This is one gorgeous sports watch from the G-Shock collection. The polished steel surfaces contrasts exceptionally well with the case middle crafted from black resin. The G-Shock series is iconic in the world of watchmaking with its triple 10 standard: 10 meters shock resistant, 10 ATM water resistant, and a 10 year battery life. It is these three attributes and the myriad of functions that have made the Casio G-Shock a force to be reckoned in global watchmaking.

The Casio G-Shock GA200BW-1A features an oversized case diameter of 52mm, and a case height of 17mm. This timepiece is equipped with a black resin bracelet, which is secured via a stainless steel pin buckle clasp. Water resistance stands at 200 meters, making this watch perfectly suited for diving. The case features a standard 4 pushers that are used to govern the many functions on this watch.

The dial carries a rhodium toned dial bridge, and two round digital indicators. At the 6 position is a counter in analog format. The hours and minutes hands are made from black steel, and are skeletonized for a sophisticated aesthetic.
This model carries a Japanese made quartz movement. Functions include time zones for 48 cities over 29 time zones with daylight savings on/off. There is also 4 alarms and 1 snooze alarm. Naturally, there is a chronograph, and a countdown timer, and there is also a perpetual calendar pre-programmed to the year 2099. To top this all off, the Casio GA200BW-1A is resistant to magnetic fields.

I think this is a really great watch, not just because of its functionality but also because it is easy to wear and transitions nicely depending on what you are doing. The case size is a bit big for me but it I think that the larger size makes it good for the legibility of the analog and digital subdials. vedere di piu watches replica e Breitling Chronomat Evolution
