Introducing: The Casio G-Shock Digital GBD800UC Series!

The Casio GBD800 Series has been a real hit with customers, but some people prefer the more muted colours. Casio has them covered, with the Utility Colours series, while making sure to keep all the features people love, exactly as they are. Let’s see what the fuss is all about!

GBD-800UC-3-0

First up is the GBD800UC-3D. This is considered the military version because of its dark green colours, matching army uniforms. The band and bezel are dark green, with the writing and buttons being completely black. Under the glass it’s a fully digital display, so the numbers and texts are much larger than in the combo watch. The cool thing is, while it’s a negative display, it still incorporates the green motif, with even the numbers and text, instead of being white, are green on a black display.

Next up is the GBD800UC-5D. This one is more dirt brown, with the text on the band and bezel being black. One thing you’ll notice is the indicator with the Bluetooth sign on the top right corner of the display. There’s markers surrounding it, which show what functions are turned on (that’s a great idea if you want to preserve power). The indicator here is a mix of black and gold. Again the digital display keeps with the motif, with the numbers being brown on a black background.

Finally we have the grey GBD800UC-8D. This one is more black than grey, with the writing on the band and bezel being even darker than the band itself. The display here is the closest to a normal negative display, with light grey/white numbers and text on a black background. The mode indicator on the right is made up of different shades of grey.

So, now that we’ve gotten the looks out of the way, let’s see how these watches work. First thing you should know, these are the first Casio Bluetooth watches that are fully digital. One of the best things about full digital watches is the backlight is much more powerful, and lights up the entire screen, making it much easier to see the time.

The GDB800 Is known as the step counter watch. This basically functions as a pedometer, which can’t be fooled by you just moving your arms. It’s got a 3-Axis Accelerometer as well as letting you save up to 200 laps (most watches will only let you save 60 laps). You can use these features to calculate the amount of calories burned as well as for making future plans.

Speaking of future plans, this watch comes with a very special alarm that beeps if it can tell you haven’t done the required amount of walking to reach your goal. So basically like a personal trainer, with the added benefit of not having to pay after every session :)

Now, this watch is Bluetooth enabled, which also gives you an all new range of features, such as being able to change the time of your watch through the phone. That’s a great feature because most of the time, the phone will have the most accurate time.
