Casio Mudman 63.5mm Mens Watch Black
Ref. GDG-B100-1ER
Sits in Casio’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Casio watches we list, which start at £20.
Price range £20 to £919 across 152 Casio watches in stock.The GDG-B100 is what happens when Casio crosses two of its G-Shock lineages: the mud-sealed, gasket-buttoned toughness of the Master of G Mudman family, and the fitness-tracking MIP display architecture that until now belonged to the GBD and GBX Move series. Released in 2026, it is the first Mudman to carry an accelerometer and step counter alongside the mud intrusion protection the line is named for. Carbon fibre reinforcement inside the bio-based resin case keeps the whole assembly at 66 grams despite a lug-to-lug span of 63.6mm — a size that sits assertively on the wrist but does not punish the arm for it. The Memory-in-Pixel LCD earns its place in direct sunlight where conventional backlighting becomes invisible, and the automatic red LED keeps the display legible at night without collapsing the wearer's dark adaptation. The caseback carries an engraved mole with a compass, a small piece of Mudman tradition carried forward into what is otherwise a substantially modernised watch.

Learn more about Casio
Tadao Kashio founded Kashio Seisakujo in Tokyo in 1946 as a machine shop. The company's first success was a finger ring that held a cigarette, and its second was the 14-A of 1957 — the world's first all-electric compact calculator, which used solenoids rather than gears.
Casio entered watchmaking in 1974 with the Casiotron, a digital watch with an automatic calendar that knew the varying lengths of months. The company approached watches as an electronics manufacturer rather than a horological one, and that difference produced the G-Shock.
The G-Shock came from a single engineer, Kikuo Ibe, who broke a watch his father had given him and set out to build one that could not break. The specification was three tens: survive a ten-metre drop, ten bars of water pressure, and ten years of battery life. It took over two hundred prototypes, and the solution was suspending the module inside the case on a cushioned internal structure rather than mounting it rigidly. The DW-5000C shipped in 1983.
It became one of the most durable product designs in any category, adopted by militaries, emergency services, and skateboarders alike, and Casio has since added solar charging, radio and GPS timekeeping, Bluetooth, and full-metal and carbon variants.
Casio also produces the Edifice, Pro Trek, and Oceanus lines, and remains an independent Japanese public company.
