This is my first G-Shock and I'm very impressed with it. I have traditionally like dive type watches and I've been wearing a Momentum Deep 6 for the last couple years. The Deep 6 is a great watch but because of it's large size it does weigh a bit.
I'd been looking at G-Schocks for a long time deciding which model I wanted for my first. I ended up deciding on this one, the GD100MS-1. I really like the size and weight of this watch. I have large wrists and this watch looks substantial on it. But the great thing is the weight and feel. It wears very comfortably, and I tend to forget it's there it's so light.

I am particularly fond of military style watches, and have had the fortune of owning a few military-issued models. With that being said, I am really pleased with this watch. The matte resin is really nice, very comfortable and really soaks up the light. This watch has a very aggressive and powerful look about it. I was a little concerned about its size: 48mm around is no joke. But in spite of that, it looks right at home on my medium sized wrists. I am 6' and about 210 lbs - not as scrawny as I used to be, but not NFL sized by any means. The watch looks big, commanding, but not rediculous. The display is beautiful and the auto light is an essential feature. This one lights up with a red light that looks distinctive. The numbers are nice and sharp and remind me of the readouts on my truck. Yet, this watch is surprisingly light and...Read more
