Watch Review

G-Shock are one of these brands I always enjoy featuring on the site, I believe they offer some very good value for money to people and that’s something that’s important to me. This model has that typical oversized style that we’re used to with G-Shock watches and comes with many useful extras that I’ll detail more below.

Protecting the dial of the watch we have a mineral crystal glass. This style of glass has been specially hardened to offer extra resistance to scratches and knocks. A key reason for going for mineral glass rather than sapphire glass is the added shatter resistance you get from mineral glass. For a watch that’s built to withstand a drop, this is clearly the right choice.

The watch has this satisfying durable feel to it that’s achieved with the thick resin that surrounds the stainless steel casing of the watch. This is a key feature of many of the G-Shock watches and a major part of the shock resistant design.

As I mentioned earlier on, the watch is very large with a casing diameter of 51mm and a thickness of 17mm. As you can see this is a fairly chunky large watch, that many people are going to love, but it’s also worth noting that this might not be so suitable for people with smaller wrists.

The watch includes a huge selection of features that I’ll list below:

  • Illuminator: The watch dial or display illuminates at the touch of a button, helping you to see everything, even in absolute darkness.
  • World time function: Displays the current time in major cities and specific areas around the world.
  • 2 stopwatch functions – 1/100 sec. – 1.000 hours: Time lapsed, interval time and end time are measured to the nearest one-hundredth of a second. This model has two independent stopwatches, each of it can time up to 1.000 hours.
  • Alarms: The daily alarm reminds you about recurring events with an acoustic signal at the time you have set.
  • Automatic calendar: Once set, the automatic calendar always displays the correct date.

Powering the watch we have a Japanese quartz movement, these are accurate and reliable so they’re perfect for an affordable watch like this.

As you’d expect from a chunky watch like this, it has a fairly bulky strap with a width of 26mm. This is made of a similar resin to the casing surround and blends in very nicely. The strap fastens with a typical buckle style clasp.

The watch has a 200m or 20 bar water resistance rating, this is suitable for professional marine activity, serious surface water sports and skin diving.

My Final Thoughts On This G-Shock GA-110MB-1AER Review:

The G-Shock GA-110MB-1AER is quite a typical G-Shock watch, it has that oversized design, useful functions, and just feels you with confidence, you know it isn’t going to just break down on you. They’re perfectly suited for people with a more active and outdoors lifestyle (fair to say that’s not be) and have always offered pretty fair value for money.

After looking into the watch design, quality, features, and pricing this watch received an 8/10 from us at The Watch Blog.
