I love your videos I got the ga 710-1a2 which is the same thing because of the modul and also the buckle it's stainless steel. I got this watch about 1 year ago and I also have the dw9052 for daily use.
It’s been almost a year searching…other blogs are a little confusing. This video on the other hand is just amazing!!! Instructions & guidelines are very clear. Thank you so much…my Son can use his watch again.
My name is Tomas and i had a problem with the time hands and was about to return the watch.I realy like that watch!!You sawed me from a huge mistake!!You're the best!!! THANK YOU FOR THAT PROFESIONAL EXPLANATION!! THANK YOU
Just got mine few days ago here in Nigeria- all black, and i'm loving every bit of it.This machine is da beast! Thumbs up to ur vids.ur work is magnificently magnanimous!!!
THANK YOU for taking your time to make my life and others easier . I am a retired power lineman I had the same Casio g shock for a long time beat watch I have ever owned it has been through a lot of abuse being a power lineman what I liked the most was it was mostly hard plastic ( not that I think it would have mattered if I ever made contact with a live power line ) but I did not want a pocket watch because they are all medal true lineman boots are have wood and no metal in them any way my old watch is still working but all of the plastic has dry rotted away I did contact Casio they told me they do make any parts for that model anymore. So my wife surprise me with this new model no 5522 I was like wow but was having a hard time settling it the hands was off I couldn’t figure what I was doing wrong and that was one of the first things you showed. I was like that got to be it . But I learned so much from your video. Thank you so much for making your video is it okay if I share your page on Facebook for my getting older friends to see where they can get help too . Thanks again
Watch Geek, I just got this watch and was soooo confused with the tiny words in the instruction book that I needed a magnifying glass to read. I came across your video and I must say that setting up and using my watch is sooo much easier! Thanks brother, you get 2 thumbs up! I’m about to watch your video on the GG-1000 Mudmaster as I was considering buying one. Again, awesome job with your videos!
I have to thank you for making these videos. I have recently purchased a few G Shocks both as gifts and for myself, and your videos have helped me setup each one of them. I can’t imagine the amount of “homework” and time that it must take to do each one of these videos. I sincerely thank you for the work that you do. You definitely have a new subscriber. Again, thank you.
Thank you for your assistance, I was about to throw this watch in the trash. I was getting frustrated trying to get the hands to match up with the digital display. After watching this video all is good now. Thank you again!
Thank you! I was watching another video for the GA-700 but found it too confusing (this is my first G-Shock, but not my first Casio). I wanted to set the illuminator timer to 3 seconds too, did it easily thanks to your tutorial.
I have this in adrenaline red and I love it it sucks at night due to no backlight and the led doesn’t work very well it doesn’t help that the hands are the same color as the face you literally cannot see the time at night using the led light the hands are basically camouflaged against the face but love it during the day very badasss
As everyone else has said, THANK YOU. I too was having problems with the instructions. You explained it in simple terms in under 1/2 hour. Again, thanks
People will may not believe me if I said that I have had this watch for almost 2 years now and I just found out how to fix the time today 😂😂😂 thanks for posting this video so helpful 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
This is one of the best review and tutorial on RUclips. I will surely recommend this channel to everyone who owns a g shock or would like to own one in future. Thanks for uploading such tutorials. I bought this watch a few months ago but only after watching this tutorial I know almost all of its functions. Extremely helpful 😊👌👍👏
Hi Watch Geek, thank you for posting such a professional informative video. I purchased this exact model yesterday and encountered an issue whereby the hands were not in sync with the digital display. As the manual which accompanied the watch provided fairly vague information I decided to check online. After finding and watching your tutorial video I was able to rectify the problem. Within minutes my new G-Shock was functioning perfectly. Thank you again ☺️
Watch Geek, I am a fan of the G-Shock range for a long time. I also have a G-7900 but might even add to this after watching you videos. Thanks again for the assistance. Have a good day
Nightmare Man agreed!! Frst tme i wear it, it really big for me since this is the biggest wtch i have owned, but then bcs of the design was so cool and tough, it really mke a statement. I love it😄😄😎😎 its very easy to read.
i had this watch for months now and only had the digital time set until i saw this video now i am in the game with both analog and digital is correct and i can operate all functions.
Just ordered this watch, so I'll be back to watch this again, at least once more. Update; just got it and it really is a nice watch, big like you said but not ridiculous big. Very wearable and readable.
Thank you sir for making this video I watch it all the time when I need to make adjustments on mine. It's so much easier then reading the instructions you did a great job explaining everything. Please don't ever take this video down lol.
+Robert Sanchez that is one of the BEST bang for buck watches put there, I am wearing mine as I type 😄 It has one of the best modules Casio made in one of the most iconic cases Casio made and all that for $65!!
