    Today we are reviewing the giveaway watch, GAB2100 also known as the Casioak.
    After the success of the regular GA2100 ot was only a matter of time before Casio expanded on the collection and this one, with its tough solar and Bluetooth technology is the best so far, in my opinion!
    The rest of the watch is the same as the regular GA-2100 which means it is one of the thinnest and smallest GShocks you can buy.

    Cool watch but that 60min timer limit and the fact that they replaced the day subdial with modes/battery charge is a shame. To still remain independent from the smartphone they could have added a mode showing low mid high battery charge and leave the day subdial as it is on the original .

    I recently bought a yellow one. The resin band and case have been rubbing against the case, making a really frustrating squeaky sound when there’s wrist movement.

I’ve seen others commenting on this and videos documenting the same problem

      @@adyyzels I see where you’re coming from. Most of my watches are on the heavier side as well - dive watches, often on bracelets. It’s a matter of personal taste, of course, but having spent the last few weeks wearing this resin model, I must say I forgot how good resin g-shocks are. If you like heftier watches, perhaps you could consider the more premium screw-back models like the GW5000U or try out the full-metal series. I enjoy the DLC polished case-back, the flexible and airy bracelet, and the general high quality finish of the watch. The only downside is the lack of a sapphire crystal. In any case, I’m glad you found a way to make your first g-shock worked for you

The missing minute markers and the negative LCD display are a huge turn off. I'd never buy one myself, not even the never GAB-2100.
