    I picked up a blue manga in Aus. Very happy with it.
    I feel there are other colour ways coming - orange & green would be excellent.

    Can you please do a video or provide info on getting to and visiting the whale sharks please?
    It’s on my bucket list.

      There are a multitude of tours up at Ningaloo reef. To get there you would need to get to Perth first and then a flight to Exmouth. Remember it is a seasonal activity and based on coral spawns, so you'd need to target during the Australian Winter. Let me have a think about how I could do a video about it,

    I'm not too fussed that the new Gravitymaster doesn't have any sensors - I own the gwr-b1000 and it doesn't have any sensors either, but it does have a carbon monocoque case, a carbon insert band and titanium pushers, which pushed the boundaries when it was released. However I do feel like this grb300 is a step backwards, as they have essentially re-cased the gst-b100 and labelled it a Gravitymaster...

      Appreciate the insights mate, this one did advertise carbon core guard though, how different is that to what you were highlighting with the carbon monocoque case? Cheers….

    • @g_shock_macro
      @g_shock_macro Місяць тому

      The carbon core guard is a carbon fibre reinforced resin case that protects the module with the addition of a backplate, which is usually steel. Whereas the carbon monocoque case unifies the case and backplate into one piece. The gwr-b1000, the gwf-a1000 and the new carbon square implement this structure.

    New here - great channel. Not a fan of the pricing on those Manga's, especially secondary - hard pass. The new GravityMaster....hmmm...really hard to beat my GW-A1100KH-3AJF, tough solar, sapphire glass (yep), MB-6 and great color (army green). This one is a big favorite in the G-Shock sub collection (mechanical watches primary passion). Since they released the new GM, I started looking around for a second or something similar. Landed on the GW-3000B-1AJF after research - great color scheme with the black / orange. Tough solar and MB6 - found a great example coming in from Japan off Buyee. I really love looking into the past for value with G-shock as I think there are so many great models and deals to be found compared to today's modern releases / pricing.

      Mate, thanks for the support and taking the time to comment. That GW-A1100KH-3AJF of yours looks incredible, the highlights of orange on army green look awesome, there are many people, including myself who would love that, in fact there is someone specific who I know would appreciate it, even though he is a navy guy! I think I am going to go hunt that down myself!

There is a great video on it on YTube which inspired me to get it couple years back - done by Gshock High Fashion - he does a great job. Picked mine up off Buyee, was new, for a tick under $440 USD, all in. The search is half the fun - good luck!!

    I am afraid I think the new Gravitymaster is pretty poor. Ever since the GPW-2000 I think this series has been going down market. For me I would rather have a watch about £800 with GPS like the GPW2000. I would absolutely love it if Casio bought out a GPW-3000 with GPS and a bit smaller and thinner than the GPW-2000. In the UK as long as you were reasonably quick on launch day you could get one at retail. I imported the white one before Casio UK announced that they would both be sold here. Someone said that there were only a few hundred of each for the UK. I like the long form videos BTW.

      Cheers mate, really appreciate you spending some time to provide your thoughts… I do like the look, but agree with you, would love some more of the tech in the watch. Honestly, even though I dont use it, I would just like to know I have it, kinda like what I see in the Mudmaster and Rangemans… What are your thoughts on the look aspect though… if it had those features in the same watch, would it be higher on the consideration? Finally, thank you so much for the support of the video format… I am always trying to work out what works, the shorter stuff, or more of the discussion… love the support!
