Push it even further with the G-SHOCK MOVE GBDH2000 — a selection of G-SHOCK multi-sport watches with heart rate monitor and GPS. These watches come packed with functions for tracking all kinds of workouts.Measure your heart rate with the optical sensor; use the accelerometer to count steps; and take swimming sessions up a notch with a gyroscope that detects strokes and turns. Not only that, sensors that detect orientation, altitude/atmospheric pressure, and temperature help you navigate through whatever you do. You can even tap into the Polar smartwatch library to analyze workouts and post-sleep recovery. Whether running, cycling, or swimming, these watches are essential gear, fully equipped for any and every sport you love. Real fitness and health should include environmental considerations. That’s why we’ve made the band from corn-based plastics. Produced from renewable organic materials, these plastics are high-molecular, chemically or biologically synthesized materials that help reduce environmental impact and facilitate the shift to a circular economy. Charge with either USB or solar, and you’ll stay on your game.

Needs work... hoping they update it.
Let's start with the hardware... it's much lighter and slightly smaller than the H1000 is replaces. the resin back looks and feels good, the aesthetic is classic g shock chonk which you are either here for or hate in which case why are you here. The buttons aren't very responsive, need a good hard push and a pause in between when navigating menu, which gets old fast. It does at least lay flat too unlike some recent models. And the charger is just weird, a big fat clip thing that holds it firmly in place, I guess that's good? It feels like quality, if not £350 of quality. The sensors are quality ones, accurate by early accounts - ran it side by side with an Apple Watch and the count was always within 1-2 bpm so it feels accurate, though many 'pro' runners are saying it's nowhere near as accurate as a chest strap.But let's talk about the software. Yes it's firmware upgradeable, so let's hope they upgrade it, beyond the day one patch you have to install. There are only 5 clock faces, of which only 1 is customisable, and 3 of which are generic. The app stinks. Doesn't sync with google fit/apple health, hopefully that will come eventually. There are so many weird limitations, like can't put a world time widget on the customisable clock face. Can't turn off wake up alarms at weekends. Notifications work, I guess, slightly better than the previous models because at least they show on the home screen... let's see if Casio cares enough to improve it...4 weeks later and can also report, sleep tracking just straight up does not work, while the pairing between phone and watch breaks down every 1-2 days and you have to reinitialise it all. Not great. Not even good.
