In the early 90’s I was a US submariner and a bunch of us where Ironman watches with the indigo backlight. They were perfect for checking the time when the control room was rigged red for periscope depth. In fact, so many of us wore them that one of my shipmate’s told his wife about it, and since she worked in PR she pitched it to timex. A few months later they ran full page ads of a bunch of guys standing on a submarine in the dark with their wrists glowing blue. I remember the copy being super cringy (something about “lights out drills”) but it was still pretty cool.
Before the Ironman there was the Timex Atlantis, a steel bodied digital that had the same-ish screen display. I bought several of them, finding it easier to buy a new watch than getting the battery changed. I even gave a few away as gifts. Had one glued to the instrument cluster of a Honda Motorcycle for a few years too!
- I had that Casio back in 1987. My girlfriend at the time hated it on my wrist but never told me. I wish she had because she became my wife and I never would’ve married her had I known she hated my G-Shock.
HAHAHA... my wife hated my DW5600E as well, but she has come around (or at least knows I like it a lot) .. she doesn't complain about it anymore. And said she likes my GW-S5600U ?
LoL! When I had my G-Shock Square my wife didn't like it said the round shape looks better. So she likes my Rangrman GW9400-1 😁
My wife hated my black Casio Royale at the beginning. "Like a kids watch with that stupid world map!" Now in the meantime she loves it ☺️
To get my three boys into watches, I bought them all this same G for Christmas. It’s a classic. The wife discouraged me from sending them down the rabbit hole but hey, it’s lonely down here!
😂
When it actually was the 90’s I loved the Ironman. I did everything with that thing. It was indestructible. Thanks for the video Jody. 👍
Even though I love G-Shocks now, I grew up with a colorful Timex Ironman in the 90s and it was the watch hooked me into watch collecting years later.
I recently bought the Ironman for $50 Canadian; I've had a GW-5000u for quite some time. The Timex's buttons are way easier to use. I don't love the skinny fonts, but the Timex dial is surprisingly gorgeous to look at. The screen background is cleaner, the numbers are WAY bigger. For just seeing the time while you're in the gym (what I use the Timex for), Timex wins hands down. I don't love the Timex band as much as you; it's a very hard plastic that's not very comfy. I do like the keeper though. There's something attractive about the Timex that you can't see in a UA-cam video... it has a very interesting depth to the dial, while the Casio's is one-dimensional and shallow. The Casio looks a lot like it's 80's ancestor; the Timex has evolved into something completely different. When I bought the Ironman, I just wanted something for the gym that I could sweat all over, allow to get bumped, and not care about too much, because it didn't cost me anything. But I've been surprised by how much I like it... they did a really great job of creating a very nice looking and super usable beater watch. I'd recommend it without hesitation. In Canada, the Casio 5600 is also more than twice the cost of the Ironman, which would be a big factor in making a recommendation.
Packaging is a strange category. You throw it away 2 minutes after you buy the watch. Who cares if it's in a chest or a paper bag?
Great video about real world watches as always!! 🧡🔥⌚ And best voice on UA-cam!
I owned a Timex Atlantis. All my friends had an Ironman in the 80s. I just bought a new Atlantis and love it.
Wow! A blast from the past. I haven’t seen one of those in like 30yrs.
Cool video. IMO, 5600 is the better watch, but the Ironman is more endearing. I had an Ironman variant as a kid in the 90s; I loved it.
I read the title and wondered why I had never thought about this match up before? It seems so obvious now that someone has done one that it was very badly needed. Great job, sir!
In the US, the standard Timex Ironmans are often found $10 less than the basic Gshocks.
I have both. I don’t think is better than the other. I had a Timex Ironman when I was running track in college in the mid 1990’s. My purchase of one earlier this year was mostly an exercise in nostalgia.
This video provides a good comparison. Jody covered most of my thoughts and observations.
we don't wear the box, Jody.
Japanese market G-Shocks just seem to come in paper box, with the watch in a little plastic bag inside the box. My $200~ GW-S5600 came like this.
No, but a good box is always a plus if you want to travel with your watch or keep it stored for whatever reason. Will also make it a better present if you want to gift it to someone.
The packaging score having the same weight as the score for wearability or features seems wacky. If price is 2x, I suggest packaging score be 0.5x.
