I own the 5610 and later bought the 5000 thinking I would upgrade and replace my 5610. WRONG. I sent the 5000 back. This was one of my most overblown purchases ever. The only true “upgrade” for me was the screw back itself (could care less about the steel casing because the plastic version can withstand an F-250 running over it, and you never see it anyway, so it felt moot). Regardless though, both case and screw back in no way justifies the 5000’s cost in my opinion. The 5000’s buttons are a headache to push, utilizing a stiffer spring. And the thinner, supposedly more premium band was, well...."meh". I'll never really miss it. Another thing that I haven’t seen mentioned In ANY G-Shock square reviews, is that there are actually 3 different sized buckles for the square models. The smallest is on the standard 5600 models (not sure about the Bluetooth models), the medium sized buckle is on this GW-5000 model, and even though the 5610 is the smallest of all the squares (but still slightly wider than both the other models), it ironically has the largest buckle of all the squares. So you’re actually getting a smaller buckle on the 5000 vs the 5610. Not by much, but nonetheless, smaller. Though a good watch and made of better quality, the GW-5000 is truly for the collector only. If you’re thinking of “upgrading” from the 5610, I’d be hard pressed to believe that you’d be happy dropping the 300 bucks for this thing when comparing the two watches side by side. And you're STILL getting a deeper recessed glass on the 5610! I had major buyer’s remorse…but that’s just me…you may still like the 5000 better. Just my two cents.

Не сказал о самом существенном отличии GW-5000U от 5610, а это то, что сам корпус более дорогой модели изготовлен из стали, и, следовательно, место крепления ремешка или браслета к корпусу , более надёжно, т.к. пластиковые "ушки" модели 5610 могут сломаться... Ну и ещё одно отличие : модель 5610 не ложится нормально на широком запястье, у 5000го корпус чуть побольше и нормально сидит на руке.

As a watch collector with half of my collection consisting of G-shocks, I find this watch interesting. But I find where a watch is made being least important. The screwback case definitely makes it look more premium, even if it is not visible when the watch is on the wrist. And the more comfortable strap is an advantage. But I thought you would mention the better readability of 5000 screen. I have never seen a 5000 IRL but I have read several other reviewers mentioning this. So if the screen is better and the watch is more comfortable on the wrist I consider to get one. And: I agree with many other about that the 5000 version could could have more colors.

I am a manufacturing technician that works hard labor and I have to wear gloves for 12 hours straight every single day. I have heard people talk about some kind of "combi" bracelet? I am not sure what that means, but I am needing something that is very comfortable. Can any of you fine gentlemen give me some advice? Also, when replacing the band, do u have to have proprietary tools to do so? I ask because I haven't a clue on how to even take the band off to begin with. Any help/advice is greatly appreciated!

Hello Brendon, I’d think the stock band fits your purpose best. Just leave it on and you’re good. The combi bracelet I mentioned is a bracelet made mainly from plastic. Very light and doesn’t show any strap “tail”. But I think this isn’t as tough as the good old stock strap you have on the 5610.

After buying both, I can say that I prefer the 5000 for 3 reasons. The biggest is the strap. The second is it feels more “substantial” because of the extra weight. And the face is symmetrical. Is it worth it spending double just for those things? For me it is, but I think most people will be completely happy with a 5610.

justmeeagainn, you spend your money however you want too. Yes, this watch does have a screw down stainless steel case back but the build quality is definitely more premium because the inner case is metal(stainless steel)and not plastic like the other. However, it is a matter of choice. Also, please be mindful that this is a "tough solar" watch, so the chances of you having to open up the screw down case back anytime in the next 10 to 15 years is most unlikely as long as there is sun or any other source of light present to charge the battery. Don't forget the multiband6 feature so you won't ever need to even adjust the time as long as you live in a part of the world in line with an atomic clock radio signal. I collect gshocks and already own the cheaper one but the GW-5000U is the way!

I like the color style of the GW5000 more, but not so much that I'd spend $300 over it over the 5610U. The other reasons, while nice, don't sway me. The Thailand screw-down 5610u is still guaranteed to be durable, and ordinary Casios have been high-quality no matter where they're assembled, for decades. If money were no object for me, maybe I'd buy the 5000, but 5610 is still the champ when practicality is taken into consideration. The GW5000u still looks incredible though.

Then in 2021 the updated version was released but I didn't want to upgrade this watch to the U version(because I love the EL backlight still) but still wanted the benefits of the newer features of the updated U module. Therefore, I decided to purchase the "tough solar" only G-5600UE. However, I always wanted a more premium square with screw down case back and found the GW-5000U to be the cheapest of all such squares. I recently made this purchase and waiting on it to arrive directly from Japan. This will make a total of 9 squares in my collection, 4 of which are: 1tough solar, 1tough solar/multiband6/bluetooth, and 2 tough solar/multiband6.

Nobody mention that gw5000u is aprox. 2 mm bigger (in all ways) than gwm5610u. And heavyer too. And little big expencive! Casio selling same design and technology last 35 years. I have dw5600 and gwm5610u. And know what?! I pay extra for gw5610u because he has tough solar (make me nervous on medium and low during long sleeves season) and multiband (recive signal only if you leave it on special place in house, near window itd.). I love Casio G shock sqares but DW5600 is enough to have in collection.

The humble DW-5600 is a good watch too. No frills, always reliable, many different colourways. I’d say all the square models are legends on their own right.

What’s the difference between 5610-1 and 5610-u?
@AndyinSG
@AndyinSG 3 ай бұрын
The U suffix denotes a newer module. Has some new features like LED backlight and date display option etc. Works better for me as I prefer to my date in dd-mm format.

You only talk about the caseback on the GW-5000, while the big difference is the full stainless steel case, vs the resin case on the 5610. This makes the GW-5000 a lot stronger, especially where the band connects to the case.

gw-5610U definitely, the backplate is not the real reason, and it is lighter which is much much bigger reason at the end of the day. The strap, once you put it on your arm, you can't feel the difference....

Just the fact the GW5000U has a proper screw down case back is a reason enough for me to choose it regardless being more extensive. Although the case back with the 4 screws in the GMW is a cut above the regular G Shocks, it's still not as water resistant. I've seen some old well used G schocks that were water damaged cause the think rubber seal didn't keep the water out after years of use With the screw down case back you can actually surf, dive, swim with it without worry, which for me is a must since I'm in the water all the time

I think the Frogman is definitely the best Master of G digital watch, as it's far better built than the Rangeman and has less reported issues online. However, for the regular G-Shocks, I think these two are definitely the best. I'm still deciding between the two, but it all depends on how I find the overall build quality of the GW-M5610U, in terms of the resin case, strap, buckle, and the buttons.

​@@AndyinSGI actually got the GW-M5610U a week later from my original comment, and I sent it back straight away. It felt too cheap, didn't really feel that much different from a basic £10 Casio watch that I got 10+ years ago, despite being 10 times more expensive. I held off getting the GW-5000U, as I decided to get the GBD-H2000 instead, but now I'm considering sending it back and getting the former.

All the comments remarking about the 5610 being better do not own a 5000. Own both then say which is nicer, there is a significant difference. The 5000 never needs to be adjusted to time as it receives multiband signals each night. The 5000 will always be accurate to the millisecond. The 5000 will change minute at the exact time as your phone, always. It is the most no-fuss watch in existence.
