About this deal

No surprises here – just like its sibling, the GBX 100 is powered by a Japanese quartz movement that runs on a CR2032 battery. The accuracy of this caliber is +/- 15 seconds per month, although again it’s flawless when connected to your phone. Battery

Carrying the watch and no phone, I received no notifications, but as I mentioned above, the simple nature of carrying a stopwatch and no phone, was advantageous to me because I could disconnect. Tide information and sunrise/sunset times for about 3,300 locations around the world can easily be set using the dedicated app. Like its brothers in arms, the GBX-100 has multiple functional displays that take full advantage of the the high-resolution display. Later features such as a tide graph — which shows the times of the high and low tide for a specific beach, as well as a measurement of those tides in feet — were added. These tide indications allow surfers to determine the best conditions for each break based on the height of the waves at any given time of the day. Second Post: The GBX-100 has a stainless steel bezel with a hairline and top honing treatment, and the rest of the case is resin.Revealed at Casio’s Spring & Summer New Product Exhibition, the GBX-100 is a surfing-oriented watch with Bluetooth smartphone connectivity, high/low tide times, tide levels, and sunrise/sunset times, along with the traditional tide graph and moon age display. As mentioned above, this watch does receive notifications but it’s not intended to take the place of a full-fledged smartwatch such as Casio’s new Move watch, or an Apple Watch, for instance. While there’s no solar charging, at least you still get the mobile link timekeeping feature which sets the watch time automatically. Even if the mobile link does not connect for some reason, the watch will maintain an accuracy rate of ±15 seconds per month. Like all Casio models, the watch is powered by a Japanese quartz movement, delivering an accuracy of +/- 15 seconds per month.

Training Function: Display of distance, speed, pace, and other calculated values based on accelerometer, auto/manual lap times, Auto Pause, target alert setting (time, calories burned) on/off, training display customization Also provides comfort with a soft urethane band with slits that help with fit and allow water and sweat to escape. Countdown timer (interval timer with up to five time settings, 1-second units, duration 00’00” to 60’00”, auto-repeat settable from 1 to 20) From what I’ve gathered from watch forum chatter, none of the Casio step-counters are accurate. Word on the street: if you’re serious about using a fitness calculator on your wrist, get a “real” wearable like the models offered by Garmin. So, there you have it – our verdict on the Casio GBD 200 vs GBX 100 comparison. We hope you found this article helpful and that you now know which of these watches is the right choice for you.

Training Data (Up to 100 runs, up to 140 lap times per run) Elapsed time, distance, pace, calories burned. Unlike the round displays of the previous MIP LCD models, the GBX-100 has an octagonal shape that is squarish in appearance. The watch also appears to have a metal bezel and a front button. Ultimately, Casio has delivered a good blend of modern technology without sacrificing the utility of the original G-Lide watches, and with a price that is highly accessible. The instruction manual is now available at support.casio.com. See the full specifications listed below. The simplicity of the physical design makes for a lightweight and comfortable timepiece. Further, the watch sets itself and offers a number of actually useful features that are easy to access. I love the blend of modern tech, and the new steel bezel elevates the watch’s aesthetic and durability — without adding much cost or weight. The G-Lide really makes an argument for resin watches with some steel, at a time when Casio is pushing the much more expensive all-metal variants.

At first glance, the two models look extremely similar but upon further inspection, you start to notice some subtle differences. All of the G-Move data can also be conveniently viewed on your smartphone, using the Mobile link function that connects the watch with your phone via Bluetooth. Being that this is an all-digital watch face what you normally would call a “dial” is actually best referred to as the “display” since it’s a digital screen. This is not a touch screen but all of the functions of the watch are displayed on this screen and controlled by the 5 buttons surrounding the bezel. The battery life is once again outstanding and it can last up to 2 years. Casio GBX 100 vs GBD 200 (Verdict) It’s a smartwatch Jim, but not as we know it. To read a text from my son required six button pushes. No matter how many times I pressed the buttons I couldn’t reply. After half a day of being more connected to my phone than I wanted to be, I turned off the notifications.

Designed for fitness, fishing and surfing, it’s still a worthy timepiece for kooks and Barneys, thanks to the stunningly easy-to-read MIP display In reality, I have as much use for the tide and moon functions as an orthodontist has a need for the helium release valve on a Rolex Sea-Dweller. But it looks cool. The high-definition MIP LCD also improves visibility. Its ability to display tide graphs, moon data, high tide/low tide times and levels, and sunrise/sunset times is useful for surfers as it enables them to understand the tide situation in detail at a glance, which pairs well with the training measurement functions. While not as premium a finish as seen on the higher-end 5000 Series watches, the vertically brushed finish and machine-beveled edges on the steel bezel are a nice touch.
