Casio Gents 50.00mm Quartz Watch with LCD Digital dial and Black Plastic/Resin Strap Strap GD-350-1BER

I am so impressed by my new watch. I was previously wearing a fitness tracker / smart watch by the one of the most popular brands. I felt constantly checking sleep and health stats were actually having a detrimental effect on my wellbeing and mental health at the moment. But I relied on it as it had a vibration alarm, I work shifts as a Train Driver and have to wake up hours before the Mrs. I found this one which had a vibration alarm and compared it to a few others. I chose this one mainly because it had the cool factor. I really like the watch. It certainly looks the bees knees. Rugged and tactical in its appearance. A bit like me 😆 The vibration alarm works really well. It is plenty powerful enough to wake me from my sleep. The light is a bright white LED to illuminate the watch face. It looks modern and does a great job of increasing the visibility in darkness. It has the option to illuminate through gestures, ie a flick of the wrist to check the time it should illuminate. I found this feature to be a bit temperamental. Only about half the time it worked and I found it to be a massive annoyance at night when it would turn the light on according to my movements whilst asleep. Thus waking me up. I turned this feature off the next morning. The actual display is very simple to read. Even at a glance. The background is black and the numbers are clear. In terms of navigation, with the aid of the instructions I managed the user interface with ease. It is really simple to operate and set alarms. I like when you get back to the start clock face screen after scrolling through the menu, the watch gives a little vibration buzz to signal this. This watch looks rugged and I reckon it is indeed up to an adventurous lifestyle. I've only worn it in the shower, no swimming yet, but I will update in the future. The strap seems durable with its double buckle. I like how you can unscrew the watch strap, inevitably it will snap at one point in the future. And it is good to know another watch strap could be screw to it. I may purchase one now to keep for the future. The watch sits comfortably. It is large but not oversized and the buttons work well. The only negative point about this watch is that there are only two options of alarm alert. I use the vibrate to wake me up and not wake the wife up. But for those times when it is imperative to definitely wake up I would have appreciate the option to have both the audible alarm and vibration alarm to operate in unison. Note that this watch came delivered to me in a metal presentation tin that looked great. Also included was the warranty and genuine certification documents.

Had many bud get Casio watches since the 80's that served me well for years, replacing each, after the battery or strap went. They all had fairly loud alarm sounds to wake me up for work, except the alarm loudness decreased from watch to watch as the years progressed, but all kept good time accuracy and water resistance. I decided to buy a Timex Vibration Expedition Grid Shock in 2019, was very happy with it, until all the functions failed after 3 years of use, leaving just a time function and nothing else. So decided to buy the GD 350 and pleased so far, especially the vibration alarm , vibe time signal and the negative display, which can be easily viewed in most light and boosted by the powerful backlight, if needed. This watch like all my other Casio's is more a digital companion, than just a time piece, a well made and accurate watch, the G-Shock has a sturdy quality build, with a superior look. I select and set a normal daily alarm, out of the other 5 alarms, followed by the snooze alarm, which gently goes off at 5 minute intervals. The vibe feature is not like a taser on the cheaper Casio vibration alarm version, but more a subtle and effective statement, which does wake me up, as a moderate sleeper. In all , I find this watch comfortable, with useful functions and interesting features, such as world times, flash and beep, and timer etc, that are well detailed by the other buyer comments.

Great watch, one of the best or not the best negative in g-shock family. Black/gold style is perfect, almost like tactical style, and with vibrant it’s like that.

I'm a G-shock owner for 20-odd years and I've been happy with all of them. They're excellent value for money if all you want is a cheap "everyday beater" watch, and so long as you don't use the backlight or alarm much, they're good for around 7-10 years before needing a battery change. I purchased a Luminox Scott Cassell from Amazon during the same week, and whilst it's clearly a much more premium feeling watch that is thinner and smarter in appearance, it cost over £200 and yet I'm not expecting it to last as long as the G-Shock. Not saying that Luminox are bad, it's just testament to how durable G-Shocks are. There are no real bad points, but slight negatives for me would be: a) The watch does feel a bit cheap - especially the strap, but then they are pretty inexpensive. I'd actually rather pay a bit more for a nicer strap material. b) It's very good for a negative display, but it's not very clear in low indoor lighting so you'll need to jiggle the watch around a bit to catch a viewable angle. You could hit the backlight button, but it will kill your battery life. c) The best feature of this watch for me is the vibration function. It's really handy having non-audible alerts, but they're a bit on the weak side. I'd say about half the feel of my fitbit charge-HR as a point of reference. Other than those slight gripes (and I'm really not complaining at this price) it's the perfect everyday watch for me!

