The reputation of G-Shock was built upon its watches ability to withstand just about anything. And over time, Casio did the only sensible thing which was to make it even more durable and pack it with even more technology and function. And in that regard, it can be said that the Mudmaster GG-B100 is the embodiment of all of G-Shock’s accumulated know-how over the past 37 years of the G-Shock’s existence.
To start, the Mudmaster GG-B100 uses a new type of case construction called Carbon Core Guard that uses carbon fiber-reinforced materials. This new method of case construction results in a stronger but lighter case. Inside, a new dust and mud resistance structure is used to keep dirt out – hence the Mudmaster name.
Measuring 55mm in diameter, the Mudmaster GG-B100 is a big watch. And its size is further accentuated by the large pushers on the sides of the case. Fortunately, the use of carbon fibre materials means the watch is still incredibly light at just 92g. To ensure the watch remains wearable despite its size, the resin band curves downwards sharply at the lugs. Even though my wrist isn’t that big – just over 16.5cm in circumference – the watch still fits nicely.
