My fiance got me this watch as a gift. I'm a US Infantry Marine and these features such as the compass and temperature help me greatly along with the easy to read dial and especially the ability to set it to mils grid vs magnetic for land nav. This video saved me from reading through hours of manuals and for that I thank you sir.

@17:56 - Actually, if I'm not mistaken, it DOES have the time swap function. Press the Light and Adjust buttons simultaneously and it will swap the alternate and home time zones. I saw another youtuber demonstrate this. Great videos by the way, you do a fantastic job showing the details of how these watches work. I find it so valuable because many of these features are so subtle that it's hard to figure out what they do.

The compass is nice,it lights up nice, but my MTG-900 is still better at telling time, date, day of week day or night. It's not as bright but my old eyes can read it easy without glasses. It has the tilt up auto light feature but most importantly its wave-ceptor style (pre wave-ceptor I think). It's solar too. Honestly, I think it's the best g-shock ever made because it's the most practical. I cant even believe some newer models ditched the wave-ceptor and the solar. All the excess stuff compromises the display readability. The MTG-900 has typical other functions, multiple alarms and a snooze, but one misunderstood one is the timestamp. I use it to review security footage when I think someone might have ripped me off. Saves time reviewing video footage. But the main thing is I can look at my watch in dark and without struggle see time, date and day of week without hardly need to focus. Your watch, even though much brighter on shows time well.

Hi, finally very good review, your explenation is very good and simple, now I know how to use this watch because its manual can be complicated for someone who is new in this like me for example. I had the only one problem my watch always after seven to ten days started to show the wrong analouge time again, you explained this problem at hands home position . I did this every ten days but it is annoying because you never know when the analouge watch will start to show the wrong time again. I took the watch to the service and they told me that everything is fine no problem in mechanism so I hope it will work well but I don't know if this problem will come back again then the watch has some serious problem. thanks

First off, thank you for very informative videos. I'm currently thinking about buying this watch, specifically GA-1000-4B model. However, I've got one question: you didn't mention in your video, whether it has "Hands Shift" feature, or not? Thats quite important to me, since I'm planning on using most features, but the analogue hands clearly can get in the way of digital displays sometimes. That's already quite expensive watch to me, and although I've browsed dozens of online shops offering this series, I can't find any info on that anywhere. Product descriptions simply miss it. The weird thing here is, that cheaper models, like GA-400HR you've already reviewed HAVE this feature, but their product descriptions in online stores don't mention it either, so the rule "if it's not in the description, it's not there" doesn't apply here. BTW, I'm from Poland, so I'm planning to buy it from one of polish online stores (certified, of course) and I've already tried to obtain the info on "Hands Shift" feature to no avail. Thanks in advance!

I believe it will remain stationary at the 55 second mark or so, until I tap the watch in my hands. Then I have to perform a hand adjustment to get the second hand synced with the digital time. Its frustrating man. I wonder if this model has a de facto counterfeit Power Save Mode of some sort?_*
