It's all I wore before I finally got an Apple watch. I've had several models. I'm a utility/function over form type, so I always got the solar, atomic function. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

I have owner 4. 1 - The band broke and face is laying somewhere on a football field in Mineral Wells, WV 2 - Don't recall the model, but my son wanted it and I gave it to him. It's still running 3 and 4 - Model 5081 FDE and camo. Both are still running. Great watches, rugged, stylish, and great value!!!! ...You, higher mammal.

Wait, what? |
I have been wearing G-Shocks for about 26 years; the only one I ever had an issue with was a Tough Solar. The rechargeable battery went south and I went back to my tried and true 5600e. I now wear an G8000-1v reverse face a lot and my trusty 5600e back and forth. “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

Not really from Vienna |
Not a G-Shock, but my beater watch is a Casio MDV-106 diver. It's been a good durable watch for $50. If the lume was better it would be everything I could ask of a watch. | |||

I have a cheap one as an everyday watch for a few years now. I'm pretty rough on watches but this one seems indestructable. Very happy with it, will buy another if I outlive this one. | |||

Dave, Do you have a timeline of when you would start carrying them? _____________ | |||

I would probably be interested in a Master of G or a ProTrek. "I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . .

For me, I would generally buy a G-shock over a Luminox. But that's about it. Would be awesome if you could carry the Casio Oceanus line, those are incredible, but I think they may be restricted to JDM. I've only ever found them on import websites. | |||

You would have my attention, should you start carrying the G-Shock line. I only have one, but it is a lot like guns; you start wanting to explore other models. I want to move up from the $100 models to the $2-400 models. Hopefully, you will add the line and make it so much easier to take my money. | |||

That rug really tied the room together. |
The atomic g shock is amazing for corrections, law enforcement, nurses, and EMT's. I wore one every day of my career and wouldn't wear anything else. Bulletproof, and 100% accurate all day every day, down to the second. Amazing. ______________________________________________________ Often times a very small man can cast a very large shadow | |||

If you could convince Apple and Casio to make a G-Shock Apple Watch you wouldnt be able to make enough to keep up with demand. I truly believe that it would be the do all, do everything, never worry about it watch. I have a solar battery Casio G-Shock that is 15yrs old and is still rocking. Love G-Shocks. Have had a few. This one I actually didn’t wear for a couple of years and recently, couple of months ago, went back to it. Battery was dead. So I sat it in window at house for a couple of days and it took a full charge. Haven’t had any issues with it. I had looked up a battery kit for it but looks like I won’t need it. Sell them. They will sell. " like i said,....i didn't build it, i didn't buy it, and i didn't break it." | |||

In my experience - Casio = rugged, dependable, value. | |||

My son is getting a G shock for his birthday. I just picked up a casio multi function watch (compass, altimeter, all that jazz). It's similar to the g shocks, but without all the rubber (this is titanium). I had one for several years until it got stolen this spring. The watches do hold up well. | |||

It was not evil that made me dangerous. It was love. |
Best watch ever. I wear a Gw6900 everyday. It’s old and it’s never had an issue. Original battery is still at full charge. For God and Country, Shannon | |||

I've had the basic model for at least a few years now. I really like it. Before that I had a Timex Expedition analog watch with stainless steel body, which is all scratched up now. My G-Shock looks nearly new. The only change I made was getting the adapters so I could use a nylon NATO watchband (I really don't like resin bands).

Honestly, I think it's the Ford F-150/250 of watches. They ain't real pretty to some, but they are reliable and durable and get the job done. Not a bad every day watch that you wouldn't think twice if it got beat up. From a business standpoint, they sell. I don't think that it would be a bad move if you stocked them. (BTW, I'll be calling you in a few days. I have a Marathon and a Citizen that need some fixin') ______________________________________________________________________ "When its time to shoot, shoot.

It's a no nonsense everyday knock around. Ugly? Of course that's in the eye of the beholder but I find the sear utility they provide brings an odd sort of attraction. Wore one for a while when I was into outdoor stuff on a regular basis and it served it's purpose. I've moved on to an Apple watch lately as a knock around although it is not nearly as outdoorsy as the G Shock. I don't know how Casio is as far as dealer relationship, but just about everyone knows what a G Shock is and it would seem a good option to provide to your customers that want to go that direction. Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools. And their grandchildren are once more slaves. -D.H. Lawrence | |||

Have a Pro Trek that I wear a lot. I do think they should sell. | |||

With age, I find their watches increasingly busy and with too much gimmickry. I like the solar and atomic capabilities and the durability. I hate that the time telling aspect is difficult to read and is less than acceptable for night. It’s what led me to Citizen. Solar atomic are convenient but I think I’m done with casio. It’s a durable time keeper but not really a good time teller for me. "Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it."