Just thanking you again for the effort on this video. It is a virtual manual with I would say, all of the details the owner/wearer needs to know. I checked back coz I forgot to calibrate the hands with the digitals 😅 Again, thank you!
You do a superb job at providing the review of a watch and tutorial. I don't read the manuals, I look up your video first before even buying one actually and then learn every aspect from your knowledge relayed so skillfully in your videos. I've bought the GW9400-1 and GA700-A1 5522 (this video) and enjoy the experience so much more because of what you provide. You rock!! Thanks for you what you do and how well you do it.
Casio 5522 G Shock is an amazing watch. The instructions though were hard to follow! I saw this video and it helped out so much! Thanks to you I was able to work it out. Thumbs up!
Thank you so, so much for this video and yes, this is the best simplist step by step tutorial.. I am so grateful because the manual to these watches are ridiculous and instructions don't make sense.. Once again Thank you🤗🤗🙏🤗🤗
This is my first G Shock which I bought today. Thank you very much for your tutorial, I don't feel like a total goose now. You explain things very well, you do a top job. Thanks again. I've got a few more Casios lined up to get :-)
just got this watch yesterday (10/17/230 didn't realize this model was so old. Very affordable and I bought all of the colors. Nevertheless thanks for the video, informative.
Hey man my arms were showing something else so after watching this vedio I learned how to keep both digital and arm time the same!!!!! Thanks for sharing this info !!! You are awesome... keep up the good work 👏
After watching your tutorial many times on the GA 700, GA 800 and GBA 800, I also watched a quick comparison between the GA 700 & GA 800 (gshock highfashion) I decided to order the GA 700, can't wait for it to arrive so I can play with it from what I have been learning from your tutorial video. Thank you very much again. If you have a watch shop and you live in Australia I will go to your shop every time I buy a new watch :).
Just got this watch today and I couldn’t figure out how to set the time and you helped me out a lot!!! I wish it had a better light so I can actually see it in the dark
Great job on this video. Very informative. I have fat fingers and when I bought this I started messing with it and I did something and I got irritated to say the least. You saved the day. Thanks. Maybe you can fix my Omega. 😊
Thanks a lot, Didn't have a manual for these watch and I kept adjusting the time but the hands mark a different time then I saw you wonderful video and now the watch is working perfectly. Thanks again.
*_Another superb and phenomenal review WG!!! One thing that probably slipped your mind was the ability to exit any mode and return straightway to Home Time Mode. This is accomplished by the depressing of the C button or Mode for about three seconds. "TIME Hold" will begin to flash in the bottom LCD panel. When the C button is depressed long enough, you'll hear two succinct high tone beeps and you're back to HTM. This function is also available in the WVA-M640 Casio Non-G-Shock model. Other than that, you covered everything._* *_If I can get my hands on the GA-700-1A I'll be a contented camper. I have the red GA-700-4A as pictured in my avatar, the all black with grey accents GA700-1B, and the black and navy GA710-1A2. But man the GA-700-1A with that majestic RED contrast is awe inspiring._*
Thank you for letting me know this about the shortcut. The GA700-1A with the red accents is a very sharp looking watch. I like all the features that it has. Especially the one button push stopwatch. The one button push stopwatch reminds me of same feature that all automatic and manual wind chronographs had in them back in the 1960's and 1970's. I've had my GA700-1A for around 3 years. I purchased mine brand new and never wore it. Instead, I put it in storage when I got it. Well, I just took it out of storage a few days ago to start wearing it. This watch has grown on me so much that I ordered 2 more GA700's. The all black with grey accents GA700-1B and the GA700BMC-1A Neo Tokyo with the red and yellow painted hour and minute hands. I'm also thinking of getting another extra GA700-1A with the red accents and positive LCD display to have as a back up to the one that I already own. The three GA700 models that I mention here are my 3 favorite out of the entire GA700 line up. The GA700 looks very tough and heavy duty. The GA700's design is very tactical looking and it has a masculine look to it. It has presence on the wrist and is very light and comfortable to wear. I will rotate wearing all 3 of my GA700's with my three GWG1000 Mudmasters and my collection of Citizen Eco-Drive Skyhawks.
