- Here is my two week experience with the Casio G Shock G Steel Connected Bluetooth Watch. Its rugged with Shock resistance, 200M water resistance, metal or resin band and bluetooth connection for accurate time, quick world time change and a phone finder feature. Is this the best connected bluetooth watch thats not a smart watch?

Gorgeous watch period! It's a masculine watch not a unisex, which I love the design face and it's built like a tank! Reminds me of a Hublot Big Bang without the 20k price tag and with smart features.
Based on looks alone I want this watch yesterday!
I bought this watch (stainless steel) after watching the review, thanks bud.
That watch is built solid AF. I would rock it for sure.
Good God that watch is a beauty. I need this in my life
I am still thinking of buying this watch since yesterday and today I saw your video. I think I will grab one 👌
If you grabbed one , please help me
Can this watch be used as a sturdy daily use watch ?
@@saharshyashasvi9169 ofcourse bro its a gshock
simply go for it
I wish future smartwatches recharge their batteries with solar technology (with light sensor)
Light and automatic movement. Spring drive is a quartz automatic hybrid so ik its possible. Now we just need to marry the expensive uber complicated movements to technology nice smart watches
Well its a reality now 😂
Great shots in this Danny! Loved the fountain shot. People should know they are getting a chunky watch with a G-Shock. Wished it did have some fitness tracking though!
Yeah seriously. That’s where I feel like it’s lacking.
Love this watch,and bought it today as a new year present for myself ))
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
You guys are such copy cats in the comments haha. If he didn’t mention the fitness tracking gripe at the end I wonder what all the comments would’ve been about haha.
It’s a BLUETOOTH watch not a smart watch. Which means it has a few more features than a normal old school watch, which is cool in my opinion. The smart tech (notifications, fitness tracking) will be outdated in 1-2 years but this watch won’t! This is a great long term investment in my eyes.
I just bought it on amazon and I am honestly in love with the watch. Looks even better in real life than online. It is built like a tank, but just the right size- not overly big. Bluetooth functions work seamlessly through the app and I have no complaints. Perfect mixture of style and function / sporty and classy. This will be my new everyday work watch.
it is built to last ,I too was fascinated for smartwatches but it is a junk after 2 years it will lags ,and the software will be outdated ,that's why I bought this one
Great Review Danny! I haven't had a chance to review a G-Shock yet for my collection however am looking forward to one in the coming months. Thanks for what you do and helping us smaller channels learn!
Nice watch; i've got it for my birthday ! Great design
Me to bro!! happy late bday...!
Does this watch constantly try to communicate with your phone forcing you to keep the app open all the time? Does this in turn run down your iPhone battery?
A watch is all about finding a soul that tells time and be with you enhancing external appearance. I think GST b200 d is gonna be my soulmate
mine is GST b100
Wow
nice sharp detail shots and smooth gimbel video
This G-Shock is worth it...thanks Danny for a quick review.
Cool watch. But, you're wearing it too close to your hand. That limits your range of motion.
Great review man. I picked one up today. I much prefer a traditional watch over the smart watches. You can't beat the look in my opinion. Smart watches have their purpose i suppose but they're not for me.
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
I have it on my hand right now. Great watch! Very accurate all the time. The only downside for this watch in my opinion is the band. It seems so cheap for this kind of watch.
Yeah I really wanted the metal one.
@@dannywinget I saw the one with the bracelet in a store. I think the rubber strap will keep the watch on your wrist more firmly. It seems like a nice, soft rubber strap. Great watch, by the way!
Hello
Can you tell, how precisely this model moves, how many seconds is the permissible error for a month or a year?
I've recently brought the black leather strap with orange stitching and the brown leather with white stitching to fit this watch..both look and feel amazing.. 30.00pounds each...realy lift the watch to another level...
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
Got this watch today (steel version) and it's a beauty, I would highly recommend it; my only concern prior to its arrival was that it might look too big but it doesn't at all. Yes, it has 'presence' but is also very stylish and looks perfectly sized on my wrist (I'm 6ft, 95kg with relatively thin wrists for my size)
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
@@gk_knight yeah, it’s functioning perfectly well and still connects with my mobile without any issues 👍🏼
The only thing I would say is that I’ve had to repaint a couple of the letters in the ‘G Shock’ logo on the dial but it’s really easy to do with enamel paints and a cloth to wipe away the excess
@@JesusCommando oh wow. Not sure I’d be any good at doing that! Maybe you could do a RUclips tutorial video for us to see and learn from you ?!
@@gk_knight ha ha, I’m a bit amateurish for that but I learned how to do it from a RUclips tutorial so there’s plenty out there and it’s cheap and easy to do 👍🏼
@@JesusCommando thanks. Mine is brand new so hopefully won’t face that challenge for sometime yet !
Dude. I love this watch. I hate the look of smartwatches. I'm glad this isn't too smart but at the same time not too traditional. Love the look of this watch. Wish you could give it away. 😍
Very good review video. Thank You & stay safe
Just got mine, I agree the black band looks great, but I also ordered the metal bracelet so I can change it up when I want to. :-)
From where did you get the metal bracelet?