Two things not covered in the video:
1. The Timex allows you to display the date in an international format for us non-Americans
2. The G-Shock has that infamous receded adjust button that is a pain to operate. This one particularly bothers me as I use the timer quite often.
I really wanted to love the dw-5600 but found the Ironman a lot more usable for working out.
You have it the other way around with the date formats. Month-Day is the international format (ISO 8601), not America-specific. Day-Month is a country-specific format that I'm guessing your country prefers..
I would go Timex for the nostalgia in America during the 80’s. It was the 90’s before I heard of Gshock.
Most people (the mainstream )in the world know Casio G-Shock. I don't think most people have ever heard of a timex Iron Man outside the US. That says it all.
The Ironman was BIG in the UK, back in the day. I know someone who still wears their original as their daily!
@@rc8rider mate.....don't even try and pretend it's the same thing. You completely ignored that I specifically said the mainstream. I could go to Kenya, Mongolia, India, Russia, Morrocco, and Bolivia. And I would easily find people (as in not watch ⌚ nerds like us) who know both Casio and G-Shock. Most wouldn't have even heard of Timex. Timex is like Texas Instruments calculators. Mostly known in the US. Not in the majority of the world. The majority of the world grows up using Casio calculators in school and has never even heard of Texas Instruments. Same applies to Timex.
In the 1987 winter Book of Dreams the Casio is £35 and the Timex is £25.
I wish Timex hadn’t gone the shock route and left the classic Ironman thinner and lighter. It still won in all the important categories for actually telling time.
Funny you would put this video out today, as I'm wearing my Ironman as I watch this! I have both, too, but I find I reach for the Timex 2x as often. There's just something about that unique flat-tire face shape and the bigger number legibility. Both ultra classics, though!
I have both of these watches for the last 4 years. Few of my observations
1) The timex appears more accurate than the casio.
2) Also in the GMT mode for timex you not only select a different time , you can change the date or year too. So it technically can be an excellent time travellers watch .
3) you can add the casio g 5610 bull bar onto the timex too , if you just want to mess around
I can confirm, I am a time traveler and we exclusively use Timex because of this feature
Gotta be the G-Shock
I have 100 G-Shocks already, so it will be the Timex
It's definitely the timex

All day.
@@nate9221lol no. Only if you already have a bunch of G:s.
I had the Square Casio Model 5600 and the Timex Ironman 30 laps. I sold the Casio and kept the Timex. Why? 1) Buttons of Timex are better, in the Casio you need a pin to push the reset button, in example when you should put the Chrono in 0. 2) Timex has three alarms, and you could program daily, only working days or only weekends; Casio has only one alarm. 3) Timex has three time zones; Casio, only one. 4) Timex has a bigger display, better light and the light keep working if you are pushing any button, in order to help you perform your duty. 5) The band of Timex is more confortable and better quality. No doubt.
I am a fan of both watches. I wear a Casio G-Shock as my daily wear watch. I wear my Timex Ironman on International plane flights. It is my favorite watch on a vacation because of its easy dual-time feature (for multiple time zones), Indiglo is real easy to read in the dark, light-weight and water-proof, and cheap (not afraid to accidentally lose on trip)!
Sadly, it's less about nostalgia and more about which I can see without my glasses, these days.😢
In that case take a look at the GBX100 and GBD200 - their MIP displays are fantastic and the numerals much bigger and easier to read.
Good job Jody, but i think you missed a huge part of the backlight. The Ironman gets a 10 for backlight due to night mode! Hold down the light button for 3 seconds and a little crescent moon shows up. While in night mode a push of any button turns on the Indiglo for 3 seconds. The G Shock light is ok, but try to change your alarm or timer settings in the dark. It's a pain with the G Shock, but super easy with the Timex night mode. I don’t know how so many reviews that mention Indiglo skip over night mode. Sometimes I have to work in the dark. Night mode is the reason I keep buying Ironman watches even though i have 3 solar G Shocks with Multiband 6. I always wear an Ironman to work. I'm wearing the retro colored one from your video right now. I have a blacked out one arriving from Amazon tomorrow.