Lo mejor, que es el módulo más completo y de los mejor diseñados que he visto en Casio digitales, y además que debe ser el pantalla negativa que mejor se lee del Mundo, porque se lee perfectamente, incluso con poca luz. Además, es muy bonito. Un relojazo, que con la política de subir y bajar los precios de Amazon, lo puedes pillar por precios a la mitad de lo que realmente vale. Lo he visto por más de 100 euros pero también por menos de 50... El módulo es impresionante: enseña la hora en todos los modos, alarmas, cuenta atrás y crono, cosa que muchos no hacen. Además, la cuenta atrás se configura desde 1 segundo, muy bien, porque en otros se configura solo desde 1 minuto. La iluminación es impresionante, como una linterna, y se puede configurar para 1 segundo, 3 segundos o 5 segundos, ahí es nada. Modo Mute para que no suenen los botones, como otros, pero en esta máquina casi perfecta, en este modo el retorno a la pantalla de inicio te lo va a indicar con una vibración, detallazo. Sientes que estás usando un G-SHOCK diferente, con "algo más", con detalles así. Tienes la opción de ponerlo en modo Vibración o Flash. En el primero, las alarmas, cuenta atrás y avisos horarios son solo por vibraciones, que se perciben perfectamente sin molestar. En modo Flash te va a avisar con los pitidos típicos y además con golpes de luz; preferiría que se pudiesen desvincular ambos, para ahorrar pilas. Esto, y carecer de cuenta atrás automática son las dos cosas por las que este módulo no es perfecto. Hay quien también se queja de que no sea solar, deberían quizá haber sacado este relojazo en versión solar también, pero con la pila para 5 años, si no se abusa de las alarmas, puede durar al menos 7 u 8 años la pila, incluso más, que no está mal. Tiene el mejor horario mundial que conozco, indicando los nombres de las ciudades enteros (van pasando como en un anuncio luminoso, precioso). El acceso directo a la cuenta atrás desde la pantalla de inicio, con el botón de acero de abajo a la derecha, es una pasada; porque además, en esta súper pantalla gigante, todo se ve indicado a la perfección, y de una manera tan cómoda y atractiva, que hay que probarlo para comprender lo que digo. Los botones son muy cómodos, infinitamente más que los de un G-Shock 5600 y otros, pero no se pulsan por error nunca. El reloj entero es muy cómodo, a pesar de su tamaño grande. No son solo sus funciones estrella de vibración y acceso directo a la cuenta atrás, es que este reloj está muy bien hecho. La comodidad de lectura es enorme, la pantalla negativa es muy legible además de bonita, el aspecto táctico es total, es cómodo y su módulo es ordenado, atractivo de ver y usar y completísimo... No comprendo por qué Casio fue dejando de fabricar tan pronto este relojazo...¿quizá ofracía demasiado para su precio? Una pena, debería fabricarse en versiones negativas, positivas y alguna solar, y sería un Casio G-Shock muy vendiddo y un clásico de la marca el día de mañana. Una enorme suerte haber podido comprar este, y a un precio buenísimo, gracias a AMAZON. El envío como siempre perfecto.

