I just got one of these today. I paid £67 for it which is a big saving on the RRP and with these features at that price it's a bargain. Larger than I would normally wear but some of that is the way the strap sticks out at the lugs. Thanks for the hints on the features.
Good review. Much easier than trying to read the instructions in the tiny book that comes with the watch. I could not remember how to turn the auto receiving on/off 🤔
negative variant was originally designed for local law enforcement and military services so when in dark settings there is less disturbance from the watch being found when worn.
Indeed, whats the point to notify how many minutes is left for the alarm to start beeping. I have the Gtavitymaster GR-B100, it has the same weird function. How ever, the alarm can be scheduled to daily, weekly or any specific date.
Awesome watch review - I would like to see when reviewing watches with luminous faces how long the luminosity lasts after dark and receiving a light source as some watches use different elements to make the hands luminous. Other wise awesome review!
Die Uhr trägt sich sehr angenehm. Das negativ Display ist leider nicht gut abzulesen, vielmals ist auch gerade der Zeiger vor dem Display. Mühsam mit dem hands Modus versetzen.
So buy the smaller, but same functions, G-Shock AWG. The backlight is weaker but the models with black on white digital display are over all easier to read,
After owning this watch for some time, I can honestly say Casio have dropped a huge clanger with the negative display. It's far too dull and can only be seen in the brightest of light.
Struggling to place your accent. I know it's German (I'd be embarrassed if it isn't). I want to say Bohemia. Anyway, this watch, as much as I love it, it is a colossal pain in the arse to do anything with. I use a F91W for a daily and it's just so easy to use
It is automatic DST, when you recieve signal with the Multiband 6, it changes it automaticly, when DST is active for summer or off for winter. Otherwise, you can change it manually via adjust.
Finally a G-Shock which doesn't look like toy for 10yo boys. I especially like that black+silver finish, muted text and no other colors. However, I will probably still don't buy it because I can't stand those side screws which are there probably only for decoration, so that idiots think that those screws make it more sturdy. If those screws are for decoration, it shows contempt for customers.
Also another stupid thing from g-shock is when setting the analog, in case not matching digital timing, both gauges has to be on 12 or it will not synchronized....
BASIC BEFORE AEVANCED. WATCH IS SET FOR CORRECT TIME ZOME BUT TIME SHOWN IS FOR TIME ZONE IT WAS IN WHEN I UNBOXED IT. HOW TYO SET DST. PROVIDED MANUAL IS AWFUL! POORLY WRITTEN AND THEN POORLY TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH. "YOU CAN SET" "YPOU CAN SCROOL" HOW? THAT YOU KNOW IS NO HELP FOR THE NEW WHO COME HERE FOR ADVICE.
Your argument makes no sense since the thing with the up and down buttons is also like that on other digital casio watches that don't have any analog hands. It's just confusing that it is counting DOWN when you push the UPPER button.
I was given one of these watches for my birthday, from my son last week. It’s a great watch and thank you for the ‘how to’ video.
All the best.👍🏾🇬🇧😊

John m, I am interested in buying the watch and based in the UK. Where did you purchase your watch for £67?
Thanks dude! I'm thinking of getting the GAS-100 in the new Neo Tokyo color scheme, and you made that decision a lot easier.
Just got my first proper G-Shock, thanks for helping me set it up and understand all the features.. Thanks mate!
Many thanks for this guide. My watch arrived yesterday and your guide was invaluable in getting it all set up quickly and correctly.
Great helpful review/user guide. Just bought one and think it’s great. Ordering the red version tonight. Keep up the good work! 👍👀🇬🇧👌⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Many thanks for your in depth tutorial just what was needed! following the instruction leaflet was a challenge!!.
Good review. Much easier than trying to read the instructions in the tiny book that comes with the watch. I could not remember how to turn the auto receiving on/off 🤔
just unpacked this watch, seems very nice for now
I recently aquired the GAS version. It features standard (non-reversed) displays and I find them easier to read. These Casio models are very nice
Thank you very much for a detailed demo video. It helped me today as I bought the same watch for myself. Thanks again!
I find the negative LCDs impossible to read when not in brightest light. There's two other variants with positive LCDs which are way more legible.
negative variant was originally designed for local law enforcement and military services so when in dark settings there is less disturbance from the watch being found when worn.
Thank you for sharing, have mine upgradet with sapphire crystal and Superluminova, love it!
I have the GAS model. But this helped me out. Thank you!
I think the reverse and forward buttons refer to the direction of time rather than up and down.
Great review. Although I must admit that I like the Forward and Reverse buttons where they are, it seems natural that way. I suppose its subjective.
I agree! One can think of Forward as Clockwise, and Reverse as Counterclockwise, if that helps making the button placement more logical.
LT is for the light, L1, L2 and L3 stand for the signal level..other than that, good review..and nice watch.

Useful for sailing regattas

Amazing review, keep it up 👍👏
6:07 Is it possible to calibrate the hour hand at exactly 12 o'clock and the minute hand?
You want to adjust the hour hand and the minute hand separately. This isn't possible. Not even on a real analog watch.
should i buy this or the ga b2100?
Great video, very well explained, thank you for sharing, God Bless
Moin,
Wie trägt die uhr sich so?
Ist das negativ Display gut abzulesen?
LG Mario

Thank you, very informative and easy to follow tuition on set up.👍👍👍👍
Thanks. Helpful and informative. Just bought one and the manual is now a step up for my hamster.
So buy the smaller, but same functions, G-Shock AWG. The backlight is weaker but the models with black on white digital display are over all easier to read,
Great review. Thanks.
Can you set seconds with the countdown timer?
After owning this watch for some time, I can honestly say Casio have dropped a huge clanger with the negative display. It's far too dull and can only be seen in the brightest of light.
not necessarily think how many law enforcement people who need negative display on a watch. So that market is high and would easily get sales.

Dear Sir, please explain how do you get this (Auto) when setting Dst? I have only ON or Off but auto I don't see??
It is automatic DST, when you recieve signal with the Multiband 6, it changes it automaticly, when DST is active for summer or off for winter. Otherwise, you can change it manually via adjust.
Thanks
How do i change the day, from saturday to sunday?
You can't. You can only change the date. The day will then be set automatically.
I actually just made sure the date was correct and it just changed it automatically. Thanks!
Brilliant watch.
Thank you 🙏 ✔️
Very helpful indeed.
Very nice and detailed video

Just put in the section where the time can be set .
Also another stupid thing from g-shock is when setting the analog, in case not matching digital timing, both gauges has to be on 12 or it will not synchronized....
Sir: Pls advise Gas 100B battery specification. MOST URGENT
very helpful thanks
Cool 😎
How could I connect it to my phone? I'm trying to pair it to my gshock app, but its not pairing? Help please. Thanks
This watch has no bluetooth. You can't connect it to your phone. What made you think that you could do that?
@@freund333 that's why I'm asking! Because I'm not sure. But thanks for the reply.
Cool. A watch with displays you can hardly read.

"YOU CAN SET" "YPOU CAN SCROOL" HOW? THAT YOU KNOW IS NO HELP FOR THE NEW WHO COME HERE FOR ADVICE.
Thanks!
The instructions that come with watch are the worst !

I can't see shit on those black LCDs .. I pass ...
You can get rid watch with normal positive LCD displays.
what a stupid comment about the up and down button. the reason why casio did it on this watch is because of the analogue hands direction of rotation.
Your argument makes no sense since the thing with the up and down buttons is also like that on other digital casio watches that don't have any analog hands. It's just confusing that it is counting DOWN when you push the UPPER button.
What features does it haVe - not haS.
