Casio G-Shock Analogue/Digital Gulfmaster Mens Diving Yellow Watch GWN1000-9A
Tough, bright and easy to spot!
Casio’s Gulfmaster series has a reputation of being tough, as well as easy to use for budding and seasoned navigators. This model is no exception.
The GWN-1000-9A has what’s known as the Triple Sensor Version 3. This means it has a barometer, a digital compass, altimeter and a thermometer. All tools that are needed to get you where you want to go.
For mountain climbers, the altimeter is essential, as it can tell you just how high you are, which can help you with preparation for getting further.
The barometer is also a must for any explorer, because working together with the thermometer it can warn you of any sudden weather issues, so you can dress appropriately.
The GWN-1000, unlike the 1000C series, is very bright and eye catching. The GWN1000-9ADR is bright yellow, so if you drop it somewhere and retrace your steps, it should be quite easy to find it again.
As it’s a G-Shock watch, Casio made sure that this model is 100m Shock Resistant, meaning that if you bump your wrist, or if it falls, the watch will still function fully. They even included a mineral glass to protect the display and avoid any scratches.
