Casio G-Shock Owner Review : Connected, robust and modern

I just bought it in January 2025 so it's going to be complicated to give you a concrete opinion. I had never had a G-Shock before and thinking about it I found it surprising and a shame especially when you've been collecting watches for 25 years now. So it was time to get the famous CasiOak for my part the bluetooth and solar version model GA-B2100-1AER. Having been used to wearing GARMIN SmartWatches since 2015, the all-plastic and connected type didn't surprise me but where G-shock makes the difference is to think that for relatively low prices you can have a watch with such impressive specifications and a robustness to all tests. This GA-B2100-1AER is really cool and comfortable to wear because it is very light, the octagonal shape gives it a slightly seventies look that I like, the sunray dial is very effective and the layout of the opening on the digital screen is harmonious. Apart from the push buttons that I find much too short for proper use, otherwise it is flawless. Now that I have fallen into it, I have made a small list of the next G-SHOCK acquisitions, I was weak and quickly fell for the DW5900-1 which appeared in 1998 in the cult film The Big Lebowski (my favorite), and on Walter's wrist who wears the famous DW-5900C-1 that I will receive soon, opinion to follow...