Ho comprato questo orologio perché oltre a piacermi molto esteticamente, mi serviva un orologio resistente e con LA SVEGLIA A VIBRAZIONE. Nella confezione di cartone è contenuto l'orologio dentro un case di latta molto carino e riutilizzabile (vedi foto, stand non incluso). L'orologio si presenta in una colorazione grigio scuro molto simile al nero, lo sfondo è a tinta con i numeri in "bianco" quindi al contrario di molti schermi classici G-shock. Nonostante sia un orologio "grande" è molto leggero e "veste" bene anche se non si ha un polso grande (vedi foto mano). Ha una retroilluminazione con 2 led chiari (vedi foto orologio illuminato). L'orologio è concepito per un uso "militare" tattico, per questo ha gli allarmi silenziati con avviso o tramite vibrazione o tramite illuminazione dello schermo. La prima schermata segnala l'orario con i secondi, data e illustrazione grafica (secondi, e minuti) ed un settore "a torta" in alto a destra nel quale ricorda le funzioni attive (LT illuminazione automatica, VIB vibrazione, TMR Timer o conto alla rovescia, MUTE nessuna notifica ne bip). Nella seconda modalità vi è il fuso orario selezionabile per aver un secondo orario sempre a disposizione (a mio parere la funzione meno utile ed utilizzabile a meno che non siate una rock star che gira per il mondo ogni settimana)... Terza funzione gli ALLARMI (5 selezionabili) ovvero 5 tipi di sveglie o avvisi modificabili a piacere di cui il primo per impostare ad esempio l'avviso (con illuminazione dello schermo o con vibrazione), uno con funzione snooze quindi a ripetizione (fino a 5 volte) ed altri con funzione DAILY che si ripeteranno ogni giorno. Poi schermata CRONOMETRO e l'ultima TIMER (quest'ultima accessibile con una scorciatoia anche da schermata iniziale orologio). L'orologio così come hanno detto anche altri recensori è chiaramente visibile al sole anche con lenti polarizzate. Ha una colorazione cangiante tra il giallo ed il verde (bellissimo). Se al posto del fuso orario avessero messo un altra funzione (es il barometro, o notifiche Bluetooth, o calcolo delle calorie) sarebbe stato perfetto, ma probabilmente avrebbe avuto anche un altro costo...quindi va bene così. UN PICCOLO "SEGRETO": Se lo comprate ( e ve lo consiglio) tra le istruzioni troverete un fogliettino con le indicazioni per partecipare ad un concorso a premi CASIO, non si sa mai... ;P Se vi è piaciuta la recensione, please LIKE IT grazie :*

Tout à déjà été largement dit...une montre au top éclairage négatif, bon éclairage nocturne même pour les binoclard et possibilité du réveil en mode vibreur. J’avais avant acheté le modèle Timex expedition qui est repartie pas assez solide au quotidien alors que cette casio semble de bien meilleure fabrication, à voir dans le temps....

Neben einer GA-110-1BER ist dies nun meine zweite G-Shock. Einerseits gefällt mir persönlich die Optik der G-Shock-Uhren, andererseits war ich auf der Suche nach einer Armbanduhr mit einer einfach ablesbaren Anzeige. Die GD-350-1BER erfüllt diese Anforderung in hohem Maße, wie ich finde. Die Uhr bietet mit unterschiedlichen Zeitzonen, Stoppuhr, Timer und Alarmfunktion ein grundsolides Funktionsspektrum. Die Bedienung ist denkbar einfach und funktioniert genau so, wie man es erwartet. Der Vibrationsalarm als besonderes Goodie gefällt mir ebenfalls sehr gut und hat sich in der Praxis bereits bewährt. Es gibt eben tatsächlich Situationen, in denen ein aufdringlich piepsender Wecker arg peinlich sein kann. In solchen Fällen ist man mit dieser Uhr sehr gut bedient. Schwierigkeiten hinsichtlich der Tastenbedienung, wie es in einer Rezension genannt wurde, gibt es bei meiner Uhr glücklicherweise nicht. Die Tasten reagieren einwandfrei auf leichten Druck. Die Beleuchtung reicht aus, um die gesamte Anzeige zu illuminieren und komplett sichtbar/ablesbar zu machen, was beispielsweise bei der GA-110-1BER nicht der Fall ist. Nicht uninteressant (aber auch nicht zwingend notwendig) ist sicherlich auch das Feature der automatischen Beleuchtung, die bei Drehung des Handgelenks aktiviert wird (was auch bei anderen G-Shock-Modellen vorhanden ist). Alles in allem eine solide verarbeitete, hübsch wuchtige Digitaluhr für alle, die eine Schwäche für "Stealth"- oder "Tactical"-Design haben (wie immer man es auch nennen mag). Von meiner Seite eine klare Kaufemfpehlung.
