I’ve got the previous 5610 model and it’s easily the best day-to-day watch I own. This new model has obvious improvements - but I can’t upgrade, the point of the watch is that it’s set and done and then lasts for a decade or more - replacing it every time a fancier model comes out seems to go against the ethos of owning the watch.

That's how I feel 😮. And you know, I have two other watches as well! The previous 5610 I own is the thing I wear every day for work or outdoor activities...that's 90 percent of the time! And it's unkillable. Just, it will never really win any awards for looks so I have one of those citizen promaster lands but Japan domestic market ones, just for a bit of exotic flare...and really quite tough as well, but can be worn with more smart casual clothing. And then I do own one of those Seiko automatics, field watches, which is proving to be more accurate than I thought and rather good as well for dress clothes..going out ...so just when I've thought I've gotten all the watches I need, this shows up 🤔

I purchased this watch just for fun because of its retro style. It ended up being my main watch! It's very light and comfortable. It has all functions an everyday watch needs. It wears good from business casual down to sportswear. Suitable for field work also. Not overly worried I might scratch it. Also do not need to remove it to do delicate work, does not bother me. It even took some bites from my German Sheppherd... Still looks like new, not a single dent on it. 💯

I just bought one about 2 weeks ago and now, my other 5 watches sit in the drawer. This is now my EDC watch and I can’t get it off my wrist! I only take it off at bedtime and leave it to sync. I didn’t think I’d like it because of the square, digital face. I usually prefer a round, analog face. After 2 days, I fell in love with the this watch! I think it definitely deserves the hype and glowing reviews it gets.

I flipped many watches over the past 10 years but this is the only one that I've kept around and I'm never intending to sell it. I have the original non-U version and I appreciate the improvements they made (I'm looking at you, useless timer subdial) but I think both models have the most important stuff being solar and atomic. I've modded mine with the orange combo of the MR4 version (rescue) but the standard black casing is really good too and it works with a lot of outfits. Combined with the red line around the display I instantly fell in love with this watch back in the day and I still adore it. I'd say if you are thinking about buying a dw-5600 save up a bit and buy this instead, it has solar and atomic, a better display (bolder numbers), full auto EL and a really cool milled case back. Most importantly, it has a standard adjust button, not the stupid recessed type the dw lineup has. One of the best price/value watches ever made.

I picked up one of these recently (-1CJF from Sakura), and I'm really pleased with it. There was no doubt in my mind with this purchase because I already owned & loved the GWM5610. The various improvements in the module show Casio did listen to customer feedback, and my personal favorite g-shock is even better for it. I actually feel like the 5610U is one of the best _products_ a person can buy, not just one of the best watches. Yes, I like it that much!

Indeed a no brainer. However, I currently have the basic 5600 series and it’s quite a beater of a watch. I find myself wearing it for all my « hard work » (cleaning around the house, gardening, yard work, cleaning the pool, etc.) It’s inexpensive and my heart doesn’t skip a beat when I knock it around. With the higher price of this updated version, I may not have the same attitude with it 🤷🏼‍♂️ Thanks for sharing!

Great watch - solar and atomic setting. My only fault is when you view on an angle it blurs out. The cheaper DW5600 doesn’t do that - you can see the time at any angle, that watch is slightly bigger too. The 5610 is my go to watch until I bought the GA 2100WS (white band blue face) - for the summer it is awesome looking!

I have the older version. The 1.5 second back light was a big reason I stopped wearing it as my work watch. 3 seconds will be a lot better. I think they could have done better by offering a night mode like the Timex Ironman. You hold down the light for 3 seconds to activate it. Then the light will go on for 3 seconds with the push of any button. It's very helpful for operating the timer or stop watch in the dark.

Its been great, never took it off once. I just wish it had the bigger buttons, dim in and out LED fully back lit and the brick pattern on the face. I mean, I really beat it hard! it still has no scratches is literally a mirical! I catch and snag it lots.

