I just bought this watch yesterday (11 June 2024), was a bit shocked that the in box user manual basically only shows you how to set the time. No information on the alarm, timer, or stopwatch functions. Not to mention some hidden features like the flash alert and timer auto repeat. Great video, thanks!

[@drpwnage23]

Thanks for the great video, that was much faster than trying to read through that tiny folded up booklet they give you in the box

Your tutorial is probably the clearest on KZbin. Can you just clarify on the alarms, I may be misunderstanding so can we set 4 alarms or just one of the 4?

Hi brother, thank you for your kind words. Unfortunately you can set only 1 of the 4 alarms. You cannot set all alarms at once.

This would be my favorite watch if only the top left button was easier to press.... I bought this watch once and sent it back because of this... I am thinking of getting the GW-M5610U in the future.

[@gfreaksays]

It's actually recessed in purpose so it wont be pressed accidentally cause that is the adjust button. However, if yours is very difficult to pressed, there must be some issues on it.

[@jeffreyyoo86]

Is the Adjust button hard to press for you? I have to use a paper clip and poke at the button, my finger can't do it. Do you have any tips?

[@gfreaksays]

Have you tried adjusting the bezel?

[@bobmarley6161]

Fantastic... Thank you kindly... I have only discovered the g shock squares.. I love them... I don't like big g shocks... I also love casio protrek watches.....

[@gfreaksays]

I switched to square g-shocks only a year ago. Previously I was into GA-110 and rangeman models but after buying my first squares, i totally fell in love with it cause it's super comfortable and sits perfectly on my wrist. It also goes along pretty well with longsleeves shirts and jackets since it's not that bulky.

[@scott1564]

Can you reset the countdown timer to what it was set to previously? For example: say I set it for 5 minutes. It ran for 4 and a half. I stopped it for whatever reason and wanted to reset it back to 5 automatically. Does it do that? Does it go back to 5 when the original time runs out? I don't like the ones that start counting back up or whatever. Thanks for the review!

[@gfreaksays]

Hi, let me check later.

[@gfreaksays]

Hi, yes you can reset it back to start whenever you want. Just press the "Start/Stop" button to stop the timer, then press the "adjust" button to reset to the starting countdown time. Once the countdown reaches zero, the alarm will sound. If the auto repeat function in on, it will reset to the starting countdown time and start the countdown again.

[@Wastelander13]

How much is this casio DW 5600E in 2022?

[@martinamartins9595]

Can you tell me what A.el on Gshock? How we disable it?

[@gfreaksays]

EL stands for Electro-Luminescent which is the backlight of the watch. AEL is Auto Electro-luminescent. When it is on, the watch backlight will turn on when you tilt the watch toward your face (at a certain angle) to view the time without pressing the light button. To turn it on/off, you just have to press and hold the light button for about 3secs.

Try to check the battery if it's properly in place or try to replace the battery itself.

This might be due to a weak battery. I had the same issue. Once I changed the battery, my watch started working normal.

I read some article saying it's actually intentional. Because it's the adjust button. It's recessed a bit to prevent accidental press. Same like 6900 models. The adjust button is a bit recessed compare to other 3 buttons.

Hey I've had my 5600 e for about 2 months now, and it seems to loose about 1 second of time per week. Can anyone tell me why this happens?

[@gfreaksays]

If I remember correctly, I saw in Casio website that there will be slight variations of (+/-)15sec per month.

[@fuckedup798]

@@gfreaksays Thanks man!

[@roadgent7921]

The tech explaination is - it happens due to "drift" in the quartz oscillator frequency. It should be 32768hz, however due to heat, cold, manufacturing tolereances of the crystal and also current fluctuation through the coil. it can be off by a few hertz.which will equate to a few seconds per month. Your 1 sec a week is slightly better than the average for most quartz watches. If you take the back off the watch, as if replacing the battery, there is a "trimmer condenser" screw on the centre left. This can be used to adjust accuracy...but is very difficult to get right. Best wishes.
