    14+ years contracting (Iraq-Afghanistan and some in Oman) had one leather Fossil wallet,one pair of Wolverine boots and 2 G- Shock. The first one I had years prior that the strap finally broke 11 years in and the second G-Shock (solar) I bought at the PX In Oman which I still have 10 years later.

    I have the slightly larger cousin of this watch with the little turbine blade that spins around - the GST-B400BD-1A2. It is by far one of my favorite practical watches to wear and it is nice to have a G-Shock that is not oversized on my 6.5" wrist. I agree with all your points about these watches. The spring bar links, the fact I can swap out the metal bracelet with the resin strap easily, the usability of the buttons, and the Bluetooth and phone app makes setting time a breeze. The metal bracelet is a bit noisy with its pressed clasp but this is offset by the other good points of this watch.

    I am a diehard G-Shock fan. They are awesome everyday watches. I hike, camp, ski, go to the gym, etc. I like having a timepiece on me at all times that I know won't break if I bang it up against something. If it get a ding or scratch here or there, it's not the end of the world. In fact, it gives it some character. I take care of my stuff of course, but things happen. I bring out nicer watches for more fancy occasions.

    If you want a larger version, look to the B400 version of this watch. That is the one I have and love it for casual nights out, I have been thinking about this smaller b600 for use with a sleeved shirt. The polished hands show nicer than the blacked out ones on the B400 as well. Hopefully we see more variants of these G-Steel like they did with the B400. Oh and with G-Shock, the Bluetooth is optional, fully functional without it. It only uses BT when syncing so I have my BT Casio watches sync manually since 4 times a day is too much for my taste.

G-Shock is an honest to God great brand and a great company. Rolex plays games with it's customers (you know what I mean with wait list and making you buy models you don't like to have a sales history in hopes to get the hot model that you want) nobody like Rolex, everybody loves Casio.

    Excellent video, sir. Short and to-the-point. I think Casio really hit the sweet spot with this sizing. I also think it pivots very smoothly between a "suited-up" look vs jeans and a tee shirt. It looks smart either way. I appreciate your round-down mentality. I've used that before with my wife as well, and it just makes ya feel better about life in general... (lol). I'm definitely picking this one up but I'm torn between this full metal w/bracelet or the silicon/rubber band version you also showed. Do you know if one can swap out the bracelet on this model for the silicon/rubber band? That would make it almost perfect...Anyway, great job on the vid. New sub here

A watch for every occasion. Btw. showed the Rolex comparison to my colleague and Casio looked most desirable to both of us... Finally as a side note, you look alot like the great comedian Michael Davis :)
