Incoming - Casio GBD-200 - My First G Shock
I’m slimming down my watch collection to some easy to manage classics (Cartier Tank, GS 9F etc.)
However - I needed a running watch.
In the past I’ve used Apple Watch but would like to keep it a bit more simple.
Enter the GBD-200 in fetching neon colour way.
Does anyone have experience of this / tips?

Fairly new to watch collecting. Super fast collecting journey which landed me eventually in Cartier love. The Tank is a GADA watch.

I’m tempted to get one of these as well, but I want the blue JDM version, I might pull the trigger if I can track my walk/run miles properly with the casio app… saw a review on it, I should re-read his review before I pull the trigger …
found the review…

All I see myself using on this are the time functions and tracking runs. Will definitely turn off notifications etc.
I hope that the run tracking is accurate enough - there is mention that it calibrates itself via your smartphone - that would be good. I don’t need perfection but let’s say 5% error (did I run 5km or 10km!)

I agree, it’s pretty much what I’m going to use it for as well. I have an Apple Watch and Fitbit already. I asked the guy that reviewed it on how the tracking works…
Oooh she’s a beauty
Ok so little first impressions..
looks great, feels great, screen lovely.
all the time functions etc good and easy to use.
the running function - I’ve got it set to have GPS and ”learn” - I tried it on a couple of short walks. The first one it’s distance measurement was about 15% out. the second one it was only 2% out. so hopefully it’s learning!
