G Shock Mudman Review,
March 14, 2009 Middleman (Fort Worth, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Casio Men's GW9010-1 G-Shock Mudman Solar Atomic Rally Watch (Watch)
I've only had this watch for a few days, but I have to say that I love it so far. I'm a watch guy, and I've never really bought a watch of this type before. I've always bought more dressy or sport watches. Most of the reviews on here are right on the money. The watch is light on the wrist, and comfortable. The buttons are a tiny bit tough to push, but nothing of any concern whatsoever in my opinion. The atomic sync is awesome... totally awesome. Mine syncs up on the nightstand (every day at midnight) & no where near a window. I find this model to be very attractive looking for what it is, yet still tough/rugged. I don't think I'll be the guy who's overly rough with it, but I did buy it for every day wear and tear around the house, at the gym, and outdoor activities... It seems to be the perfect fit. It's not over-sized at all in my opinion. Highly recommended so far. I'll make an attempt to report back in after a couple of months.

This review is from: Casio Men's GW9010-1 G-Shock Mudman Solar Atomic Rally Watch (Watch)
So far I really like this watch. I was a little afraid that it would be too bulky, but that has not been and issue at all. It is on the large side compared to the timex ironman watches I have had in the past, but not so large as to look funny or feel strange.
I chose this one over the Mudman g9000 because of the solar power and atomic clock features. If you don't care about either of these, I would go with the 9000 because it has a slightly better interface and is cheaper.
I am the kind of nerd that loves the idea that my watch is within a fraction of a second of the offical atomic clock time. For me that makes this watch worth the extra $40.

Very hard to fault!,

This review is from: Casio Men's GW9010-1 G-Shock Mudman Solar Atomic Rally Watch (Watch)
I have quite a few G-Shocks, and this Mudman is spending a lot of time on my wrist (along with my perennial favourite, the Casio Men's G-Shock Classic Digital Watch #DW5600E-1V). Here's why:
Pros:
- Absolutely rock solid. Feels indestructible. You will only know what I mean after you've held one (all of the Mudman range share this same case, and it's a winner!)
- Easy-to-read.
- Solar powered with full auto illumination.
- Ability to show a second time-zone (with label, eg. "NYC") on main screen.
Cons:
- Buttons are hard to press. This isn't really a con; you do get used to it. But some people would find this annoying.
- "Rally Timer" - this will probably be used by 0.1% of people who buy this watch.
I'd like to talk about the display firstly - it's what attracts...Read more