@@georgeg1947 *_I hear you man! If you're enamored with the GA700, I dare you to give the GA-800 a try. The only difference between the GA700 & the GA800, is the 800 has Dual Time Mode w/ Time Swap - rather than World Time Mode -, Recall Mode from past and current SWM times, and no Target Time in SWM. Other than that, the features are akin, especially the shortcut to HTM. The profile of the 800 isn't as bulky and big as the 700 but it's still just as nice as the 700. The bonus with the GA700 is the second hand ticker. With that bonus you get the Alarm Mode off/on indicator & a Time Recall Mode counter indicator. I honestly don't know which model I like the best. I have two red 700s (GA-700-4A), one to work in and one as a back up. I've yet to acquire the GA700-1A with those red accents that you mentioned. In fact, I don't have one positive LCD screen 700. My other two 700s are the black and grey 700-1B that you mentioned and the black one with the navy accents. I thought I was buying the black and blue 700 with the positive screen but because of a delay in shipping, the seller also bestowed upon me a GA110RG-1A for my patience in waiting for the package to arrive._*
@Eudtg Laery, I already have two GA-800 G-Shocks with the positive lcd display. I like GA-800 very much. Both the GA-700 and the GA-800 are excellent models to own and wear. I ended up purchasing a total of (12) twelve different GA-700 G-Shocks with different colored dials with both positive and negative lcd displays. Mostly with the negative lcd displays. I’ve been wearing them all in rotation. You can say that I went crazy with this model and that I went on a binge with the GA-700. I love the GA-700 model with the shiny orange dial and black/orange hands. I also like the tan military model as well as the model with the gold hands and markers with the black dial and yellow positive lcd display. I basically went nuts over this model and ended up buying most of the GA-800 models except for the white, blue, red, clear, and shiny black bezel ones. Meanwhile, I also dug up my 7 year old all black Suunto Core from 2013 that’s been sitting in my sock drawer for the last 6 years and I ordered a new battery and battery hatch gasket for it so I can bring it back to life and start wearing it in rotation together with my collection of GA-800’s and Citizen Skyhawks. I don’t know what it is, but I really miss the all black Suunto Core. I’m getting drawn to this model. I haven’t worn it on my wrist now for at least 6 years. The all black Core was very popular among Special Forces personnel back in the mid 2000’s in Afghanistan and in Iraq. The all black Suunto Core is a very nice looking watch and it’s very noticeable when worn on the wrist. It’s like spotting someone wearing a 1970’s James Bond Rolex Submariner. You just cannot miss it on someone’s wrist. It cannot go unnoticed. You don’t see this particular model being worn on people’s wrists anymore. Maybe that’s why the all black Suunto Core has become such a conversation piece. It’s a very beautiful and sharp looking watch and very noticeable when worn on the wrist. I recently accidentally found an excellent deal online for the all black Suunto Core for really cheap money for between $100 and $128 each before tax, so I ordered 6 more of them to have in my collection as backups just in case my 7 year old all black Core breaks, gets damaged or gets lost/stolen. Four of them cost $106 each and the other two cost $135 each with the tax included. At this cheap low price, I couldn’t help buying more than one Core watch. Especially when the all black Suunto Core model is listed brand new for between $190 to $200 and more on eBay and REI Sports. Sellers on eBay are asking $85 to $200 for the Core in used condition. So I think that the $106 and $135 that I paid for this particular model brand new is definitely not a bad deal. I saved myself between $510 to $600 combined on all 6 watches. I felt that it was a good idea to have more than one in my collection before this particular model gets discontinued or becomes rare/scarce to find. I will at least have an extra 6 brand new NOS all black Suunto Core watches on hand for future usage if needed. I’m currently also looking to purchase 1 or 2 of the Core models with the positive lcd display to have in conjunction with the all black models. After this purchase, I’m going to refrain from purchasing anymore watches for the remainder of the year or even longer. I have too many watches in my collection and I don’t have anymore room for more. I want to be able to wear and enjoy my GA-800 collection together with all my Suunto Cores, Citizen Skyhawks, Citizen Eco-Drive chronographs and my various divers watch collection. If I do make anymore watch purchases down the road in the long run, it’s got to be for a watch that’s unique which will catch my eye just like the GA-700 and all black Suunto Core did.
George G *_I hear you man!! The Swiss made Suuntos catch my eye too. Never owned one though. I’ve only seen the black negative models in person. I don’t t know if they were the Core models that you asserted or not. The only thing I don’t like about them is the glass/crystal appears to be flush with the bezel. I don’t even like Casios with that profile. I prefer a recessed crystal with the bezel serving as a sentry to the glass so it won’t be readily scratched._* *_You have a hefty timepiece collection. I find myself having insufficient storage in watch cases too. I don’t reason aright to say “desist buying watches Eudtg”. Rather covetousness overwhelms me & says “you just need more watch cases for more watches, silly”. 🤦🏾♂️_*
@ Eudtg Laery, All the Suunto watches are made in Finland for the exception of the Core model which is made in China. The Core that I own and the other 6 that I ordered are all with the black negative display. They all retain the original 2007 design. They all have a recessed mineral crystal that’s embedded below the black aluminum rotating bezel. The crystal is not flush with the black resin watch case or with the rotating bezel. It’s recessed deep below the aluminum rotating bezel making it hard to scratch the crystal. I don’t like flush crystals that are exposed either. The Suunto model that you are thinking of that has a flush crystal is probably one of the much newer sport models that have gps in them or their computer dive watches. All of the current Suunto sport and dive models all have flush mineral crystals on them just like the Casio watches that you mentioned. The Core is the only model that has a recessed crystal. If you do a search on RUclips or eBay, you will find the model that I own. The black rotating bezel on the Core has silver numbers on it that show the degrees of a complete circle from 0 degrees to 360 degrees. There’s also two oval luminous pips at the 12:00 o’clock position on the aluminum rotating bezel. As for storage, I have a few watch cases but I don’t have the room for anymore watch cases, so I store my watches in bureau drawers and end table drawers cushioned between socks, undershirts and t-shirts. I try to keep them spaced apart so they don’t rub against each other so they don’t get scratched.
