Whats the difference between the 2018 and the 2016 versions?
It’s the same, just different colors and bands here.
OK, so whats the status of the issues reported with this watch? https://www.g-central.com/gulfmaster-gwn-q1000-defect-reported/
I’m going to Japan in a few week and looking to get one.
Someone said the defect was supposedly resolved by April 2017 (but we have no official confirmation), so these three models should be okay.
GWN-Q1000MCA-1B, Does this model come with a black rubber/resin band or the stainless steel link band? I prefer the rubber/resin and do you know if it comes with the stainless steel band, can that be replaced?
It’s a composite band. I believe it has resin links with stainless steel inner parts and a stainless steel clasp. You can replace the band.
Is there any known issues with the GWN-Q1000-7A (white model) from 2016?
That was one of the first models so it could probably have the defect, but not all watches had the defect. The defect was allegedly resolved by April 2017.

I think the safest one to buy now would be the GWN-Q1000A-1AJF which is still in production and sold in Japan.
GWNQ 1000 has another issue. Dead pixels on the LCD display. I had changed the whole module once while under warranty. Now it happened AGAIN. Too bad my warranty had expired and Casio wanted $500 for a new module. The price of almost a new watch. I took it back without repair. Avoid this GWNQ 1000
