I want to give a friend a watch that would be useful for sports, travel and everyday activities. He is quite active, but does not disappear right in the gym. Plus, he’s sick of touch screens and the abundance of what he calls “useless contacts.”
In short, we needed a device with physical buttons that would not only show the time, but also provide basic additional features without frills (tracking steps and adjusting the time via a smartphone).
As a result, pay attention to the GBA-900-1A model from Casio. The line, of course, is G-Shock. I think you should also pay attention to the watch if your lifestyle is not particularly sofa-like. 🏃♂️➡️

These watches are packaged, as usual, in a branded box (tin can), which clearly hints at the “trueness” of the brand. The watch case that can be found inside is plastic, practical in the WR200 class – it allows you to safely scuba dive. In terms of size, this is not the smallest option, but it is definitely for those who love fashion accessories.
The watch is equipped with Bluetooth for synchronization with a smartphone. You can access a number of features: setting the time, step counter and physical manifestations of other physical activities. There is a stopwatch and timer, as well as 5 alarms.
Some characteristics:
▸ Brand: CASIO
▸ Collection: G-Shock
▸ Watch type: unisex (closer to men’s)
▸ Mechanism: quartz
▸ Waterproof: WR200
▸ Materials: polymer case and bracelet, mineral glass.
▸ Features: Bluetooth, chronograph, stopwatch, timer, 5 alarms.
▸ Display: analog+digital, calendar, world time
▸ Power supply: battery (service life approximately 2–3 years)
Everything is thought out. There are no difficulties with setup: you connect it to the application on your smartphone and enter everything you need through it – you’ll figure out the buttons later.
The watch is light and durable enough that you won’t be afraid to take it on any adventure. Be it running, mountains, water or everyday routine. In principle, they should not be removed even while sleeping, but I think they are too bulky for this scenario.
All in all, if you are looking for something that will fit perfectly into your fast-paced lifestyle, then these CASIO G-Shock GBA-900 are an option. 🕟 A very good compromise between smart and downright stupid people.