@@fiftyhand I contacted Casio and they referred me to an official Casio repair store (in the Netherlands).
Great watch I'll gift it for my brother
Sheila Dey best gift ever
Sheila Dey....you can consider me also as your brother.i prefer swiss / german mechanical watches. ....but I can accept g shock from my loving sister 😜😜😜
Does this watch have mulitple alarm settings, or just one?
Yeah I like this one. My G-Shock is almost ten years old now.
G Shock watches are the shit. They’re the ultimate throw it on and don’t worry about it watch; no matter what you’re doing.
And by the way great review and video! Thanks!
That's gorgeous. I need it soon!
Awesome ⌚ and video
I want it. I have searching for watch a long time. I think this would satisfy my need.
Great review man - nice editing. Is this watch still a good buy? You still wearing it much?
I just brought this watch today thanks to this video. I know I’m late to the party but I got mine for $280 total. This was a great deal in my opinion for such a great looking watch. Love the steel versions of the g shocks.
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
Purchased mine today from H Samuels @ the Bull Ring Shopping Centre. Birmingham England. Stunning is an understatement.
Lovely feel and weight on the wrist. Looks total quality!!! Thanks for the review Danny.
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
@@gk_knight Danny I'm still enjoying the watch, smart and robust. The app works well.🤙
Always liked watches , but being a bit of a clumsy old bugger i have a draw with about 20 broken watches .
the G shock might be the one ! and its nice to see the night light have so much illumination .
Good video Danny .
Great video! Christmas gift for sure!!😃👍🏼
Great video 👍🏾
Danny,
Does the bluetooth find phone work in reverse in other words, if you loose your watch
can you activate your phone to find it. 😃
nope. and this function is very stupid, it works only when watch near phone… and it didnt work if cassio app do not running on the pohone
Don't judge the power of g-shock unless you try it..... I have a casio gshock g9000 mudman..... Truly mud resistance and 200m water resistance and automatic light glows in dark when you see time
It's amazing watch and most beautiful combination for sports watches,steel watch and black bracelet...LOVE IT ! ! !
Danny be getting all the damn coolest stuff for real 😎
Thanks Chuck! It’s awesome.
This watch is awesome! I would love to own it.
There are some cool features embedded but would have loved to see more features like activity track.
Hello
Can you tell, how precisely this model moves, how many seconds is the permissible error for a month or a year?
AWESOME video Dude!!!
Phone finder sounds great. Is it scratch resistant?
Dope video 👌🏿 love the background track from Axel Ljung👊🏿
You helped me make up my mind, thanks you. I'm getting one right now!
love this watch
This looks great, but... what model number is this exactly?
EXCELLENT video! I want this watch. I was looking seriously at the Citizen PCAT (titanium version). But this is a little cheaper and the Bluetooth connection should serve my needs just as well as the Atomic Clock feature on the Citizen. GOOD JOB!
I just picked up the carbon fiber version of this watch... and feel that paying approx 2x more and still getting the same limited Bluetooth functionality is IMO not worth the going price. Not sure why Casio is going this route with Bluetooth. At the least, give me some minimal “smart” features such as vibration notifications!!! I would much rather Casio stick with their tried-and-true Multiband-6 time-syncing technology which ALWAYS gives accurate timekeeping without having to be dependant on a accompanying smartphone.
Did you return it
But the only analog tough solar and multi band 6 watch i am seeing is the Pro trek..
The biggest gripe I have with this watch is it doesn’t connect to my phone without opening the app on this crap iPhone XR. It worked great with SE.
All I want is to set the watch, easily. I don’t want a Fitbit. People need to stop bitching about this not being one,
this is a dope watch.
I think a vibrator for notifications would compromise too much battery space and need a better connection than BT can offer.. (plus, it seems a bit redundant) and the BT syncing, although a little hassle is more versatile for international travel since multi band 6 is only in a few countries. Casio knows wtf
i own that watch and I love it ! The only negative is that it doesn't have atomic reception
Just got one, this things a beast! 🦍
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
The watch looks great and luxurious but the led light bulb makes it look cheap.. Hope they can have their own indiglo like tech to match the design and feel of their gshock watches..
I have one, its just a "normal" watch for that moments when You dont need the thermometer, altimeter, commpas, just an elegant good looking watch, i also have the gravity master and the mud master
i love G-Shock
Finally, G-Shock got me to look and consider one of their watches. Nice design and features, but the sizing is still more for clowns rather than gentlemen. By the way, a Casio G-Shock is not a "timepiece." It's just a wristwatch.
It refuses to connect and this item was a gift and is out of return period.. am I screwed?
Now here is my query. Watches, especially when it is so expensive, you wd typically want to use for a decade or two. Mobile tech and apps however have a very short life time, say 2-3 years. So as the various OS and mobile tech evolve over the next two decade, will the app for the watch too be upgraded or will the mobile tech aspect of the watch become obsolete in 2-3 years?
It might not be the case, since the app is a software property, so unless there's some rare unexpected bug or compatibility issue (which can easily be fixed with a few fix/security patches ), it basically stays the same, as apps for watches don't require many changes and updates imo, for what their purposes are. It depends on the commitment of the devs, though.