I recently just purchased a brand new GA 700. I find your tutorial 1000 times better than the fine manual it comes with, my only problem is I can hardly see the digital display, can this be adjusted or do I have a faulty G stock? Awaiting your humble reply.
Thank you, you're a legend. Had this watch today and I was baffled as to how to set it and the included instruction manual needs a microscope to read. Found your video and now it's all set up 👍
this was an amazing and straight forward tutorial with a great explanation of each of the functions and uses! Thank you for this, it made understanding my new watch beyond easier than the actual manual it came with!
I just watched your video with my GA-700 in my hand, and just realized it has really lots of feature. I'm not a Gshock fan, but this watch really got me! Gonna collect another color series of this GA! Thanks for making a great review and tutorial video!
I decided go for this GA 700 1ADR bcs of this details video ... lol.. it was sooo hard to choose gshock color since tht all color are looks nice! But then agn, after wearing it for some time its kinda acceptable due to its bigger design large and tick, and bcs of this model is black its really not tht bad in my wrist after all.
I wish there was a way to brighten the background of the digital screen of my watch. It's very dark, and the light is so small, it barely illuminates the analog dial.
Thks for your A to Z explanation on all the functions of the G-Shock GA-700 watch...it was more than enough especially with your detailed & careful explanations. Unfortunately, there's 1 important feature you left out that many people buy this G-Shock for in the 1st place...the water resistance to 20 bars! I was hoping that some part of your 25 min vlog had some part of that vitally important feature, but it didn't. Both thumbs up for you but only 3 out of 5 stars for the rating...1 star taken bc it was an easy mistake & the other star bc of the importance of this watch being resistant to H²O at 20 bar & the meaning behind it all.
My watch arms wasnt show the right time after i watched your video i fixed it thank you so much also you teach me lots of thing my 2 year old watch has allready have but i dont use it at all so thank you
No need to refer manual anymore...nice and clean detailed demonstration...good job man...btw today I ordered this beast online...going to have my 4th G-Shock 🤗 *GLS-8900, GD-120, G-9000 and GA-700 yet te receive ...super exited 🤪wish me luck man 🤩😇
Go for GG-1000 than the MUDMASTER actually G-9000 is for those who cant' afford GG-1000 or its a cutt off version of the MUD RESISTANT SERIES what I think ....and yes GA-700 is indeed a nice looking one and yes this the first G-shock ever of my collection which has hands in it rest are all digital...but one thing I do agree with you about the plastic BUCKLE I hav't seen any G-shoch with plastic buckle and another thing I dnt understand that why CASIO skimp the AUTO LIGHT feature in this model...though its not a big deal but still I dnt understand the reason behind it...nyz thanks man :-)
I can't seem to set mine for Ohio's EST...there isn't a digital EST setting, it goes NY then..so I am having trouble getting it set up. I do know once it is set up the watch is going to perform flawlessly. This was a great explanation and review of the watch. Chicago..
Nice.. Just got this watch today but wasn't expecting the auto lighting ain't available on this model. Nevertheless, I'm still satisfied with the quality, design, feels and didn't remember when was the last time I bought a new watch 😂
Just watched (excuse the pun lol),and I was the very person who you was talking about in your video, but you just really educated me with this watch,as my step son gave me this watch as a present, but I didn't know anything about it until I watched your video,so thank you for your help, stay safe and kind regards Andy 👍💯, YNWA

just bought this watch, it soo big compare to my previous mudman G9000, but it so easy to read and i like the design so much.
Yes , this watch definitely makes a statement and has that tactical , manly look. I bought this and the GG 1000 recently and love them both equally.
Does your watch make a ticking noise when the arms move and when the tile changes? I just bought mine and was wondering if your does the same.
Nightmare Man agreed!! Frst tme i wear it, it really big for me since this is the biggest wtch i have owned, but then bcs of the design was so cool and tough, it really mke a statement. I love it😄😄😎😎 its very easy to read.
