    New Mudmaster GWGB1000-3A

    Anybody have one? The one feature I absolutely love in G-Shocks is the Barometer. Use it all the time. I was planning on getting a GWG2000-1A3, but those seem to be hard to get and being replaced by the new model. Sold my Mudman, and I was really going to miss the sunrise/sunset calculator, but I guess that's finally available on the Mudmaster.

    The three huge things drawing me to this watch:
    1. Analog/Digital Display (Sapphire Crystal)
    2. Barometer w/change alarm.
    3. Sunrise/Sunset Display.

    Bluetooth? It feels weird. I'm somewhat against it. I really don't like watches that collect bio-metric data and will never own one, though this one doesn't do that. Still, I'm not so sure about having a watch that connects to my phone. Should I shut up and join the future? (Seems a ton of G-Shock are doing some sort of bluetooth connectivity.)

    Would love to hear some thoughts on this one.

    Nice. Sadly, it's way bigger than I would be comfortable wearing.

    8.5 inch wrists.

    I can comfortably wear my friend's GPRB1000. Fortunately this will fit me just fine.


    EDIT: Just ordered my GWGB1000. Should be here Friday.

    Fits my wrist fabulously.

    The app seems pretty easy to use and I’m finding it quite handy for making adjustments. My Apple phone can block tracking, so I’ve only given the app permissions while I’m using it.

    Haven’t played with the waypoint or phone finder feature yet. Dunno if I will.

    Really I’m just happy to have a fancier Mudman. The lume is probably the brightest of any watch I own. (LLD of course not known for such things. )

    After a week I think I’ll type up some more specific impressions, but so far so good.