To be honest, though I suspected (correctly) which watch was going to cross the finish line first, I was really routing for the Timex. I think I, personally, would have rated the Timex higher in the "Brand " category by a point at least. Growing up in the 70's, Timex was THE affordable watch. My first watch as a boy was, in fact, a navy blue dialed Timex hand winder, similar in appearance to every other watch I had, up until that point, ever seen. The TV commercials were ubiquitous, the tag line still resonates in the zeitgeist 40 years later, and, as a bonus, the brand seems to be having a bit of a mini Renaissance lately while G-Shock is releasing grotesquely expensive special editions of watches they had in their catalog for decades.
Having said that, though, the 5600 is just a better looking accessory than the Ironman, in my opinion, at least.
I have both, the G-shock and Timex. lets just say I've forgotten were I left the Timex,..and the G-shock,.....Well it's likely be on my wrist as my body is sealed in the casket.
That was Usyk not Fury against AJ in the picture 👍
Wore the Ironman a great deal in my youth and the G-Shock for many years in the Air Force. Love them both. Thanks for the video, Jody!
I’ve been a G-Shock guy for over 30 years, having one in my modest watch collection for a true GADA. Good video, it gave me more respect for the Timex Ironman which I didn’t think could hang with the G-Shock when it came to torture testing.
I was team Ironman when I was young. I've gone G-shock since.
I guess I wouldn't be super thrilled about the added thickness of the Ironman, but the extra visibility, the fact the side pushers aren't as hard to access, and the better backlight would see me getting the Timex out of these two. If they had a solar variant I'd get one yesterday, maybe they'll get there soon as they've been rolling out more and more solar powered models, one can only hope.
And back on that indiglo backlight, the fact you can get it to trigger when you press the buttons is just such a great feature in my mind, I seriously wonder why the rest of the industry hasn't tried to copy that functionality.
If any of my squares/protreks/or edifices had that feature, I might never take them off.
Had both Watches in.. Very physical job..Casio the day all day long...so much more robust..had an Ironman which lasted months...G Shock lasted best part of 3 years..
Guessing regional differences. I have both The Ironman and the 5610U...Got the Ironman when it was on sale for about $40 Canadian which was a steal. Both also came in the same crappy cardboard like the Ironman in this video.
I’ve wanted an Ironman simply because the old Timex factory in 30 mins away in Little Rock Arkansas. The Ironman was the last model made there. Even Bill Clinton wore won, perhaps for supporting local business.
This is really good content. I have the exact G-Shock and love it, but the Timex looks good.
I think the Casio is undeniably a better watch and don't have much of a problem with that, although I really think the branding category needs some clarity. Maybe it's a regional thing and I'm out of line, but the number of Timex watches in this world is outrageous. Even when I was a kid (I'm 46 now) every single old guy wore a Timex and it's not much different now. Now these old non-watch guys have sock drawers or night stands full of old Timex watches from every period of their life. Every TV show back in the black and white TV days were sponsored by Timex. Even in the 80s, me and my friends mostly had a Timex model. (although there were a few casios around that we might have honestly liked more) So I guess it depends on how you're looking at it. If it's digital vs digital, I get it. But if it's a brand-wide, real-world popularity contest and we're looking at the whole history, it's truly not even close.
That all being said, yeah. The Casio is totally better.
Yes very regional. I’d like a Timex, I really would, I’m of the age that the Ironman was really desirable in my late teens to early 20s. But they were and still are so expensive. Result even now, when I get the itch, I go and check an Ironman’s price and for the money there always are 3 or 4 better priced Gs, even of the more modern and feature rich variety. Growing up lots of us had Casios, Timex were few and far between. And the older folk here didn’t have Timex either. My sensation is the opposite of yours, Casio is ubiquitous and worldwide, Timex is heavy in some markets, rare as hen’s teeth in others.
@@marcelovasconcellos6067 That's interesting to think about. I get it though, and absolutely believe you. I think it's easy to get caught up in your own life experience and not understand how it is elsewhere. Especially back then before the Internet started tying us together. I had the Timex watches because they WERE the less expensive ones.......with the exception of the f91w anyway. We'd wear them in the yard at recess, pressing buttons that made beeping sounds and pretend we could control the planes that flew by with them.
