About this deal

This bold collaboration between the top brand on the skate scene, the outstanding Team G-SHOCK athlete, and Casio delivers a simple, yet singular design that skateboarding fans will definitely want to get their hands on! We've all likely damaged a steel watch and thought that was it; it's ruined, but a G-Shock almost looks good with damage. The G-Shock DW-B5600 adds Bluetooth smartphone link to the original G-Shock case, which adds functions such as automatic time adjustment, world time with approximately 300 cities, auto summer time switching, time and place log, and phone finder. Prior to launch, Kikuo Ibe and the team created no less than 200 prototypes until a breakthrough happened in 1983, leading to the now famed G-Shock Shock-resistance core you can find in modern Casio G-Shock watches. This gives more peace of mind, as some rivals are stuck with an inferior plastic one, which could be a crucial point of failure.

The original styling and wrist presence have little changed since it debuted, but it didn't need to. DW-5600 Rating By G-CentralWith some models like the DW5600E-1V available at deep discounts, the DW-5600 provides excellent value for those who need a rugged watch, but it lacks the features of more advanced models. It's a watch that can take a beating and keep on ticking, a testament to Casio's vision of creating a timepiece that withstands the test of time and lifestyle. p>This bold collaboration between the top brand on the skate scene, the outstanding Team G-SHOCK athlete, and Casio delivers a simple, yet singular design that skateboarding fans will definitely want to get their hands on!

They say it's a good looking, not too chunky, and is a little more subdued in appearance than most G-Shock models. Not only are their watches extremely distinctive but you get superior protection with trademark shock-resistance. However, the cardboard box it did come in was small and flimsy, and, more importantly it didn't come in the one pictured in the original sales post.

For example they say it has a strong build quality, excellent case protection, and is a reliable watch.I expect this watch to gain about 30 secs in 6 months, so I'll just reset it when the hour changes, simple. Of course, there is one weak point to most affordable G-Shocks, and that is the crystal; it's only mineral. Unlike some similarly-designed watches, the strap is not absurdly long, so you problably won't be left with a huge amount of excess.

This is at no extra cost to yourself and enables me to keep writing reviews of watches and products I genuinely think you will enjoy or find useful. Note: New DW-5600 models with Module 3525 (introduced in May 2023) have an LED light and a longer battery life of approximately 5 years. A very special triple collaboration all about skating — G-SHOCK is proud to team up with TEAM G-SHOCK skater, Kelvin Hoefler, and US skateboard brand, Powell Peralta. It just makes life too complicated, and press the wrong button and you're in trouble if you don't have the manual to hand. Casio became involved in electronics in 1954 when they released Japan's first electro-mechanical calculator.On the other end of the spectrum, there's the negative display used on the Green version of the watch. This large, 3D design has the previously mentioned protruding elements to protect the vital module further; preventing the case rear from impacting the ground directly in most scenarios. All this means that the 5600 will fit wrist sizes similar to mine (6 inches) as well as larger and possibly a touch smaller. The model comes with a CR2025 battery, which, according to the manufacturer, lasts for about 2 years. But when importing to the target country the custom authorities might add the individual country/item Tax afterwards and you need to pay the amount usually before parcel will be hand out to the receiver.

Luckily, unlike many other G-Shocks, the DW-5600 is quite versatile and fits my slim wrist just fine, wearing better than expected in that regard. Now mineral is pretty good at surviving drops, though it's not particularly scratch resistant, so there is a trade-off versus harder materials like sapphire.

Whether you're navigating different time zones for work or seeking a reliable timepiece for everyday adventures, the DW-5600 adapts to your needs.
