Our take on the G-Shock Men's Connected Fitness Watch GBD300-1

The GBD300-1 is a G-Shock Move fitness watch built around a shock-resistant black resin case, 200 m water resistance and a high-contrast MIP LCD with Super Illuminator backlight. It pairs over Bluetooth with the G-Shock Move app for activity history, life-log data, training plans and phone notifications, and runs on a user-replaceable battery rated around two years with no charging. It suits people who want a rugged training and travel watch without a touchscreen or daily charging, and it trades smartwatch features like GPS, heart-rate sensing and app ecosystems for durability and battery life. Owners rate it well overall; the usual complaints are the basic step-and-workout tracking and the small, button-driven interface.