Rafael Lupian no man, mine was fine. Bought original from casio so far no issue at all, its comfortable to wear and vry easy to read.

i had this watch for months now and only had the digital time set until i saw this video now i am in the game

Yes , this watch is bad ass for sure.

First time owning a G-Shock and wanted to know all about it and how to set up and you did just that great video👍🏽👍🏽
I just got one of these today as a Christmas gift. It's the tan model. I absolutely love it.
Thank you sir for making this video I watch it all the time when I need to make adjustments on mine. It's so much easier then reading the instructions you did a great job explaining everything. Please don't ever take this video down lol.
I just bought the upgraded version of this watch, and it's really nice! Thanks as always for the great tutorial!
Ok bought the gw6900 for $65 shipped! Just watched your video tutorial again on this model, thanx again!
+Robert Sanchez that is one of the BEST bang for buck watches put there, I am wearing mine as I type 😄
It has one of the best modules Casio made in one of the most iconic cases Casio made and all that for $65!!
Just thanking you again for the effort on this video. It is a virtual manual with I would say, all of the details the owner/wearer needs to know. I checked back coz I forgot to calibrate the hands with the digitals 😅 Again, thank you!
thank you finally someone who puts some effort into their work. great job thanks
Thank you for the kind words

I've got GA-700SKE. I've set it up with ease, because I remembered this video.
Casio 5522 G Shock is an amazing watch. The instructions though were hard to follow! I saw this video and it helped out so much! Thanks to you I was able to work it out. Thumbs up!
Awesome WatchGeek, what’s taking me hours & still lost. It only took me minutes after watching your video fixing the problem- Thanks mate
I'm glad I helped 😁
Thank you so, so much for this video and yes, this is the best simplist step by step tutorial.. I am so grateful because the manual to these watches are ridiculous and instructions don't make sense.. Once again Thank you🤗🤗🙏🤗🤗
Just bought this watch and I was completely lost! Ty for posting this video!
Great to hear I helped
Just bought this watch and I was completely lost! 😂
Thx for posting this video, it helped a ton!!
+Charro Astral I'm glad I helped 👍😊
This is my first G Shock which I bought today. Thank you very much for your tutorial, I don't feel like a total goose now. You explain things very well, you do a top job. Thanks again. I've got a few more Casios lined up to get :-)
What color is yours I got one last year in April and was my first watch. Mine has a black with blue accents.
@@ernestomarquez4972same as well
I travel between cities and the swap has saved so much of my time thanks man
just got this watch yesterday (10/17/230 didn't realize this model was so old. Very affordable and I bought all of the colors. Nevertheless thanks for the video, informative.
Hey man my arms were showing something else so after watching this vedio I learned how to keep both digital and arm time the same!!!!! Thanks for sharing this info !!! You are awesome... keep up the good work 👏
After watching your tutorial many times on the GA 700, GA 800 and GBA 800, I also watched a quick comparison between the GA 700 & GA 800 (gshock highfashion) I decided to order the GA 700, can't wait for it to arrive so I can play with it from what I have been learning from your tutorial video. Thank you very much again. If you have a watch shop and you live in Australia I will go to your shop every time I buy a new watch :).
Just replace the battery you made life easy mate. Thank you so much 🙏
Just got this watch today and I couldn’t figure out how to set the time and you helped me out a lot!!! I wish it had a better light so I can actually see it in the dark
+Tyrone Askew congrats, and yes, if the light was stronger it would be better
I've had my watch for a few days now and I never knew of the time swapping feature, thanks for letting me know.
Great job on this video. Very informative. I have fat fingers and when I bought this I started messing with it and I did something and I got irritated to say the least. You saved the day. Thanks. Maybe you can fix my Omega. 😊
JUST FIXED MY WATCH BECAUSE OF THIS VIDEO! Thank you!!!
I'm glad I helped 😁
Thanks a lot, Didn't have a manual for these watch and I kept adjusting the time but the hands mark a different time then I saw you wonderful video and now the watch is working perfectly.
Thanks again.
Your a Godsend!!! Haven't been able to setup! Yours is the ONLY decent procedure I have found!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!
Wanting to set up my Casio 2255 and this helped alot! I wouldve never been able to do it alone. Thanks so much!
Great review! BTW @6:15 - the only reason they made the buckle plastic, (as it is on the 400) is COST cutting. No other reason.
