G-Shock X-Large GA100

Good watch. I bought it for my son. Way too big big for his wrists. But its virtually in destructible. He loves it.

Excellent product. I really love it.

El reloj cumple muy bien con sus funciones. No tuve ningún problema

I have had three of the same Timex Ironman watches over the years. The big problem that I had was that first the loop for excess band length would break--- that was easily remedied by using an o-ring to replace it. Then within a couple of months of that the band would always break. I have tried to find a replacement band without luck. Unfortunately the band has a non straight end that keys into the watch body which more or less prevents using an aftermarket band of any type. Plus I wanted something different. So this time around (no pun intended!) I decided on finding a watch that I can get a band for and over the holidays I saw a G-Shock at a local store and it stuck in my mind. This is for a everyday watch that I wear and the functions that really matter are time and date--- the rest is just the proverbial "added bonus". So I could not decide between this one and the one that is all black--- so with free returns I bought both as well as one other to try out. The other was fine, but simply too small in diameter. Maybe when I was in my teens it would work, but as an adult--- just didn't look large enough. So I sat both this one with the red and the all black side by side. I kept using the functions and it really came down to reality--- I need to be able to see the face as easily as possible. So the all black that has all black lettering and the black inverted display on the digital part--- I know it will bother me over time and I will learn not to like it. So I decided to keep this one. I do like the red accents and the buttons are clearly labeled plus the display may not be as sexy as the other in black, but it is easier to see all the time. And as far as the red hour hand being hard to see--- for me it is not a problem. I have made a point of looking at it at different parts of the day--- it is always normal to read. Yes the hands do get in the way of the digital readout at specific times of the day, but for me it is not a big deal. Overall styling is great for a resin type watch and it feels good on my wrist. As far as size, it is almost exactly 2" from button to button on the diagonal and is about 1/2" thick. I thought it may have been too big, but it is just right. As far as price--- compared to some similar watches in the same range--- I will stick with the G-Shock. I have also ordered a spare band so that when it does eventually break--- I will have a spare ready to go. For setup I never even read the book. Took less than 1-minute to do and the longest part was scrolling through the time zones and then remembering if we are on DST or not. As far as the backlight it is amber and factory set for 1-second. After reading another review on the all black version--- in the adjustment menu there is the option to change it to 3-second which I did. Again, easy to do and happy with it!

Exactly what i wanted from the watch quality is good, it is also nice and light, looks bulky but it doesnt feel it.
