In the past I owned a gshock (model G 7700 1e) and I was very pleased with the fact that I dont feel any worry about the watch in my everyday life and has nice features too, so i'm a few clicks away to have this g shock around my left hand in about 5 days :) because i'm from Romania, order from amazon. I wish you all the best. Hi to everybody, a 10 note review, thanks andy for sharing your work with us.

I've been looking at atomic and non atomic versions on different websites, the features are exactly the same, am I overlooking something, can somebody please clear this up for me before I buy one, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed. Thank you. You guys obviously know alot about the Riseman.

I suppose I could try this with a GPS, but I'm too lazy to calibrate my altimeter! That's OK; the barometer is the function I use anyway. Bringing both to calibrate at the beach is a great idea.

I have the non-atomic version, the G-9200 Riseman, and I'm enjoying it as a gadget freak myself. I'll be bringing my Gulfman to the beach this weekend, but I'm thinking of tagging the Riseman along as well; I've been meaning to calibrate the altimeter measurement according to actual sea level.

Not only do I only wear the 1 watch for everything, I usually will wear that watch until superglue and ducktape will no longer keep it on my wrist. Would you happen to be the Andy Chen that knows an Andrew Baker from CCFN, (LCD WIndow Employee Case Mod winner, a few years back). If you don't know what that means, then your not him. ;) If your him. Hello, and hope all is well with you. If your not him, well hope all is well with you anyways.