I've owned both over the years.. and both have been fantastic. Great competition.
I like the date alarm on the Casio. You can set the alarm for the month and day, not just for the hour and minute.
I loved the film “stranger than fiction” with Will Ferrell which features an Ironman. I bought that watch and never wear it. My dw 5600 is never off my wrist for long.
Casio over ANY Timex, anytime
My very first watch when I was 12yo was the Timex Iron Man, the *EXACT* one you showed in the old advert. I was just clearing out old boxes and found it (dead of course), it is beaten to hell the buttons on the front are cracked but I stuck a battery and wouldn't you know, it works, it runs better than I do for its age. I'm keeping it for nostalgia of course, but nowadays I wear one of my multiple G-Squares almost on the daily. This was a *Great* comparison, thank you.
I own one Timex and 100 Casios.
that doesn't look as good as you think it does haha
@@Redbodhi I wear G Shocks as ankle bracelets HUH!
Same same😂
One thing you didnt mention about the timex backlight: if you activate it and then start pressing buttons for the other functions it will stay lit indefinitely as long as youre using the functions. The casio doesnt do that
I know this is all for fun and I own and love both of these watches.. giving 3 extra points for Packaging is somewhat silly.. It shouldn’t even be a category, but if you insist, it should be even and the other 3 point advantage in the Brand category doesn’t ring true. 1000% subjective and both companies have long and impressive histories and the span between the two should be one point and that could go to either… so if you clean up those two “mistakes “ 😂.. it’s virtually a tie, with Casio with a closely fought victory.. unlike Bruno vs Tyson!!!
Lots of fun… great video. Please do more of these! Thanks as always Jody!!
If your shirt didn't make me feel old, the fact that I still have my pre-indiglo Timex does 😂
I recently picked up the Casio on a fire sale for about $25, so yes, do shop around!
I was prepared to go toe to toe with you regarding your grading of the brand, but your explanation is sound and I agree! I have them both and they fit in my collection nicely. Cheers!
After a couple years of wearing a 5610 (the only senseable option) I chose the GBD-200 as an upgrade this March. The GBD-200 has not left my right wrist ever since. The best, most legiblöe display I´ve ever had in any digital watch. Even far superior over the Garmin Fenix 6 on my left wrist.
This is like Stallone vs Schwarzenegger in the 80's. Today we love them both.
Feels a little bit like Dumbledore finding a few extra points for his favourite Gryffindor to push them over the line at the end there! Definitely agree with you though
I have both, though the Square G is the Multiband version and love them equally.
Ironman was my basic training watch, and the G-Shock was my deployment watch. Funny that you made this video and Watches of Espionage just released one about digital watches, focusing on the G-Shock on their channel.
The most amusing part for me is that when I was involved in triathlon (I only did sprint distance ones but had many friends who were Ironman-distance triathletes. I even worked at a tri store for a couple of years) and triathletes are big time gadget heads. But I never knew anyone who used a Timex Ironman watch. It was all about Garmin and Suunto. I do wonder how much $$$ World Triathlon Corp. has made from that Timex license. FYI Jody...if you find the right triathlon (one with a pool swim instead of open water) you can "walk" the pool instead of swimming it. I know, its cheesy...but if you have the desire to do one and doubt your swim skills don't let that hold you back! :)
I recently have been watching the Korean series "Life on mars". (A remake of the British series of the same name.) In where a police officer in 2018 gets wounded and ends up in a coma. And wakes up in 1988. In 1988 he wears a Timex Ironman.
That's the third version of that show. Is it any good?
I loved the British version of "Life on Mars"
@@MarkSkrzypczak Still be best. Including the 70's music.
@@1250GSX It's good. We will watch the final episode tonight.
@@MrPleers The follow up series in the 80s, "Ashes to Ashes," is right up there as well.
Hey Jodi, I usually agree with your score on these but I think there's a category or point adjustment due here for "buttons" the G is tough and recognizable with all the basics... But the Timex buttons are superior in feel and was of use...I own a free of both these lines
With the thumbnail background I got incredibly excited and thought he was reviewing the new signum Miami 😂 hope to see a review of it
The start/split button on the Timex is actually just one button. You don't have to press the left or right side of it.