Thanks,I could not do the tiny booklet with my old eyes your tutorial is very clear and I’m ready to go
What an incredibly good-looking watch for a hundred bucks. It also has some pretty good features to boot
*_Another superb and phenomenal review WG!!! One thing that probably slipped your mind was the ability to exit any mode and return straightway to Home Time Mode. This is accomplished by the depressing of the C button or Mode for about three seconds. "TIME Hold" will begin to flash in the bottom LCD panel. When the C button is depressed long enough, you'll hear two succinct high tone beeps and you're back to HTM. This function is also available in the WVA-M640 Casio Non-G-Shock model. Other than that, you covered everything._*
*_If I can get my hands on the GA-700-1A I'll be a contented camper. I have the red GA-700-4A as pictured in my avatar, the all black with grey accents GA700-1B, and the black and navy GA710-1A2. But man the GA-700-1A with that majestic RED contrast is awe inspiring._*
Thank you for letting me know this about the shortcut. The GA700-1A with the red accents is a very sharp looking watch. I like all the features that it has. Especially the one button push stopwatch. The one button push stopwatch reminds me of same feature that all automatic and manual wind chronographs had in them back in the 1960's and 1970's. I've had my GA700-1A for around 3 years. I purchased mine brand new and never wore it. Instead, I put it in storage when I got it. Well, I just took it out of storage a few days ago to start wearing it. This watch has grown on me so much that I ordered 2 more GA700's. The all black with grey accents GA700-1B and the GA700BMC-1A Neo Tokyo with the red and yellow painted hour and minute hands. I'm also thinking of getting another extra GA700-1A with the red accents and positive LCD display to have as a back up to the one that I already own. The three GA700 models that I mention here are my 3 favorite out of the entire GA700 line up. The GA700 looks very tough and heavy duty. The GA700's design is very tactical looking and it has a masculine look to it. It has presence on the wrist and is very light and comfortable to wear. I will rotate wearing all 3 of my GA700's with my three GWG1000 Mudmasters and my collection of Citizen Eco-Drive Skyhawks.
@@georgeg1947 *_I hear you man! If you're enamored with the GA700, I dare you to give the GA-800 a try. The only difference between the GA700 & the GA800, is the 800 has Dual Time Mode w/ Time Swap - rather than World Time Mode -, Recall Mode from past and current SWM times, and no Target Time in SWM. Other than that, the features are akin, especially the shortcut to HTM. The profile of the 800 isn't as bulky and big as the 700 but it's still just as nice as the 700. The bonus with the GA700 is the second hand ticker. With that bonus you get the Alarm Mode off/on indicator & a Time Recall Mode counter indicator. I honestly don't know which model I like the best. I have two red 700s (GA-700-4A), one to work in and one as a back up. I've yet to acquire the GA700-1A with those red accents that you mentioned. In fact, I don't have one positive LCD screen 700. My other two 700s are the black and grey 700-1B that you mentioned and the black one with the navy accents. I thought I was buying the black and blue 700 with the positive screen but because of a delay in shipping, the seller also bestowed upon me a GA110RG-1A for my patience in waiting for the package to arrive._*
@Eudtg Laery,
I already have two GA-800 G-Shocks with the positive lcd display. I like GA-800 very much. Both the GA-700 and the GA-800 are excellent models to own and wear. I ended up purchasing a total of (12) twelve different GA-700 G-Shocks with different colored dials with both positive and negative lcd displays. Mostly with the negative lcd displays. I’ve been wearing them all in rotation. You can say that I went crazy with this model and that I went on a binge with the GA-700. I love the GA-700 model with the shiny orange dial and black/orange hands. I also like the tan military model as well as the model with the gold hands and markers with the black dial and yellow positive lcd display. I basically went nuts over this model and ended up buying most of the GA-800 models except for the white, blue, red, clear, and shiny black bezel ones.
Meanwhile, I also dug up my 7 year old all black Suunto Core from 2013 that’s been sitting in my sock drawer for the last 6 years and I ordered a new battery and battery hatch gasket for it so I can bring it back to life and start wearing it in rotation together with my collection of GA-800’s and Citizen Skyhawks. I don’t know what it is, but I really miss the all black Suunto Core. I’m getting drawn to this model. I haven’t worn it on my wrist now for at least 6 years. The all black Core was very popular among Special Forces personnel back in the mid 2000’s in Afghanistan and in Iraq. The all black Suunto Core is a very nice looking watch and it’s very noticeable when worn on the wrist. It’s like spotting someone wearing a 1970’s James Bond Rolex Submariner. You just cannot miss it on someone’s wrist. It cannot go unnoticed. You don’t see this particular model being worn on people’s wrists anymore. Maybe that’s why the all black Suunto Core has become such a conversation piece. It’s a very beautiful and sharp looking watch and very noticeable when worn on the wrist.
