Dumb watches going obsolete. Use the money on a smart watch if you are planning to give this as a gift.
Naaah. I literally never take my watch off. I have no desire to manage charging my watch every night or every other night. I don't want to take off my watch when I water ski or surf. I'm extremely hard on my watches and I need something that will stand up. Gshock for me. I might be in the minority but there is nothing a smartwatch offers that I want for a watch besides the time and stopwatch.

Smart watches become obsolete after 2 years and are between 3 and 6 times this price.

I don't see how these are good deals. Both solar atomic watches I considered are the same price on Amazon or $5 cheaper but they charge a $9 shipping fee.

This has to be a troll post right? You wanna know what's obsolete? My pile of smart watches that don't have developer support anymore or don't hold a charge.

At the time I posted many of these watched were much cheaper than Amazon. Amazon often drops their prices to compete and that's what happened here. For instance, the GWM5610-1CR atomic solar pictured in the post was $111 on Amazon when I posted this deal; after I posted, it dropped to $78.95 (or $70 plus a $9 shipping fee). You can check CCC to confirm or just take my word for it. Amazon's price is also a good deal.

A good deal is when an item is significantly less than its normal or historical price regardless of where it's being sold (assuming the store is reputable). Amazon is more convenient, but just because it's close to a price on Amazon, doesn't mean it's not a good deal.

I was scratching my head going through almost the same thoughts when buying TI calculators for my kids...

A watch needing to charge everyday, who's the dumb watch?

these are quite smart, digital quartz precision, time to the hundredths...stopwatch, countdown count up, alarms, nightlight readability. Solar power! Atomic time best accuracy available. What more you need? bc if you need more , you probably already got a smart POCKET watch in your purse or pocket it called smartphone lol

don't be a suckah

Exactly! While I own a smart watch, the current tech can never replace a conventional watch that last for many years (Ive had my Gshock for 10 years now)

Shockingly they have replaced mine.

Just a tradeoff of more features and for more hassle.

I like G-Shocks but to be honest they are less appealing comparing to some tougher smartwatches like Garmin Instinct series nowadays....

Somewhat of a cult following rooted in being tough watches (often used by military, police, divers, etc). Much tougher than regular casios. You can find pictures online of very beat up gshocks that still work. They also have a trendy fashion aspect of having unique colorways and collaborations watches. Also for those who prefer digital to analog watches (like me), they have many digital options. The toughness and digital options is why I buy/wear gshocks.

Show me a smart watch that you can take in freezing weather as well as dive to 200m and not charge after a week.
