Very simple: it looks stunning. This is the only all-analog 2100-series watch offered by Casio aside from the MR-G model, which costs several times more AND has less functionality. This does nearly everything the analog-digital GA-2100 watches can, despite being all-analog; the only difference is the chronograph mode measures in units of 1s instead of 0.01s. It’s every bit a G-Shock, and damn stylish. It is NOT light, but few Full Metal G-Shocks are. It’s one among the nicest watches in my collection.
