Good! I hope you like it. It’s not the most feature packed watch but it’s a G-Shock.

I came here for the watch reviews. I have nothing to say anything about the watches but want to appreciate your hard effort & energy level. It's really remarkable 👍. But please don't put too much pressure on you at this age. Don't take me wrong. I recently lost my father. This video remembering him a lot. Take care. Love from India 🤝🙏💚

Thank you, Mr. Hill. I like both watches too. Hard to pick between them.

Nice review! Wish more would do exactly what you did. One on each wrist and field test! -- the b-fang extended battery on Amazon is well worth it! But I switched to the 9d mate. (10w and duel rx for amsat) I tend to leave my 5dr at home due to short battery and a bit pricey for field / POTA. With that said, I tend to leave the smart watch home as well, hence looking for another watch... just like radios, cant have to many! 😂 73's!

Roger that! With the right watch and radio we can communicate and tell the time without a smartphone. Thanks for the comment.

Both are pretty great! Wish the screen was better on the gw9500

You get used to the screen after a while. The Mudman is just so tough I love it.

Your vidos on the the gbd h2000 changed my mine on the mudman thanks. I had picked up the negative screen mudman hated it cant read it. And to add the H 2000 you mentioned you wish you could remove some of the option you dont use. You can if you link it!! I know you dont want to but hear me out you can turn off the exercise apps you dont want diplayed on the watch though the phone. Then unpair it when you get it set up. But you do get alot of Benefits by linking it you can set your watch up though the phone easier.. great videos

​@@JimKinkadeThat's exactly what I did when I first got the watch. It stayed accurate for 6 days, before becoming half a second quicker.

Wow, the screen looks super dull on the GW-9500. I thought the positive display model had good legibility, but it looks so much worse than other positive LCD G-Shocks - like any of the basic squares. I'd say the GW-9400 has a superior display, but I wish the build quality was on par with this new Mudman.

Yes, the screen is a disappointment. The numbers are big but there’s a lot of reflection and refraction that leaves the screen looking dull.

@@JimKinkade Yep, I currently have the GWG-1000, and the display is beautiful. It's super legible at all angles, and I can't ever remember there being a time where I couldn't tell the time, regardless of lighting conditions. It's a damn shame this Mudman's positive display is lacking, otherwise it would have been a nice watch to pair with my Mudmaster.

Thanks man ,even the positivo mudman can’t read much I will pick gbd 1000/2000

Well I'm looking to replace my ageing out PRG 270, I would go for the one mudman , like you have. However ... The thickness of G shocks is always disappointing, so as long as the mudman is the same thickness as my PRG , yeah definitely ... Take care out in the desert .

Depends. GBDH2000 is very uncomfortable on my wrist while the GW9500 is so comfortable and spot on.

Really?! I find the opposite to be true. What do you find uncomfortable about the GBDH2000?

@ironmangx-1969

9 ай бұрын

@JimmyKinkade maybe its because of my wrist size and the bone on my wrist. Anyways both are great watches. Also the rangeman 9400 is uncomfortable on my wrist.

For some reason, I like the design of the GBDH1000 more than the 2000, maybe because of the steel back and a little more weight to it! Might be you could review the 1000 vs 2000 one day! Like your review style, very practical.

If I can get my hands on an H1000 I'll compare it to my H2000. I have a notification on eBay for the H1000. Just waiting for a bargain.

You would have been more comfortable with a GW9400 Rangeman.

The rangeman might lack some of the latest technology but it’s a great watch. I had a rangeman about 13/14 years ago and I’ve just bought one again in black with the positive display and it seems to be the same watch. Maybe someone else could tell us if there’s been any changes made to it over the last decade. But I find it to tick all the boxes for my requirements and I think it’s really cool looking too and comfortable and light enough for me to forget it’s even on.