Great comparison! I remember when these came out way back in the day. I wanted the G since all the cool kids (and by cool kids I mean us geeks in the computer club and D&D playing types) were getting them. My family was on a fairly strict budget but my mom managed to save up and get me the Ironman since the G-Shock was more expensive. Wore the crap out of that thing as only a young teenager could.
Fast forward to today and I have both and much prefer the G-Shock. Just love how classic it is, how it fits, how it looks and all the nostalgia of bygone days it brings back. Rarely do I ever wear the Ironman. As much as I prefer the display on the Timex and how the beep sounds when pressing the buttons, the number one reason is that keeper setup. I find it finicky and always have to wrestle with it too much to take the watch off.
Either way you can't go wrong. Both are great watches and will serve for many, many years.
Funny story - my last girlfriend HATED my square G's but after we broke up and she tried to get us back together, she suddenly loved them!
I have an Ironman classic 38. If you hold the start split button for the time zones it will swap home time and the second time.
I am glad you did this video. I wonder if MWC would give Timex as much love as you did. I have an Ironman, it is nice for the price but it is very cheap
My Ironman all day every day... was my HS and Jr. High watch...
I had an Ironman back then but started wearing G Shocks a while ago. I like both but the simple square is my favorite these days.
@bugdrvr for sure they are great watches and I wanted a G back then too. My original bit the dust in '95. Bought this reference ironman a couple of years ago mostly out of nostalgia and is my go to when I just need something that I have zero worry about. I do own a G now though too.
Im a sucker for indiglo
I’ve got both and Timex was the one I had first.
Both cracking watches and I switch them as daily wear watches.
G-shock is the better looking watch.
I’ve got a 6900, Casioak & 2000 and all superb watches.
Timex for larger numbers AND lighting but G for all else. Tough choice...
They updated that GShock model to have an LED, among other upgrades. I think it's worth seeking out over the older model featured here if someone wanted to get one. Then again, there's also a model exactly like that but with solar charging that's even better too!
I own watches from both brands and love them all, a modified square G is my daily work watch and i have many Expedition Timex's as well. The Ironman is iconic but i think the Timex Command 47 is a closer comparison, in fact i think it only exists because the G-5600 does, lol. But it's a nice piece for a marginally cheaper price than the G with a better display, it's worth a look.
The buttons on the Timex are easier to use than the Casio.
I don't own one but I like the look of the Timex x Beams all stainless steel Ironman and the OG green/positve display Nixon Regulus.
I don't think the packaging should have been included. I still wear an ironman. Thanks Jody.
In the UK, the watches are both the same price on Amazon. I'm actually surprised that the GShock is back under £50 - is been double that for a while.
I love the display on the Casio but, being someone of the larger waistline, I wouldn't feel comfortable with a watch suggesting I do triathlons. If they branded it "Allotments and Washing Machines", I'd go for it.
Casio does offer a large time display in the form of the W-96H, though it isn't a G-Shock
I have an Iron Man that wore the hell out of. Mine pretty much this one with a heart meter and a different band. I loved it, but the only reason why I stopped wearing it was the band went on it and I couldn't get a replacement. I tried looking an adapter, no dice. I did have it on my desk as a mini clock until the battery died.
I really wanna see the watch that scores better than a G-Shock for toughness after watching this. Solid video Jodi
Since I'm 70, I'm partial to the more legible one. But I'm wearing a Casio.
I have a newish ironman 8 lap (timex allows a third party company in japan to make it) looks just like President's. Everyone seemed to have it in sports back in the day
Any free Erebus T shirt going?
Mrs Starmer is having to rely on charity to be clothed in, I am sending some spare incontinence pads.
I use the Ironman as my eyes are a little older and I can read the display of the Ironman on a run. I’m not sure the button below the face is actually two separate buttons - I just press in the middle to start and record splits as I run. I also like that the two times zones can be set to 12 or 24 hours independently. You can also choose if the larger display is used for elapsed time or split time in the Chrono. Great running watch IMHO. How about the Ironman being worn by a US president. The G-shock square, however, is a better-looking watch.
The square isn't really in the same category as the Iron-man. It's more of a field or tool watch than a sports watch. You want to put the iron-man against something like a G-056 or maybe G-7700 for a more fair comparison.