I love your videos! Great voice and right to the point. I just got this watch. I had the normal 5600e (battery) and wanted this look. Two other things that I noticed (and don't like) are the very strange over contrast to the display, which results in a very narrow viewing angle vs. the normal squares. For example, glancing down while driving, typing, laying on the couch and not wanting to move the dog, etc.. I cant just glance down and read the time anymore, I have to turn my wrist and face it to my eyes vs. the battery versions with lower contrast, this was never a thing. The second thing, is the tones on this watch are VERY low. (even lower than the atomic GW6900 that I also have). So, I think in the end the thing that frustrates me the most, is that it seems Casio can just never seem to "get it all right, at the same time". They make you choose what features you want and then your stuck with the other things along the way. (hard to read screen, terrible backlight, or a size that is just foolish too large). I think they should make less watches and focus on getting ONE really perfect ;-)

I've already heard from few people they dislike the bluetooth option. I'm not really sure why, because there's no reason for that. I have a GW-B5600 with BT, and I don't even use that option. Tho, it may come handy in the case you're out of reach of the radio signal. So, the BT option doesn't hurt the watch in absolutely any way, but it still can be useful when or if you ever need it.

@@damyr BT is the response to the Millennial generation that are cellphone-centric, and a step ahead toward the Smartphone market that took Casio by storm. Casio, considering its experience and innovation under the watch market, could really step up into that market, for some reason they want to differentiate themselves by not doing what everybody else is doing, which I am fine with that. Atomic radio controlled has some downsides, reception and sync can be tricky, and also some governments are questioning the need to keeping the RC towers active (in the states they want to get rid of it). I'd say that BT and RC can coexist, if it is just for the time sync sake and you can disable BT on the device itself. I bought one of these G-Squad GBD-200, with all the BT nonsense and I cannot wait to sell it....

@@nicolascarrion5055 Never had it, but I guess GBD-200 looks and feels like a smartwatch, so I feel you. I dislike smartwatches, too. But GW-B5600 is different. It's just like a classic G-shock with inbuilt BT, but it doesn't actually need BT connection. BT is just there for your convenience, and with very limited options. I never use it anyway, but it's nice to have one more option, just in case. Especially if one day radio towers will be scrapped. So, no need to worry. Btw, if you want to know more details, this channel made a tutorial video about GW-B5600, and there you can actually see its BT functions/options.

I chose the tough Solar with multi-band 6, so it will update itself with the atomic clock from the wwv radio signal broadcast from Colorado. I was concerned that here in Southern California may be too far to receive the signal, but the first night the watch updated fine, and I have no reason to think the technology won't continue to work just as well.

Ill keep the previous 5610 model as i like the color of the backlight so much more. That color looks fantastic. New grey backlight is meh. The light is much more important than all those setting adjustments I will never use.

Bought this watch a few weeks and am loving it but there is an issue (as confirmed by others). Although it has a countdown and alarms they are in fact useless as they are so quiet. They can't actually alert the wearer.

Hello @watchgeek Just about 10 years ago, I purchased a solar atomic Mudman (GW-9010). I really liked it. However, some months ago, the EL started lighting up by itself and the watch is now unable to recharge. I need a new G-shock as a result but the prices on Gs have gone up, so I'm looking for a solar atomic in the same price range as my old Mudman in 2010. I think I paid just around £90 or £100. The only current atomic solars in this price range seems to be the squares, the 5610u specifically. What I liked about the Mudman was that I didn't baby it a all - it took a beating and just kept going. Not really sure about the square shape and I think the 5610 may have ttoo much text and colour on the dial. On the other hand, if I spend more, I'll fret more over damage. Which solar atomic G would you recommend? Can I expect the 5610 to be as durable as the Mudman in general although it is not mud resist?

I prefer the look of EL, but I heard that the EL backlight doesn’t have the long lifespan of the LED, so Casio changed it. So supposedly, the LED will last longer than the EL will. I don’t know. I have a Timex Indiglo watch that I’ve had for almost 20 years and the Indiglo backlight still works. I wonder if the lifespan issue is just a corporate rumor, I wonder if Timex didn’t threaten to sue Casio for stealing technology. Meh, what do I know?

@@totallyfrozen it's not a corporate rumor. EL backlight degrades overtime and it has been seen in older G-Shocks with this backlight. It depends upon how much you use it.

I may be in the minority here but I actually really like the G Shocks where the backlight stays on for as long as you hold the button down. To me, that seems most functional. I have the auto backlight version also but that honestly just gets annoying. It often lights up when you don’t need it at all.

I'm surprised this one got updated. Not upset, but surprised. I assumed the GWB5600's were the replacements. I've got a couple of those and like them. Maybe this is just still around for parts of the world that wouldn't want the bluetooth radios.
