This episode of the Good Timekeeping Show is an in-depth review of the Casio G-Shock "Rangeman" GW-9400 watch which uses Module 3410. These set-up instructions also apply to other versions of the GW-9400, such as the GW-9400-3, GW-9400J-1JF, GW-9400BJ, GW-9400BTJ-8JR, GW-9404KJ-3JR and more which use the same module.
These watches each have Casio's Tough Solar power supply to keep the batteries charged automatically with normal exposure to normal lighting conditions during daylight hours. They have Multi Band 6 atomic time reception to automatically keep them set to the correct time every day. They have Casio's Triple Sensor, which includes a compass, a thermometer and a barometer. The barometer is used both to show barometric pressure readings and to calculate altitude measurements. The Triple Sensor readings can be displayed in metric or non-metric values (meters/feet, C/F, etc.). The user can also use this watch to record altitude readings for later review or to track altitude changes while climbing and hiking.
These watches also feature five daily alarms (one of which is a snooze alarm), an hourly chime, a one thousand-hour stopwatch, a countdown timer (up to 24 hours) and a World Time mode to display the time in another time zone anywhere in the world. This will also calculate sunrise and sunset times for the current time zone with the ability to enter latitude and longitude coordinates for more accurate calculations.
In this video I go over the functions, features and set-up procedures for this watch. This model has been available since 2013. When I recorded this review in 2019 the "street price" was typically between $175 and $190 in the U.S. market.
