One of the finest G-Shocks out there I think.
Never seen this before! Is it a Mudmaster? What is the model number please?
Yes that's the Mudmaster GWG-1000-1A9 :-)
Thanks for that.
Good to see you colour coordinate your watch with your shades
Looks awesome!!
It is rather an incredible bit of kit. Like being a kid again reading the instructions and trying everything out!!
I do rather like the look of the mudman too - very nice. I can sense a yellow strap arriving soon!!
Now that is one superb G-Shock love the colour as well.
My first G shock, never even looked at one before so thought id see what i was missing
Incredibly light and surprisingly comfortable too, my head is fizzing with the features but enjoying playing with it
Dark day so best i can do
Latest arrival off SC
For those with a solar powered version, if I gave it a full charge then left it in a drawer, how long would the charge last?
I thought that was going to be a Schrödinger's cat question :)
I think certain models go into 'sleep mode' so quite a while id have thought
Months. Some of mine have been in darkness for months and only drop to medium charge. All I do then is pop it next to the window for the day.
I think the charge will last 6 months in total darkness.
My Frogman is 10 months I think, in power save mode its approx 27 on a full charge according to specs.
Oh that's good, longer than I thought.
The only constant in my collection over the last 5 years :)

I went for a G-7900. It wears really nice, I'm thinking about getting the solar atomic version.
In the fish tank
Managed to get a replacement strap screw for the one that I lost on dartmoor, so Frogman is back in action.

I have just trimmed my G-Shock collection down to two, but this is the watch that I would love to get my hands on........
However, until that time, I am happy with this less vibrant version!
I really like the look of the Mudmaster, really nice full featured G-Shock.
Very tempted to get one.
Out and about with this today.
Here,

Thought this looked so cool that I have ordered a different model, but with the black bezel (with yellow) and yellow band. My small G-Shock collection needed brightening up!

That's great news :-) and thanks for the support. Glad you like them. Looking forward to your new arrival :-)
Thank you very much. Looking forward to it :-) You gonna love this beast.
Hmm, is the mudmaster a new range? Never heard of it before! Anyway the minimalist Ana-digi looks pretty good!
Yes new range

Never really been a big lover of G-shocks but this thread is changing my opinion on them.. some lovely examples here
Many thanks. Aesthetically this looks way nicer than the gulfmaster for pretty much identical function set. What's the retail on them - couldn't find it...
If you scroll down the page ¥ 80,000 or about £ 438 looks nice I must say.
Thanks, I was hoping if an international price was known, g shock pricing can be a bit odd at times...
I got it for around 470 USD here in HK. But I wanted it quick and early - so I paid a premium. I guess after awhile, if you can wait, it should be around 420 USD or perhaps even lower. But I don't know the UK/ European market.

Camo Ranger
4 show :-) Hong Kong urban nature shot :-)
My only G-shock
GW-M5610BA-1JF
Been looking into getting one, from seiya in Japan it is 566 USD but with import charges ( 20 % vat and whatever parcel force charge for handling ) just under £500 and watch shop in the UK are doing them for 565 GBP with a RRP of 650GBP.
470 USD in HK, is a great price.
Might hang on for a while, as have a few other G shocks to wear. Great watch though.
