Only feature I might want to add to dw5600 is that red line on the dial of 5610, it suits very well on this design.

Yeah, and you don’t have to worry about whether your watch connected to the Fort Collins signal or not, depending on where you set it in your home. Just an extra headache that you don’t need, especially when everyone already has atomic on their smart phone. You always have a reference clock on you if you want to recalibrate every now and then.

I already own the 5600, and was thinking about "upgrading" to 5610. However...after watching this I'm going to stick with what I've got. The light is brighter and longer on the 5600 and it retains the time when going through the other modes. It also keeps nearly perfect time although it's rated at +/- 15 sec per month. Also, if you don't use the alarm and light too often these batteries can go for 4-5 years. Lastly, the atomic clock in Denver may be removed soon, rendering the atomic feature useless anyway. Compare the price and see what works best for you.
@barreltech89492 жыл бұрын
Good idea, the 5600 is good enough, some people even get longer battery life. 4-5 years is usually the average, pretty solid

rechargeable battery will not last forever and it will need replacing too. it's good that the power saving mode is there to reduce the recharge cycle of the battery. one more thing it's also useful if you don't use and expose the watch to light source regularly.

I went with the DW 5600. It looks cleaner.Less writing on the case and less notifications on the screen. Also the dot matrix numbers of the date seems out of place next to the other 7 segment numbers. Plus the light stays on longer. Also not a fan of the red line around the display either. Too bad, as the solar charging and the radio signal setting is still nice to have.
