What Redditors Say

Best praise vs top criticism for Casio G-Shock

Best Praise
+137 pts
“Help a guy out, anyone? I was in service for 12 years. Started as a tank driver, and worked my way up to 1SGT and ran a company of 140 troops. Never in my career have I ever used a mechanical watch out in the field. It’s mostly G-shocks. Crossed paths with Infantry and SF, and they mostly wore Garmin. And still, if there’s going to be a mission that ran several days…G-shock is still the way to go. So……my question is why and what’s the use?”

“I like it a lot, really nice hybrid between design languages. Problem is G-Shock seems to treat their all steel watches as a study as to how expensive they can make a watch and still have people pay.”
