Connected sports with the G-Shock G-Squad H-1000

Posted 21 October 2020 by Miriam

Does this ring a bell? Sat inside too much during lockdown and gained some pounds. Then there is good news for the G-Shock enthusiasts among us who would like to exercise a bit more often. The G-Squad sports watch line from G-Shock has been expanded with new GBD-H1000 connected watches with integrated GPS and heart rate monitor. This way you can train even more efficiently and return to top condition.

All G-Shock features with extras

The G-Squad naturally offers everything you have come to expect from G-Shock: extremely shockproof and extremely waterproof, despite all the advanced extras that make these new watches the perfect training partner.

Textured buttons for better grip

G-Shock is known as a very robust watch and on the GBD-H1000 extra attention has been paid to the design so that the watch is especially suitable for athletes. The case and push buttons are provided with an anti-slip structure for better grip and ease of use.

The plastic parts on the case back wear comfortably on the wrist and match the flexible, water-resistant urethane strap. Because the strap has many holes, the band ventilates well and can easily be adjusted to any length.

 

Five sensors including optical heart rate monitor

On the back of the watch you'll find an optical sensor with an LED light. This detects the blood flow under the skin and measures heart rate. The oxygen content can also be determined.

A 3-axis accelerometer detects body movements and measures the number of steps and distance traveled even when no GPS signal is available.

Other built-in sensors measure compass heading, altitude, barometric pressure and temperature.

Analyze your routes with GPS

New for the GBD-H1000 is the GPS function. The GPS determines your location, measures distance traveled, speed, pace and other data. With the built-in GPS, the watch receives data from GLONASS and Michibiki (QZSS) satellite systems. By synchronizing your watch with the G-Shock Move app you can view route maps and track your distance traveled.

In the app you can create your own training schedules and even export them to other apps such as STRAVA, Google Fit and Apple Health.

 

Always enough power through combined charging

Unique to the GBD-H1000 is that the watch is charged in two ways. Daily use of the watch (time mode, pedometer and notification functions) is powered by light energy only charging. So you don't have to worry about that. 

The GPS, heart rate monitor and other training functions require more energy. Therefore, the watch can be additionally charged via USB. After about 2.5 hours of charging, the training functions can be used continuously for up to 14 hours.