I recently accidentally found an excellent deal online for the all black Suunto Core for really cheap money for between $100 and $128 each before tax, so I ordered 6 more of them to have in my collection as backups just in case my 7 year old all black Core breaks, gets damaged or gets lost/stolen. Four of them cost $106 each and the other two cost $135 each with the tax included. At this cheap low price, I couldn’t help buying more than one Core watch. Especially when the all black Suunto Core model is listed brand new for between $190 to $200 and more on eBay and REI Sports. Sellers on eBay are asking $85 to $200 for the Core in used condition. So I think that the $106 and $135 that I paid for this particular model brand new is definitely not a bad deal. I saved myself between $510 to $600 combined on all 6 watches. I felt that it was a good idea to have more than one in my collection before this particular model gets discontinued or becomes rare/scarce to find. I will at least have an extra 6 brand new NOS all black Suunto Core watches on hand for future usage if needed. I’m currently also looking to purchase 1 or 2 of the Core models with the positive lcd display to have in conjunction with the all black models. After this purchase, I’m going to refrain from purchasing anymore watches for the remainder of the year or even longer. I have too many watches in my collection and I don’t have anymore room for more. I want to be able to wear and enjoy my GA-800 collection together with all my Suunto Cores, Citizen Skyhawks, Citizen Eco-Drive chronographs and my various divers watch collection. If I do make anymore watch purchases down the road in the long run, it’s got to be for a watch that’s unique which will catch my eye just like the GA-700 and all black Suunto Core did.
George G *_I hear you man!! The Swiss made Suuntos catch my eye too. Never owned one though. I’ve only seen the black negative models in person. I don’t t know if they were the Core models that you asserted or not. The only thing I don’t like about them is the glass/crystal appears to be flush with the bezel. I don’t even like Casios with that profile. I prefer a recessed crystal with the bezel serving as a sentry to the glass so it won’t be readily scratched._*
*_You have a hefty timepiece collection. I find myself having insufficient storage in watch cases too. I don’t reason aright to say “desist buying watches Eudtg”. Rather covetousness overwhelms me & says “you just need more watch cases for more watches, silly”. 🤦🏾♂️_*
@ Eudtg Laery,
All the Suunto watches are made in Finland for the exception of the Core model which is made in China. The Core that I own and the other 6 that I ordered are all with the black negative display. They all retain the original 2007 design. They all have a recessed mineral crystal that’s embedded below the black aluminum rotating bezel. The crystal is not flush with the black resin watch case or with the rotating bezel. It’s recessed deep below the aluminum rotating bezel making it hard to scratch the crystal. I don’t like flush crystals that are exposed either. The Suunto model that you are thinking of that has a flush crystal is probably one of the much newer sport models that have gps in them or their computer dive watches. All of the current Suunto sport and dive models all have flush mineral crystals on them just like the Casio watches that you mentioned. The Core is the only model that has a recessed crystal. If you do a search on RUclips or eBay, you will find the model that I own. The black rotating bezel on the Core has silver numbers on it that show the degrees of a complete circle from 0 degrees to 360 degrees. There’s also two oval luminous pips at the 12:00 o’clock position on the aluminum rotating bezel.
As for storage, I have a few watch cases but I don’t have the room for anymore watch cases, so I store my watches in bureau drawers and end table drawers cushioned between socks, undershirts and t-shirts. I try to keep them spaced apart so they don’t rub against each other so they don’t get scratched.
Thank you so much! My hands displayed the wrong time and I was unsure on how to fix it.
I recently just purchased a brand new GA 700. I find your tutorial 1000 times better than the fine manual it comes with, my only problem is I can hardly see the digital display, can this be adjusted or do I have a faulty G stock? Awaiting your humble reply.
The best tutorial on YOU TUBE hands down! Thanks from America!
Just bought the navy camouflage version on this watch! Can’t wait when it gets here (England Manchester) all the way from Tokyo Japan.
Congrats
80$ watches aren't made in Japan, lol
Thank you, you're a legend. Had this watch today and I was baffled as to how to set it and the included instruction manual needs a microscope to read. Found your video and now it's all set up 👍
this was an amazing and straight forward tutorial with a great explanation of each of the functions and uses! Thank you for this, it made understanding my new watch beyond easier than the actual manual it came with!
Thanks! I had this watch for about an year. I could not figure how to set it. I came across your video and hey,presto,it worked.
Thanks
I'm glad I helped
My GBA400 also has a plastic buckle, I believe it was released before that
I just watched your video with my GA-700 in my hand, and just realized it has really lots of feature. I'm not a Gshock fan, but this watch really got me! Gonna collect another color series of this GA! Thanks for making a great review and tutorial video!
+Denny DSU congrats on the watch and thanks 😊
Gave up on the manual after three words. Thanks for this video!
I needed to know what the TGT meant. And boom after a quick search I found the answer I needed. Thank you, sir. Happy Sunday!
