Casio G-Shock GA-100C-8A

The most important thing in the design of these watches is their durability and protection from shocks, water and even magnetic fields. As for the last point, by the way, I can’t even imagine places where there are such magnetic fields that could damage quartz watches. But, perhaps, such situations happen. The water resistance guarantees water tightness even when diving under water, and the shock resistance is such that the watch can be thrown against a concrete wall with a full swing. Of course, I won’t mock the clock like that, but what I saw on YouTube videos is impressive. Despite the rather large size of the case, the watch is not heavy and sits perfectly on the hand. The main material of the case is plastic, the bracelet is also made of plastic (only softer and more flexible). The green arrows and the green tint of the LCD indicator look unusual and stylish. In fact, these are two independent mechanisms with synchronization. There are many different electronic functions from a stopwatch, reminders and a banal calendar, to such advanced things as calculating the speed of movement. But the most important thing is that they have an accurate move. In two months they have gone ahead by less than a third of a minute.
