Our take on the Casio G-Shock GBD200SM Digital Sports Watch

The G-Shock GBD200SM is a square digital sports watch built for training, with Bluetooth linking to the G-Shock Move app for step tracking and workout logging. It pairs a black translucent resin bezel with purple accents and a resin band, and it is shock resistant with 200M water resistance. It suits runners and gym users who want a rugged step-and-workout tracker without a smartwatch screen. Against the base GBD200 it is the same watch in a bolder colorway; against a smartwatch it gives up notifications and a color touchscreen but keeps G-Shock toughness and long battery life.
