 "Comparison of G-Shock to the Nike Typhoon Watersport" 2010-03-04
By J. Herrmann (San Francisco Bay Area)
I have both the G-Shock and Nike Typhoon Watersport(NTW). I need a tide watch because I boat in an area that only allows you in the water two hours before, and after high tide.

I've been using the NTW for ten years and it is perfect for the task of telling you the current days, high and low tides, and giving you the tide forecast of any day in the future. It is programmed for 180 beaches spanning the Earth. In the USA these match the USA beaches used as references for tide correction data.

If the reading you get does not match exactly the hard copy tide tables for the day, it is always within minutes. The watch also has all the std. features of any generic sport watch.

Now for the Casio. I bought this watch because I lead full moon rising, early evening hikes in my local state park. (Mt.Tamalpais SP in Marin Cty., CA.) The Casio also gives crude tide info when compared to the NTW, as well as the moonrise time. It also provides sunrise/sunset times.

I couldn't rely on it for the exactness required for tide predictions in light of the dynamic nature of the tides.

As far as Moon, rise and set, Sun rise and set, these are different. For instance you only need the fullest moonrise time once a month and sun times change gradually.



So in comparison to the NWS I have to give the Casio one star. But if it were the only choice there was, I would rate it higher.



I bought by first NTW at the mall, cheap watch store. After that I found them available regularly on Ebay. If you need daily tide information for work or recreation get one these for under a $100.00.

 "Mislead" 2010-02-17
By Robert S. Wilson (Houston, TX USA)
I live and fish on the Texas Gulf Coast. After I purchased the watch I learned that it does not have the capability to track 2 high tides in one day. The watch is basically usless to me. I'm dissappointed there wasn't information stating it would not work in areas that experience 2 high tides in a day.

 "A good watch for the outdoors type person" 2009-12-26
By Mike Ka'alae (SAN DIEGO, CA, US)
The watch is what I expected. Alway durable and reliable. I have owned many Casio G-Shock watches in the past. I am rough with my watches since I work outdoors. It is also convenient to have a tide table display on the watch. I rely on the tide table for catching the best tide for surfing some of the local spots in San Diego. The delivery was on time and Amazon is a company. I have had some bad experiences with other companies ordering online. For example: Advertising a product and then finding out a week later that they cannot deliver the product because they are all out of them. The only negative I can say about the watch is it needs to have the digital display of the time and date a little larger.

Thanks Amazon

 "Gulfman Tide watch" 2009-12-23
By R. Weaver (Florida)
The G-Shock Gulfman is a great watch. I've been wearing a G-Shock most of my life. I had to spend a few minutes on line setting it up but it was fairly easy to do. Bottom line, these watches are virtually indestructible. I love it.

 "Great watch until the band breaks (then $60 to fix it)" 2009-12-18
By Wiseguy (Northern Illinois)
I have a similar SPF-60 watch that has the same type of band. It worked great for over 4 years. I wore it everywhere and it was a great watch - I loved it. Then walking down the hall at work the band broke off the band housing. Found out you just cannot put on a new band. Sending it in to Casio they charge $60 to fix. The band on this watch is the same as the SPF-60. If you look closely there is no easy way to take the band off or on. It breaks where the band housing meets the case. Many other stories out there with the same problem that happens anywhere between 1 year and over 4 years. Watch is too expensive to have a design flaw like this. It is possible every couple years you will be spending $60 to fix the band issue. If this is acceptable, this is an awesome watch.

 "Functions well but buttons fall off!!!???" 2009-11-03
By Chuck E. Castle (College Park, MD United States)
Once you figure out how to program long, lat and GMT it works fine. One for the buttons fell off and another cracked. Sad part is I don't wear watch mutch. Crappy Construction kills this watch for me, and should keep you from ordering.

 "NICE" 2009-06-24
By Carter Hargrave (Tulsa, OK USA)
Nice Watch. I just returned the regular pathfinder for this one. The regular one has the nylon band backed with some kind of leather or pleathor that will end up looking like three kinds of hell in a couple of months or if you get it wet or happen to sweat like a pig a few times. This band is rubber and looks cool. I collect diver watches of various kinds that span cost from this to the rediculous and this is a good quality watch. The size is not bad. I have very small wrists and it still looks good on me. While the face goes from one side of my wrist to the other it does not look like a giant hubcap like some watches do. It looks cool and does a bunch of crap I will never figure out. I just like the compass and hey it even tells time.

 "great quality, not much class" 2009-12-21
By Q
I was looking for something specific when I bought this watch. I am a bit of a hard critic because when it comes to fashion I have some very specific tastes and I am not disappointed in the functional aspects of this watch.

I was looking for a classy looking, sport- capable watch and the price and features this one brings to the table just jumped out at me. The moon/ tide graph is great if you boat or spend time outdoors. The construction is very, very solid even more so than most dive watches. I would dare say it's the toughest watch I've ever held. I use it during military training courses and I have hit it against trees and metal several times and the resin case just shakes it off. I can hardly even see the marks from where I know I've hit it the most.

The disappointment is that I was looking for a nice looking watch I could wear to work, and this picture is altered to change the color. The bright blue color is one thing I really liked about it, and it does not look like that at all. It is actually a very dull navy blue and I don't see how any kind of "lighting" could have changed it so much. None the less it is a well made watch. It just doesn't look special. It has some rather deep guards around the buttons too and it is hard to press them quickly, especially without gripping the other side of the watch with another finger.

So if I could go back, I would get a different one but it is really a matter of preferences.

 "Great watch from Casio but the tide chart is not dependable." 2009-12-02
By Wilson A. Valdez
The watch is a g-shock after all. This is the fourth i have owned since i got my first at age 13 from my father. I bought this watch for work, i am doing construction work along the shore and the work is tide dependent. The tide graph is not very accurate and tends to be off by an hour and a half to two.

 "Not rating this item" 2009-10-27
By Juan M. Mencia
I ordered,returned this item upon receiving, re-ordered, and again returned. I was not sent the model I wanted as shown here with the light green dial, but rather a model with the case and dial in a light brown color (titanium), which I was told in a watch selling cart at a local mall is an older now discontinued model. The catch is that the model number G9100-2 is identical. Anyway, from what I saw I was not very impressed. The watch is not as bright a blue as shown on the website, but rather a dull dark blue/violet. The light tan dial is very difficult to discern without glasses unless your eyesight is an excellent 20-20. I have to hand it to Amazon tho, they were very nice about the whole incident, was handled very expeditiously and professionally. Their attitude gave me the assurance to purchase from them a different watch makers model ( at a higher cost) which I am very happy with. The old rule still applies: Although I am not discriminating this watch in particular, you do get what you pay for........

 "Awesome new toy!" 2009-10-04
By V. Timmons (Orlando, Fl)
Okay so i bought this for my boyfriend and he absolutely loves this watch. It has so many features and it is such a sturdy watch. This will probably be the last watch you need unless you want to but more colors. The only problem i had was when i ordered it they said it was in stock because i needed it by Aughust 31st. I ordered it on the 17th (5-7 business days) and it was promised to be shipped by the the 26 . Well it wasnt and i had to call and see what the problem was. Seems that it was out of stock and they wouldnt have it for anther couple of weeks. (WHich is weird because when i ordered it i made sure it was in stock) I politely told them i needed it by the 31st which by this time was in a couple of days and the women told me she could send me another color. Well as a mutual agreement i got the same blue G Shock Gulfman Tide and Moon watch except this one had pink where the white writing is. Other than that this watch is really nice. I would def purchase one for myself since he absolutely loves it.
