Casio G-Shock G7900 Tide Watch $114 (Club Membership Required) C&C/ in-Store Only @ Anaconda

180

Impress your friends (and strangers) by knowing at the drop of a hat whether the tide is coming in or going out. Anaconda are having a sale on this watch, which I could not find cheaper. It's for club members, but membership is free. Comes in three colours:

No delivery, but stores seem to have some for in-store shopping and free click and collect.

Edit: add code BIRTHDAY10 for $10 off (thanks @tdw!)
2nd Edit: seems like stock is running out, but some stores still have it.

  • This can detect tides?

    • +8

      Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon (and the sun but to a lesser effect). The location of the moon in respect to the earth at any point is easily projected in advance. Thus, it’s a novel addition to the watch.

      • Tide goes in, tide goes out. Never a miscommunication. /s

    Rollll Tide

  • What's the grey bit on the underside (near lugs)?

    • +7

      They are "wings".

      They help to either fill the gap on smaller wrists or keep the watch better positioned (hugging) on your wrist during activity.

      Edit: Also one pro tip.
      Depending on the size of the opening, many G-shocks that come with wings can easily be converted to Nato strap type solo loop bands without any adapter.
      Just remove/unscrew the wings, remove the band then pass the Nato strap through the wings as you put them back on.

      While this video is not for a solo loop band, here is a quick video to give you an idea of what's to do https://www.youtube.com/shorts/OUZ_nGU-mXI

      • have them on my gba800 where the lugs hang over the edge of my wrist and the benefits are exactly as you described.

    Got the black one from BCF for $50 yonks ago. Nice watch. Tough and durable and especialy good for metal detecting hobbyists who like to know the tides.

    Yeah but I have the feeling it’s too expensive for that sort of watch these days. No solar charging, no Bluetooth etc.

  • So do you set a location for the tide? It doesn't seem to have GPS to work out location.
    The tide for start and end point for a kayak trip in an estuary could vary a couple of hours.

  • Sorry, guys, I have absolutely no idea how this watch works. I'm not really the target market and have no need to know what the tide is doing. But I thought it might help somebody!

      have absolutely no idea how this watch works.

      Witchcraft ofcourse how else?

    If you're a fisherman this is a handy watch to own…other sites quote battery life at two years btw.

  • Tides go in, tides go out… you cannot explain it so….. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUeybwTMeWo&ab_channel=BenPo…

      On the phone I just read that as "tiddies go in, tiddies go out" lol.

      Bonk. Ok I go back to horny jail.

    add code BIRTHDAY10 for $10 off.
    i don't need to know the comings and goings of the tide but this has positive display, autolight and flash alarm.

    • "BIRTHDAY10 for $10 off."

      You the real MVP 😀.

  • Cub membership required, pfft

    Soon mcdonalds will require a 'club membership' before you can order a big mac

    • Yeah, I don't like the 'club membership' idea either. I wonder if anyone does?

  • Can't add to cart??

    • Yep, looks like it's sold out.
