Among men's digital watches the choice is wide, and the vast majority of the range is Casio: G-Shock, Pro Trek, Edifice, Collection and Wave Ceptor. Tough watches full of features for work, training and hiking. As an official Casio dealer, we deliver your watch to your door with the manufacturer warranty, and if a battery or strap needs changing later, our own watch service helps with that too.
Which Casio digital watch should a man choose?
- G-Shock – the biggest men's series in the range. The first G-Shock, the DW-5000C, appeared in 1983 and was built on the Triple 10 principle: a 10-metre drop, 10 bar water resistance, a 10-year battery.
- G-Shock G-Squad and Mudman – for training, and for muddy, dusty terrain.
- Pro Trek – for hikers, with outdoor features.
- Casio Collection and Vintage – simple, affordable, reliable everyday digitals.
- Wave Ceptor – sets itself to the exact time from a radio signal.
Solar or battery-powered?
Some men's digital watches are solar, meaning light charges their rechargeable cell. If you rarely take it off and spend a lot of time outdoors, that is convenient: you don't have to bother with battery changes. A battery-powered quartz is more affordable, and the battery in a good Casio lasts for years.
How water resistant is a men's digital watch?
Most models are 20 ATM, so you can swim, even snorkel, with them. Some Collection pieces are only 3 ATM, and with those you should avoid the shower too. We state the water resistance on every product page, and it is worth checking before you order.
You will find analog watches in the men's watches by movement section. When choosing online, also pay attention to case size and weight: the G-Shock is chunkier, while the Collection models are lighter and flatter and slide easily under a shirt sleeve.

The Casio G-Shock, because it is built with a shock-resistant case and typically 20 ATM water resistance. For rough terrain, the G-Shock Mudman and Pro Trek models are also good.
Can I swim with a men's digital watch?
With 10 and 20 ATM models, yes; most men's digital watches are like that. A 3 ATM watch can only take splashes.
What is the Casio Wave Ceptor?
The Wave Ceptor is Casio's radio-controlled watch series, which automatically sets the exact time from a radio signal. You don't even have to deal with changing the time.
What does the price of a men's digital watch depend on?
On the series and the features. The Casio Collection is the entry level, a basic G-Shock is in the middle of the range, and the solar, radio-controlled top models are in the upper price range.