Exactly!
just adjust it manually. if batt die, change it.
just adjust it manually. if batt die, change it.
All the BT is for is setting the watch with your phone anywhere in the world. Multiband 6 is only available in Japan, North America, UK, Europe, and China..
I got this because I wanted an accurate watch that needed as little maintenance as possible. No time-day-date-adjusting or changing battery. Plus a little peace-of-mind, to a lot of people that’s worth an extra $200..it’s a pretty simple watch, really.
Bought this watch today i like it
Would I be able to change the bezel to black but keep the stainless steel under so it can be more of a two tone
My question is which is better... quartz or solar powered? My last casio was solar powered and it lasted me 11yrs... I need to buy a new one but can't make up my mind... accurate time is the biggy for me
I love the rugged looks of the watch but may be too big for my wrist. I exercise and am not a skinny guy but my wrist is so small :(
They need to integrate the smart features of the G-Shock Move into the build and look of this device. Most smart functionality can run in the background with only basic exercise time/heart rate/distance that needs to be displayed for running with a step counter meter visible when you aren’t running. This could easily be integrated into this watch. I could care less about reading email/texts on a watch, simply pinging my wrist to alert me is all I need from a smartwatch. If Casio can build THAT device I would buy it immediately.
My problem I have with this watch is that it does not stay connected to my phone. It will pair no problem when I launch the app and press the connect button. But when it connects, the watch hands stop moving, as soon as I press the light button to wake the watch up again, it disconnects from the phone and the app doesn't see it as connected. Which renders the "find my phone" feature non functional.
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
@@gk_knight I enjoy the watch and it keeps time. I just have given up using the app portion of it with my phone.
@@patrickryan1821 thanks for the reply. Just ordered one. There is an updated version (400) but I prefer the look of this model.
What I love about it is that it looks like AP Royal Oak
Great video! ✌
@Danny Winget
I haven't worn a watch in years, but this watch seems awesome! I especially like the things like phone finder, automatic time setter, the bright LED light, glow in the dark hands, solar powering, etc.
Where can I get one?
Links are in the description!
@Danny Winget
Thanks!
nice review but the bezel at the lug isn't rounded making it look chucky, not a fan. Until they get of this sharp edge look i'm not a fan.
i just got it as an impulse buy.... i do not regret it, at all
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
@@gk_knight it still works fine to this day
lovely watch .....If that's the watch which I've seen, its an expensive...around HKD 6000 ...So how much for that watch in ur place
I bought the black gst b200 carbon core
I am new to this watchaholic .. What should i buy the G-shock GST-B200 Carbon Core or the G-shock GST-B100BNR-1A..which is better and what are the difference between the two..
Love to know how long the timer and stopwatch last for? Biggest problem with Casio Waveceptor (also excellent!) is that the stopwatch lasts just one hour, which is useless for most applications. Hoping the GST-B100D-1AER does better?
im thinking of buying one of these, but personally i find the bluetooth connectivity a turn off. Do you need to use the bluetooth? or is it ok without it?
You don’t have to use it
Hi Mate,
The phone finder doesn't work on my watch. When I press the bottom right button, it actually disconnects the Bluetooth connection.
Any tips?
Thanks
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
No notifications, what's the use for connecting with your phone if just for time setting, you can just use radio signal for that.
I got one today great watch
are you still enjoying the watch? is it still functioning okay?
Can you get call notification on this watch
I like the watch and it's features, but it certainly has the price tag to match.
Wondering whats the Bluetooth range
G-Steel is a great line! That turbine is really tacky in my opinion on this one though. I would've been a great all analog G-Steel but the Bluetooth connectivity is meh. The point of having a watch is also not to rely on your phone.
SeniorChaChaCha Right, i jus thought about that. I have the gsteel that looks exactly like this one but without the Bluetooth and im like..why would i pay a lil extra jus to still have to rely on my phone -__-
So we can't submerge the watch?
awesome watch
Just needs a simple text notification and done.
Nah
Ok big question for ya Dan! Once connected...why doesn't the bluetooth stay connected? I'm missing something?
Bruh this watch is dope
HOW YEAR IS BUILT THIS G SHOK STEEL:? THANKS..AND NICE REWIEW!!!
twitter, e-mail and facebook notifications are shown on the watch, but do whatsapp notifications also appear (a dutch communication app)? @Danny Winget
Nice watch
Can you receive calls on it?
The phone finder is dope but can anyone import SONGS to use with it from iPhone? Casio is coming up blank on this..
These watchers are built like tanks. Look up the internal parts compared to other brands.
Hey Danny and what about citizen proximity? I think is better classic Bluetooth watch. I have the BZ1000-54E model. 🤔
I will check some more models out this year for sure!
Can you adjust the time manually to the second without using bluetooth. I mean, if you get an auditory time signal from the radio, can I manually set the time precisely?
Nice watch bro.mine I can't connect to my iPhone se or Huawei mate light.. gshock gst-b100
jo calibus did it Fix?
Hello, I want to know how to prevent the watch dial from scratching. My dial has scratches. I only used it for 6 months.
does this thing have an hourly chime?
Great video
