This is awesome. 100% agree with you that the market should adjust their dated preconceptions about gender sizing and styling. This model is reeeally close to being a perfect blend of style, size, function and value. I agree that the finish could be more durable and include some breakup of the polished look with some brushed accents. Also, more traditional band mounting/size would allow a lot of flexibility. I'd love to see them develop this model further as it's close to being perfect- just needs a few tweaks. Lastly, I agree with you once again about the logo placement as that would create more balance and symmetry . Thanks for the review of this one- I never would have noticed this model otherwise.

The GMS-5600SB-1DR arrived today and I was surprised by how thin/small it is. This version has a matte black bezel. It sits really well on my twig wrist. Casio finally made a G-Shock that was closer to the size of their classic F-91W with all the water resistance and shock protection of its bigger brothers. The strap is even more comfortable than the regular Squares.

In Germany we say "weder Fisch noch Fleisch" (neither fish nor meat) when it comes to things or characters that are indecisive between extremes. But maybe that´s part of the appeal creating a certain niche that might be limited yet still perfectly right for the right kind of watch person. I´m not a G-Shock guy, but this one I would at least consider.

I agree that the polished case is a bit disappointing. Under certain lighting conditions, if the silly thing is winking at people across the room... lol then it's a bit difficult to wear it with proper understatement, I might think. If the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak can make good use of brushed metal (perhaps even for this very reason) then why can't this Casio? It makes little sense. As for the smaller size, I love it, as my wrist is a mere 5.75" in size. This is about the largest size I can wear. Loved the vid! Cheers!

I have one and I think that the only reason it's ignored is due to the idiotic decision from Casio to brand it as a women's watch and they don't even do a good job at it because on one of their web sites they claim verbatim that "it's a watch for women who prefer mannish G-SHOCK styling". Wow, that's really a nicely sexist and derogatory comment neatly packaged in one phrase that manage to both hint that it's only suitable for a certain type of women that are not really into men and that the G-Shockness of the watch only goes as deep as the external design. How more hopefully clueless can a marketing department be?? It's an excellent G-Shock and exactly what the doctor prescribed to someone who likes the iconic DW-5600 but keep wishing it was a bit smaller. The negative display can be a PITA, thought.

2 year battery life is a major letdown.. had it had solar it would have been perfect. And I agree with your comments on how Casio (and most brands..) market watches. Big watches are for men, small pinky watches are for women, completely ignoring that not all men have big wrists and not all women have thin wrists and might not fall into the stereotypical color preferences. It's very outdated :(.

Damn the smartwatch hate is real. I don't understand. Watches today are pretty much just art pieces and that's why we love them. To say that smart watches are characterless, uninspired, pedestrian is just a watch lover being a snob. It is a tool watch. A few decades ago watch lovers scoffed at digital watches. Now we "love" them because of their simplicity and practicality. In a few decades, smart watches will also probably be loved by watch enthusiasts because it is the superior everyday tool watch. Embrace new technology TGV. It won't kill the mechanical watch industry.

I preordered this G-Shock before Casio released it, and kept it about six months before gifting it to my teenage daughter, who loves it. It is highly versatile, a perfect size, and eye-catching. Even though Casio improved the module, I feel the reverse display can still be challenging to read in low light. And, every time I picked it up, I expected it to be hefty because of the metal case, but it is light like any resin watch. Maybe Casio could put a stainless steel inner case on this model like on the GW-5000-1JF just to give it a little more mass?

whatever your weekday attire is, you too must go on hikes, walks, runs, bikerides in the weekend. you too also probably do some workout, sometimes do some gardening, or go to a spa or something. all of those scenarios, i use my g shock for. i have the baby g bgd 560, the normal black with positive display. essentially this same watch with the normal display and all black resin, perfect if you ask me, and probably costs a third of this gms. at 50-60usd, you wont really mind if you only use it once a week even. although i go terrain cycling at least 5times a week and i either use the baby g, or my ae1200, but i guess not everyone does. the good thing is, even this gms is still somewhat cheap, so you wont lose much.

I would hit that case with a wire wheel to give it a duller, brushed metal finish and then use it with a NATO/military watch band.

I was hopeful this would be available in a similar finish combination to the full size metal square, along with the engraving on the face. Something about the full polished, engraving-less case almost seems cheap compared to the mixed finishing on the full size model. I love my standard full metal, despite its weight and relative size to my 6.5" wrist, but would have snapped up a miniaturized version in a second had it been a bit closer to the original in design. The lack of solar is tough, too - that feature on the full size is a huge value add for me.

I agree completely. I feel the same way about the "minimalist' versions of the 5600 square. While the writing and labels are a bit gauche, they really add some visual intrigue to the watch. Without the writing the screen looks miniscule and the bezel looks huge.

Love Casio, and love G-Shock. I currently have a 5610 and the all black all steel model. This one is definitely a great addition to the steel line up (even given its negatives) especially as you point out for those looking for a more compact G-Shock. Hope you are very well my friend, great video as always 👍

Another great video, TGV! The idea for this video makes me wonder if an episode on watches we wish existed but don't could be a good topic. It seems makers are really responding to their customers lately. Imagine a reduced size Seiko Turtle?!

A great review TGV, a very constructive review. I like the more minimalist approach to the GMS, it seems to add a touch of elegance to what is a tool watch. I could not agree more with the comment on the lug spacing, a 16mm strap would look odd. I also think it would be good if they made a solar version but I guess that may add thickness and certainly add cost. I do not baby my watches so have to agree that finger prints and scratches are an inevitable part of life, I kid myself by saying it adds character after all watches are meant to be worn. It would be handy to have a few more wrists for more watches but that would make clothing a tad more difficult. I do like my G-Shock watches, somehow I always seem to want (but not always purchase) another one. I have a couple of the full metal ones including the full stainless (bling monster) with the positive display, I don't know what Casio have done but is a fair bit better than my old 5610 solar display. I recently go the new full metal red version (I call it the Chianti) with the negative display and that knocks spots off my resin 5600 negative display. They certainly have upped there game display wise.

TGV if you can find one, it's worth having a look at the G-7710. Wonderful G-Shock at about that mid size. I have around 6.25-6.5" wrist size and wears beautifully.

Given the strong “triple 10” G-Shock values, it’s a shame this watch only offers a 2 year battery.

Why they cannot make a brushed case? Why this silly bling? Also transparent face with white or black text as per original would be so cool. Maybe someone will do this mod.

If this model had a radio controlled tough solar module and a non-inverted LCD, it would sell like crazy. Pretty sure that's around the corner and coming soon too. Hopefully.

Hi, TGV! There is a version which has a brushed bezel, but it has a kind of white or transparent strap. Anyway, you could buy that one ("GM-S5600SK-7") and you'll just have to change the stainless steel armor between them. Let's see how it looks like! And, by the way, the other resulting watch could be for your wife! ;)
