G-Shock GBD-200 display options
I’ve picked up another G-Shock, this time the GBD-200. I’ve not connected it to my phone and not planning on using the fitness tracking but picked it up for the larger fonts (yes, I’m old). I thought it might be useful to post a few images of what it looks like in case you’re looking…

Create your own custom G-Shock
Casio are one of my favourite watch brands, well actually one of my favourite brands full stop. I’ve recently been wearing a G-Shock most of the time, more specifically the 5600. G-Shock in Japan now offers a MY G-SHOCK option where you can customise your own here. It’s fun just playing around…

Is the Casio G-Shock 5600 worth buying?
As you know if you’ve been reading my site for a while I’m a watch fan and particularly fond of Japanese watches from Casio and Seiko. I previously reviewed the G-Shock 5610 and at the time was heavily wearing an F-91 and found the 5610 to not be as comfortable so returned it and kept…

I’m a big watch fan and am especially fond of Casio, I’ve written about them here before and owned lots of them during my time watch collecting. I’ve just received my G-Shock 5600 Music Night Tokyo edition and wow I love it already. This is a collaboration between G-Shock and Yoshirotten and might be my…

The best minimal digital watch
After returning the series 6 Apple Watch I’ve been looking to simplify things a little and disengage with so much technology. I’m on so many screens between my phone and the day job I wanted to go back to a simpler time and not worry about tracking everything about what I’m doing throughout the day.…

Casio AE1200 – The best digital watch
I’ve been wearing a non Smartwatch for a few months again and I’m slowly finding out some of my favourites. First up for a digital is the Casio AE1200, which you can pick up for less than £30. I love the design, it looks like something from Star Wars or Blade Runner. It’s light, the…

A minimalist watch
I’ve been going through a bit of a resurgence in my love of watches over the last six months or so and starting to think about how I can share one of my other passions on my blog. My first post is around finding that one watch that is both minimal and functional. After looking…

Casio G-Shock GBA-800 review
I’ve been using the Casio G-Shock step tracker for a good few weeks now and feel like I’m now in a position to share some opinions on using it. Design and comfort I feel that with G-Shock you either love or hate them, for me Initkwlly I wasn’t sure. It’s chunky but not uncomfortable when…

Casio F-91w review after 1 year
The Casio F-91w is still my go to no fuss watch, there’s a lot to love and at £20 or less then it’s a watch most people should have in their collection. As I’ve said before I’ve worn some form of this watch since the 80’s and it continues to be one of the lightest…

The simplicity of the Casio F-91W
I’ve been wearing Casio’s since the 80’s and after testing out the really great G-SHOCK 800 with it’s Bluetooth and step tracking I’m going back to the F91. It’s light, has a stop watch, backlight and most importantly it’s simple. I got a bit frustrated syncing step data to the Casio app and in my…

A G-SHOCK with heart rate monitoring and GPS
This announcement looks pretty interesting from Casio. I’m enjoying my step tracker G-SHOCK but it seems Casio are joining the smart watch crowd. Not for me I don’t think as I’m keeping it simple but I’d be tempted to give it a test. 12 month battery for step tracking, 14 hours for heart rate and…

Casio G-Shock GBA 800 first impressions
I’m a couple of days in with the G-SHOCK 800 and it’s been a nice step back from something too smart. I’m taking stock of the tech around me and taking a break from Apple Watch was top of my list. I’ve been struggling with a few issues lately and the Apple Watch has made…

Casio AE1200, the only digital watch you’ll need
If you’ve been following along I’m taking a step back from the Apple Watch, something I’m not ready to go into just yet but it’s let me get back into watches. I’ve always been fascinated by watches and have a nostalgic love for Casio so I picked up the AE1200 for £24. It’s retro look…

Casio G-Shock 5610, a week on the wrist
I’ve been wearing my trust Casio F-91w on and off for a few weeks now but been looking over at the G-Shock wondering what I’m missing. I don’t need to go into the background of these tough watches but as a fan of space travel it’s the only “space watch” I can afford, yes it’s…
