I mean, priced at $500 and $600 for steel and gold coated respectively, we are no longer in the super affordable segment usually associated with G-Shocks but are taking on some capable indie and big brand dive and field watches… and so fair well, these two must.All images by David BredanAs I said, there are two versions: a full-metal case in steel as the Casio G-Shock GMW-B 5000 D-1 and an IP Gold coated one with the?GMW-B 5000 TFG-9. Their internals are exactly the same and neither are said to be