Great video
Love the thumbnail!
Timex is an unheard brand in my country, so of course I heavily biased towards the G.
I am a casio fan all the way, I love my gshocks, they’re my favorite watches. That being said timex watches in my experience always have much better bands than Casios. I personally love the other timex Ironman that has the more rounded case, it’s super comfortable. But I love casio, I just like putting them on aftermarket straps most of the time.
I miss the mid 80s! ):
Had a Great Timex in the early 2000s called the Humvee it was a tough Digital with a Velcro strap loved it cant get them any more ,shame ):
Casio DW-5600 is where it's at for me. I've owned a few Timex watches throughout the years, and I do have a Shock Resist Timex Ironman that's been a good watch as well as a Timex Q GMT, but Casio has better quality control and better digital watch designs.
This is like asking me which of my two sons I love better. Well that’s simple. It’s the Casio. 😆. I think they are both great and pretty equal but Casio is the better brand IMO. Thanks for the fun comparison!
I own both and have for decades, ease of operation not discussed or rated goes to the Timex. Larger easier to push buttons a definite advantage to us with “Sausage Fingers”…😂
Let's not sod about it's the G-Shock and that's the end of it.
I got the OG reissue from timex Japan as I prefer the old school look of it! In a modern world though the gshock wins
Just ordered my Timex Ironman for 43€ @ Amazon Germany ! 😊
If you can manage to push the adjust button on the g while the stopwatch is running it will show split and basically act as a second lap timer. Not really practical since the button isn't hard to push and a two lap timer isn't as good as a basically infinite lap timer.
Only ironman rated for 200 meters. Ive done multi dives with mine. Been wearing Ironman watches since the late 80's right till 2020 and thats when I had the watch bug and bought other watches mainly Seiko
Casio all the way. Never heard of Timex until 1990's. I guess that's because we had more Japanese than American watches available locally.
Ironman just because I always have had one in my collection (3 in 30 odd years not bad for beating the s**t out of them)and for the Indigo but I think you are right g shock beats it head to head. And by the way I would buy an Armitron before a Casio but that is another story altogether.
Great video Jodie. I have both but gotta give it to the g shock on a points decision. Errrr….. just one thing at the start you said Fury vs Joshua but it’s a picture of Usyk vs Joshua in the photo. Fury’s never fought Joshua….yet! 👍
Great video as always, Jody..I really enjoyed the comparison!! I had an Ironman watch in the 90’s, and it was great..if I didn’t already own a ton of watches (including a ton of G Shocks and other Casio’s) I’d probably buy it!!
I have both and they are nearly the same with regard to my not being able to hear the alarm. 😂
IMs are usually $5-$10 cheaper in my neck of the woods. G's run around $50.
My Casio, in the Midwest, USA, was more expensive and had the same packaging as the Timex. Actually worse, it didn't have the box. And that was new in store.
If that t-shirt makes you old I’m right there with you! I own a square G, which more than does the job for footy and DIY, but I’m drawn to the Ironman for some reason. What’s one more in the collection?
I appreciate everything you said but BOO your partial to G shock and I think you gave Casio some points they didn’t deserve. However I do love the 5600 and have one in my box or maybe more then one. If I had a watch channel and I dont! ( UNFORTUNATELY ) I would have gave it to Timex because Im American and I started out with Timex! Mickey Mouse wind up and like you with Casio I have tons of them in my box. The great American brand that’s not made in America lol. Enough rambling Great video DR Watch.
I ❤ your t-shirt
G-Shock IMO 👍
I have bought multiple g-shocks from Amazon and have never gotten the tin packaging, just a cardboard box.
I never understood the concept of making "tough" watches so ridiculously big (looking at you mudmaster...). I understand they need to be bigger to make them rugged. But if I pick a rugged watch to wear during rough activities, I want it to be as small as physically possible so it has the least chance of interfering with said activity.
For that reason, I'm still sticking with the square G-shocks.
I wish Casio would/could put their negative MIP dispaly and module out of the GBD-200 in a 5000/5600 body with added multi-band 6 and tough solar.
Basically a DW-H5600 without all the health stuff that makes it too bulky and with MB6 instead of Bluetooth. Thinner and cheaper.
