- Is the GA-2100BM-7A8 hard to read?
- The pale silver-white dial lowers contrast, so the hands can be hard to see in dim light. The small negative LCD subdial is also dim. If legibility matters most, a dark-dial GA-2100 is easier to read.
- How does it compare with other GA-2100 models?
- It shares the same slim case, module and 200m rating as the standard GA-2100. The difference is the translucent resin and light dial. It lacks the solar and Bluetooth of the GA-B2100 line.
- Does the clear resin turn yellow?
- Owners of translucent G-Shocks report that clear resin can yellow and pick up grime with sun and sweat exposure. Cleaning helps, but some discoloration over years is common.
- What is the battery life?
- Casio rates the SR726W battery at roughly three years with normal use. It is not solar, so the battery needs replacing when the watch stops.
- Is it good for swimming?
- Yes. The 200m water resistance covers swimming and snorkeling. Casio does not rate it for scuba diving.
- What is in the box?
- The watch, a Casio manual and the standard G-Shock tin. No extra strap or tools are included.
- Where is the Casio GA-2100BM-7A8 cheapest?
- At First Class Watches, for $160.00, as of our latest check.
