Quick Jump: View all G-Shock Mudmaster GWG-1000 Models
The highly anticipated GWG-1000 Mudmaster is now available for sale. This new model combines features of the Mudman and Rangeman with an analog/digital hybrid display. It has a case design that looks like a cross between an aviation G-Shock and the Rangeman, giving it a tough and tactical appearance. Model numbers are GWG-1000-1A (black), GWG-1000-1A3 (black with olive band), and GWG-1000-1A9 (black with yellow band). List price is $750.
The GWG-1000 is designed to withstand harsh environments like the desert or mud. It has a protected button structure like the Rangeman. In addition to mud resistance the watch is also resistant to heavy vibration. Like the Rangeman, the Mudmaster features the Triple Sensor with compass bearing, altimeter/barometer, and thermometer. It also has Tough Solar charging and Multi-Band 6 radio time synchronization along with the standard shock and water resistance (200 meters). Other specs include low temperature resistance to -10°C or 14°F, world time (29 cities, DST on/off), stopwatch (24 hours, modes: elapsed time, split time, 1st and 2nd place times), countdown timer (max 60 minutes), 5 daily alarms, hourly time signal, auto-calender, and dual LED backlights for the analog and digital displays. The watch measures 59.5 × 56.1 × 18.0 mm and weighs approximately 119 grams. Pictured is the GWG-1000-1A3.
The new Mudmaster is a tactical-style watch that combines advanced technical features with extreme durability and takes the analog-style G-Shock to another level. Casio has been focusing on analog designs for its high-end G-Shock watches lately, and it will be interesting to see how this trend continues in future models. The GWG-1000 will be getting a lot of attention as one of the premium G-Shock models.

UPDATE: The retail price for the GWG-1000 is $750. Recently discovered leaked model numbers also show a listing for a GWG-1000GB-1A “Master of G Black and Gold” seasonal December 2015 release for $800.
UPDATE (August 24): Casio America announced the release of the Mudmaster GWG1000-1A3 and GWG1000-1A9 and stated the Mudmaster is part of the Master of G line.
Usability Update: The Mudmaster GWG-1000 has proven to be very popular, especially with customers in the United States and Europe who are looking for a very large and rugged outdoor watch.
GWG-1000 Pros: Triple Sensor for outdoor activities. The electronic crown allows for quick and easy setting adjustments. Very rugged style with mud and dust resistance. Ideal for large wrists.
GWG-1000 Cons: May be too large for smaller wrists. No sunrise and sunset time like the Rangeman GW-9400. Only available with inverted LCD display, which can be more difficult to read.
Alternatives: The battery-powered Mudmaster GG-B100 is smaller with a Triple Sensor plus a step counter and Bluetooth smartphone connectivity. The Rangeman GW-9400 offers similar functions with an all-digital display. The GBD-H1000 also has a Triple Sensor and solar charging plus a step tracker, heart rate monitor, and GPS timekeeping. There are also many Pro Trek watches with Tough Solar and the Triple Sensor.

Mudman & Mudmaster…which are more suitable for Female?
I would think the Mudman since it is smaller, but big watches can look good on females too.
Do they make a GWG 1000 1A3 that has a positive display instead of a negative one. It has all the features Im looking for except that one
Unfortunately there is currently no GWG-1000 model with a positive LCD display. Perhaps that will change in the future.
Hi, is there any difference between GWG-1000-1A3DR and GWG-1000-1A3ER other than price? I’m working in India where the former is available for equivalent of £450, whereas it’s listed for £660 on the UK site. I’ve bought G-Shock in India in the past which did have a difference (didn’t have the multi band 6 feature), but I can’t see any immediate differences between these models other than ~£210!
It’s the same. The DR suffix means it’s meant for export outside Japan. The ER suffix means it’s meant for the European market. It is the same model.
Great, thank you!
G-Central…..you rock!! All queries dealt with with complete precision. Kind of like the watches in question. And that’s all I got to say about that.
What does mean an additional letters ‘ER’ in the type of watch, ex. GWG-1000-1AER?
It means that watch is designated to be sold in the European market. Otherwise it is the same as any other GWG-1000-1A model.
Do you know where I could still get the official rescue red mudmaster?
No sorry, it seems to be sold out everywhere.
Is there? Or will there be available metal band for GWG-1000?
Thanks
No, and probably not.
Hi. Can u tell me please what there are different prices at the same model gwg 1000? I leave in Romania and there are 4 different prices between colors. Are there any other difference beside colours? Thank you
They are the same other than the colors. Some colors have limited production runs, or use ion plating on the metal parts for different color accents, so that will make it more expensive.
I need help.
I bought this Casio G-Shock MudMaster GWG 1000.
The LCD has a black background.
Is there any feature which can invert the colours of the display ?
I am used to the ProTrek which had a clear background with white digits.
No you cannot invert the LCD display.
Thankyou.
