Bringing this Casio G-Shock GPW-1000RAF as a professional Royal Air Force instrument is absolutely ridiculous. On the pusher at 4 o clock there’s an interesting Z printed in red on it with a line, like a meridian, from top to bottom through it.

An array of sensors operate an on-watch compass, altitude/barometer temperature gauge and accelerometer that keeps track of step count and talk to a G-SHOCK Connected App that keeps a mission log, location indicator, auto altitude calibration and calories burned.G-SHOCK is an unbreakable timepiece built from a ‘Never Give Up’ philosophy that makes it perfectly equipped to support UK Servicemen - both on and off-duty – all over the world. Based on the newer GR-B200 Gravitymaster, the robust aviation-minded timepiece comes almost completely grayed out — save the sleek Carbon Core Guard — to reflect the Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jet that inspires the collaboration. The shock-resistant construction provides a protective cushioning of the watches key mechanical parts. About Us: G-Central is a fan site covering the latest G-Shock watches and news, including worldwide and regional releases, limited editions, collaborations, and events, as well as other Casio watches and related topics. The Royal Air Force x G-SHOCK GR-B200RAF was designed in conjunction with the Royal Air Force, built to accommodate the severe environments faced by pilots and packs flight mission essential functions into an updated Carbon Core Guard Structure.

The base model is the GR-B200, equipped with a Carbon Core Guard structure and Quad Sensor featuring compass, altimeter/barometer, temperature reader and pedometer. The number of the module in this watch is QW-5410 and Google-ing brings me quickly at Casio’s QW-5410 manual.It does NOT have the ‘auto illumination’ feature that appears on some G-Shocks (the twist of the wrist illuminator activation)…. The British Army Mudmaster was designed in conjunction with the British Army and is built to withstand the harshest land environments. Looks like you've changed your theme and now DropInBlog's code needs to be re-added to your theme files. The GRAVITYMASTER GRB200 model also features a Quad Sensor system which makes it possible to pack compass, altitude/barometer and temperature measurement capabilities along with an accelerometer that keeps track of step count, into a compact figuration.

What a big, instrumental, mean but at the same time good-looking, as well extremely readable piece of machinery!It’s important to remember that two stones of equal carat weight can differ in value depending on the other Cs: clarity, colour and most importantly of all, cut. After the mode pusher, starting the stopwatch is done by pressing the top-right pusher; no surprise here. The special edition Gravitymaster boasts design features inspired by aviation, including the three buttons on the right side of the watch arranged to resemble a helicopter control stick while also contributing to ease of operation. Some small remarks from my side: the sub dial on the 11 position isn’t the zulu/ Utc time but the 24hr indicator for the home time. That’s pretty much about the extra functions of this watch, and observant readers might have mentioned that all the extra functions are more or less useless.

Designed in conjunction with the Royal Navy, the watch has been built to accommodate the hostile environments faced by naval personnel - at sea and on land - using a carbon core guard structure. The special limited edition features a camouflage design inspired by the Army’s own Multi Terrain pattern. In 1981 a team of only three members led by Kikuo Ibe was formed to produce a watch which could fulfil the Triple-10 concept; able to resist a 10 meter fall onto a hard surface, water resistant to 10 bar, 10 year battery life. This makes it easy to keep tabs on the natural environment and to maintain logs of all activity for comprehensive flight mission support. The motto also appears on the inside of the case as part of the Royal Air Force badge, with the case doubling as a display stand.When starting the timer, again through the top-right pusher, the large second hand starts quickly rotating counter clock-wise towards the set time. This is what this watch is excellent in, very clear to read while looking great on your wrist; what else do you need from a € 900,= watch?