I decided go for this GA 700 1ADR bcs of this details video ... lol.. it was sooo hard to choose gshock color since tht all color are looks nice! But then agn, after wearing it for some time its kinda acceptable due to its bigger design large and tick, and bcs of this model is black its really not tht bad in my wrist after all.
Kent Mctavish I ended up getting the adrenaline red color but the blue looked awsome too! Just got mine today!
Thank you finally got my arms aligned correctly. Only video that work
You are a poet mate! Truly! Greetings from Poland!!! Thank You.
Thanks for the video this watch was making me mental trying to get the hands to match the digital display
Just brought this watch in green. Your video helped alot.
One of the best Tutorials I've seen in anything. Explained in detail clearly. Thanks a lot!!! Merci. From Brooklyn NYC.
Hey can u tell me whether this model has auto light feature or not?
I wish there was a way to brighten the background of the digital screen of my watch. It's very dark, and the light is so small, it barely illuminates the analog dial.
Thks for your A to Z explanation on all the functions of the G-Shock GA-700 watch...it was more than enough especially with your detailed & careful explanations.
Unfortunately, there's 1 important feature you left out that many people buy this G-Shock for in the 1st place...the water resistance to 20 bars! I was hoping that some part of your 25 min vlog had some part of that vitally important feature, but it didn't. Both thumbs up for you but only 3 out of 5 stars for the rating...1 star taken bc it was an easy mistake & the other star bc of the importance of this watch being resistant to H²O at 20 bar & the meaning behind it all.
Yes this is the best video to help you set your G Shock GA-700.
My watch arms wasnt show the right time after i watched your video i fixed it thank you so much also you teach me lots of thing my 2 year old watch has allready have but i dont use it at all so thank you
No need to refer manual anymore...nice and clean detailed demonstration...good job man...btw today I ordered this beast online...going to have my 4th G-Shock 🤗
*GLS-8900, GD-120, G-9000 and GA-700 yet te receive ...super exited 🤪wish me luck man 🤩😇
Congrats, I was very close to getting the G9000 about 10 times but would always back out, although I think it's one of the best looking gshocks
Go for GG-1000 than the MUDMASTER actually G-9000 is for those who cant' afford GG-1000 or its a cutt off version of the MUD RESISTANT SERIES what I think ....and yes GA-700 is indeed a nice looking one and yes this the first G-shock ever of my collection which has hands in it rest are all digital...but one thing I do agree with you about the plastic BUCKLE I hav't seen any G-shoch with plastic buckle and another thing I dnt understand that why CASIO skimp the AUTO LIGHT feature in this model...though its not a big deal but still I dnt understand the reason behind it...nyz thanks man :-)
I am so happy that I found your video so I can fix my watch! Thank you !
Thank you very much for this video !!! Was finally able to setup up my dads new watch I got him for fathers day!
Great video and extremely helpful. Thank you
This Watch is totally amazing!!
Bought it last month, this is really nice model of Gshock so nice!
I can't seem to set mine for Ohio's EST...there isn't a digital EST setting, it goes NY then..so I am having trouble getting it set up. I do know once it is set up the watch is going to perform flawlessly. This was a great explanation and review of the watch. Chicago..
Absolutely loved it now I know how to fully customizer my watch❤❤
Thank you, Sad but I have to watch this every year.
So much easier than trying to read that tiny little book. Thanks man!
Thanks for the education on this watch. Very helpful and informative. You’re the man. 😊
Great job with this video. As a g shock collector I appreciate the content
A big respect to your reviews on every video and every watch that you have made. Thank you, it means a lot to me!
I'm glad you like it
Thank you Watch Geek for making this video. Words can't express how much you helped me just now
I'm glad I was of assistance 😊👍
I just bought the red and black SE, it has a metal buckle. This watch is too intelligent. Thanks for the vid. TGT is very interestng 😂

Nice.. Just got this watch today but wasn't expecting the auto lighting ain't available on this model. Nevertheless, I'm still satisfied with the quality, design, feels and didn't remember when was the last time I bought a new watch 😂
Just watched (excuse the pun lol),and I was the very person who you was talking about in your video, but you just really educated me with this watch,as my step son gave me this watch as a present, but I didn't know anything about it until I watched your video,so thank you for your help, stay safe and kind regards Andy 👍💯, YNWA
I'm glad I helped and enjoy your watch 😁👍
Thank you so much sir for this tutorial.
Mark here of philippines.😊
One of the most useful and easy to follow tutorials I've ever seen. Thank you for sharing.
Life saver
Thanks for sharing
Good job , you explain everything very well and should be in charge of writing the paper manual for the watch manufacturer .
Haha thanks 😊
This was such an informative and complete video. I have the 710GB and didn't even know about some of the functions which you showed. Thanks man!
