Review on Wrist watch CASIO GBD-100-1 by Ewa Sarbinowska ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The right product for me, the price suited me.

What I wanted when I bought this model: 1. Jishok 2. Good readability of time indicators 3. normal backlight 4. Cute brutal design. 5. Reliability. Did I get it all - yes I did, so I personally am very pleased with the clock. What can be improved in this context and what makes me a little upset? 1. The inventors of the inverse screen need to tear off their hands. Why sharply reduce the quality of reading indicators, I do not understand. Make a light green screen and contrasting black numbers with a larger size - and everything will be fine. 2. The clock suggests recharging from the sun. On the other hand, a standard battery is used there, to change it every few years - I don’t see any problems. Why you might not be happy with this watch. - if you're expecting something like a fitness bracelet, don't expect it. This is a different device, this is a watch with additional functions, they will not even replace the simplest fitness bracelet. About notifications from the phone, in my opinion, you can forget. The small screen, with control from the buttons, the actual absence of vibration and a barely audible beep - immediately discourages the desire to use this function. I used it all for half a day and turned off the connection with the phone. It is convenient to set the clock from the application - that's all, in my opinion.

Pros
  • Nice design, discreet enough for G-SHock, not gigantic in size - just right for me. good readability of time indicators, a separate button on the stopwatch. The ability to configure via BlueTooth, the backlight of the entire screen, indestructibility from Casio and excellent assembly, a fairly modest price.
Cons
  • BlueTooth is an extra function in the context of an alert, vibration is for the sake of appearance. Alert signal - as in a conventional electronic watch - squeak. inversion screen. everything related to notification from the phone is done for the sake of appearance. If you have vision problems, you will not see indicators on some screens.
