    Excellent video! I used to wear my Casio G-Shock GX-56GB, then switched to an Apple Watch, then Garmin Fenix 6X….now I’m thinking of another Casio G-Shock…or the Garmin Instinct Tactical 2X Solar…..I’m in a similar dilemma!

      Get the Instinct 2X! I would but it's bigger than a G-Shock so I'll stick with the Suunto for now. Though I'm tempted to downgrade to a Suunto Traverse Alpha. I found that I don't need the heart rate and blood oxygen thing 🙄

    I just buy the GBD about 3 weeks ago and before I have the apple watch; in my opinion i'm very satisfied with the casio, the gps running very good, the heart rate also, swimming... the night mode...; the truth is a very competitive watch. The battery support 1 week training 2h per day. I'm going to put the apple watch to sell. I bought the casio vs the garmin for the design and casio seems more durable to me. All the best!

Because I like the g schock more( I don’t really need all of the better tech that the garmin have) , but it might just look a little bit too big considering I’m an 18 y.o. What do you say?

      But if you want better tracking, better support and community, go with the instinct 2.

      I would've loved it to have at least the breadcrumbs features of the GPR1000 BUT it's still a rugged, long lasting watch.
      With both the DWH5600 and GBDH2000, the sleep tracker took more than the "2 nights" threshold to start tracking too.
      And between Garmin and Suunto "flashlight" (Excluding the ones with actual LED light)…the Suunto wins. Way brighter.
