Casio G-Shock GA-200-1AER Watch Review Summary
My rating: 9/10, Excellent watch. Durable oversized design.
Casio G-Shock GA-200-1AER watch is ideal for people who work in the construction industry. You’ll find plenty of builders and even mechanics who swear by G-shock watches. They’re feature rich and extremely durable bulky watches, this one has a stainless steel core that’s wrapped in shock absorbing resin. This design makes it extra bulky with a thickness of 17mm. The dial uses raised hour markers and this cross design on the centre to add a layer of depth which adds an interesting feature to the watch. I’ll detail all this G-shock’s features in the specifications section below.

My Final Thoughts On This Casio G-Shock GA-200-1AER Review:
Casio G-Shock GA-200-1AER watch really does just make sense as the right choice of watch for those who need a timepiece that can take a hard day. Any of the G-shock series are worth considering as they are all well built watches designed to be durable. I rather like the design of this watch and the idea of cleverly adding that feeling of depth to the dial, not something you see that often. The only downside as mentioned before would be that due to it’s large size, some people wont find a watch this big very comfortable on their wrist. If you have a chance get a tape measure and compare 52mm on your wrist to see how big it would look. Other than that, like the rest of the Casio series, the GA-200-1AER is a watch I’d be happy to recommend.
