You all know the Riseman.

they will have a different Mudman.

Gulfman and MTG looks pretty much the same but with China atomic capability

 

[mansrow]

the best looking so far is still the MTG, followed by the Riseman, Mudman and lastly Gulfman.

thanks for sharing !!!

Finally some better looking photos of the GW-9010. It's still a little 'off' to me though.

Big market there :-!.

The translated version is here. What the heck, earthquake sensor or is that translated wrong?

Nice promos. Thanks for the link.

I really like the new Mudman. :-!

"Shock and vibration resistant", I think.

Well, given the latest news might be marketing for China... ;-) (tasteless joke, I konow...)

I like the new Mudman too. :-!

:-d:-d:-d
It says: "shock resistant sensors."
The paragraph below explains that in the riseman, sensors are also embedded into resin for protection. They now even work when impacted

Are you sure the Gulfman and MTG have Multiband 6? I don't see anything conclusive on the page or in the photos. The Gulfman still has the 5-shooter. You would think they would have these set up for the Chinese atomic signal, but I just want to be sure.

They're Multiband 1 :-d (China signal only IIRC)

 

[stockae92]

LOL @ multiband 1

and i wonder what would happen (whats going to show up) to the atomic locator (the 5 dots) on the Gulfman :-s

 

[Sili]

Makes a lot of sense for Casio to cater for the China market with these new Multi-Band 6 pieces. I suppose Multi-Band 6 is the way of the future for coming releases. :-!

 

[Clearview60]

Perhaps we can make a lot of money buy mass purchasing these, making them stealth, & then selling them to the UK & US military for covert ops in China??:think:

 

[ultramanpat]

Thanks for the pics! I like the new mudman, black buttons!

6, pah..... I'm going to put up a tiny transmitter in my basement, they better follow with a super-band 7 line.

Now where did I up that cesium....

I just saw the policemen in Hong Kong controlling the crowds as their new "Olympic" series currency is being circulated to the public. I am not supprised by the crowds (after all how many people are queing for the IPhone, and currency collectors are probably as crazy about their stuff as we are about G shocks) but O was supprised by how many Hong Kong policemen were sporting G shocks like it was on issue.

It has got me thinking about Chinese market for G shocks. Obviously the PLA will have their mil issue Shanghai made mechanical watches. But if personal preference due to profession kicks in. Casio would get the market of the worlds largest standing army and para military forces. The Peoples Liberation Army to market to.

I wonder if those Chinese made G shocks do get to Hong Kong, would we see the price of G shocks get lowered slightly?

Very interesting comment, Big G.

I can't even begin to imagine the size in manpower of China's PLA. If Casio obtained a contract for supplying G-Shocks to the PLA, that would be great numbers (and money, of course).

Of course I think the local watch industry has the upper hand there in any case. But maybe Casio could increase its investment in China.

4 million plus from what I last heard for the standing army alone. Contention with the Western countries and Russia as to the numbers of what constitutes the PLA, as the large numbers of PLA have been reassigned to the police force and are considered para military men.

That is not counting the reserves. And probably swelled up in numbers for the olympics.

Thanks again, Big G.

Did you see any specific G-Shock model/models used by the policemen you saw? :think:
