I have the original DW-6900 for around 25 years now. I bought it when I was 10 years old. It got two new batteries, a new bezel and a new band over the years, but it's still one of my favorites. Good investment by the 10 year old me I think.

I have a 6900ms (1289) that I’ve had for over 12 years. Gives you that classic 90s look I grew up with. Perfect middle ground size. This thing is tough. I’m a full time automotive mechanic and have given this a beating since I got it. It’s been soaked in hot dirty motor oil, gasoline more times then I can count over the years. I scrub it off with a dirty sink brush with gritty soap that most mechanics use. I’ve worn it shooting in the blazing hot dusty Arizona desert all it’s life, swam all summer, raced and crashed dirt bikes wearing it. Banged around all its life. It’s super lightweight for its size and wasn’t very expensive. All I can say it’s survived everything I’ve thrown at it.

I wasn't going to get into G-shocks, but I found one of these from the 90s at a flea market for a steal, but it was missing the G button, bezel/case protector and the original strap was worn and cut to be shorter. I then hunted down the components I needed and now it looks almost as good as the watch in the video.

That’s part of the appeal of G-Shock watches. Wear it, beat it, and when it starts to look a bit scruffy, you can fit a new bezel and band and it looks like new again! You can even change the color, switch to a combi bracelet, fit a bullbar, a metal bezel or even a full metal kit and completely customise it. I recently picked up a totally worn 12 year old rare white GW-6900, bezel has paint that peels of, band is broken. Guess what, function wise it is perfect, charging, battery, Multiband are working flawlessly. So now comes the fun task to refurbish and possibly customise it. Gotta love Casio!👍

My DW6900 is ten years old and still on the original battery with heavy use. I wouldn't worry about the battery life on most DW G-Shocks. The alarm is also much louder than its solar counter part and the watch can withstand greater temperature ranges due to the CR2016 battery properties compared to the solar version battery. Great review and glad you like the watch.

Although the DW-6600 is a little bit too large for my wrist I absolutely love both of them because when the going gets tough, the G-shock gets going. 😄

For a better “looking” and a better “fitting” G Shock (for us smaller wrists...) - take a look at the AWG-M100B...AND as a bonus is Solar powered and has Multi-Band 6 Atomic Timekeeping. Also, comes is a few different color variations - search “AWGM100”. Then remove the cheap plastic watch strap and put on the SEIKO KN20 strap from the Mini Turtle (with very slight trimming for the lug width difference) - and Bam!! Nice watch that is very comfortable to wear. “Life is Good!” :)

My major problem with watch straps is the bit that holds onto the strap that stops it flapping about snapping and coming off. How do you replace them? How do i replace a casio buckle? Can you order a replacement strap if needed from casio as well, as your average jeweller never seems to have a replacement strap that looks like it matches the watch. How do you replace the buckle on a strap from plastic to metal, and can you get the correct replacement from casio directly? Sorry for all the questions, as i'm a casio G-shock newbie.

Love the 6900 series. Everything you said here, you got it exactly right! It's like a fusion between all the other models that came before it at the time. So, so cool! Although, I'd recommend the GW model over the DW, not only does it have tough solar / multiband 6, but it's also got a three letter display for the day of the week instead of only a two letter display used in the older models. Plus the three eyes are actually used as indicators for settings and whatnot, instead of using all three of them to count the seconds.

Hello Madman. A couple of things, and please correct me if I'm wrong. You mention your DW5610 as the "original square G-Shock". You may have unintentionally misspoken, but the way I understand it that title goes to the DW5000 that came out in 1983. The DW5600, which I own, is it's direct descendant and the DW5610 just happens to be the solar-powered version. The DW6600 is totally LEGIT! I still have mine that was issued to me by the military back in 2009. It was featured in the movie "American Sniper". I still have it and it's still going strong. With moderate use the battery lasted more than 10 years. It is my "lucky watch" and I use it as my flying watch. The DW660 is discontinued but my understanding is that the DW6900 (featured by you) is its direct descendant. All and all all these models are great watches; any model with the G-Shock brand is. Check out my personal favorites, the military style models DW5600MS and DW6900MS.

Is this Y2K compliant or do you have to set it to 1996 like other watches?

Nice! Must admit I’ve ended up selling both my 6900s as didn’t get so much wear. If you want to see a cool square - check out the G7800. Good resource is shockbase if you haven’t used it yet.

The rules for "size on wrist," and what's "too big," are different for G-Shocks than for other watches. They're deliberately big and chunky, and what would be "oversized" or "too big" for any other watch simply doesn't apply when it comes to a G-Shock. "Too big" is kind of the whole point.

It’s a good point my friend! When it gets to the point that it looks like either yours dads or big brothers watch that’s when it’s too big;)
