G-Shock G-9300 / 3261 / Casio Professional Watch

Inexpensive representative of the G-Shock Mudman line. The name speaks for itself – the G-9300 case with a special design of buttons and other connections, which prevents dust, dirt, sand and other small particles from entering the watch. One of the most affordable professional jigsaws [Master Of G] to date. Despite its relatively low price, madmans are equipped with a whole set of useful features – a dual sensor [digital compass and thermometer], displaying data on the phases of the moon in a particular place, a stopwatch for 1000 hours, a timer, an alarm clock and world time. Fluorescent backlight fully illuminates the entire digital display area. Thanks to the solar battery, you can forget about replacing the battery for a long time – a special panel under the dial captures the sun’s rays and recharges the battery.

The most distinctive specs of G-9300 *Editorial
— 200-meter water resistance (good for swimming but not for deep diving)
— Mud Resistant (helps to ensure that nothing gets into the watch when down and dirty work takes you deep into the dirt and sludge)
— Tough Solar (CASIO’s original solar-charging system converts not only sunlight but also light from fluorescent lamps and other sources into power)
— Digital compass (measures and displays direction as one of 16 points)
— Thermometer (can measure and display the outside temperature in a range from -10 C to 60 C)
— Moon data (moon age of the specific date)

Official Marketing Focus from Casio

This new MUDMAN model is the first one to be equipped with a direction sensor and thermo sensor that help you keep your bearings whenever you adventure into parts unknown. The touch of a button goes directly into the Compass Mode from any other mode. A Moon Phase graph gives you an idea of whether the nighttime hours will be dark or light. A declination function even makes it possible to adjust the watch’s magnetic north direction reading so it indicates true north.
All of this plus Tough Solar to keep everything working, and total shock and mud resistance to keep everything well-protected.
