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.

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.

It's very outdated :(.

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.

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?

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.

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.

Excellent point, the pay off for having EL backlight I guess. I am sure they are working on more energy efficient solutions. Thank you for sharing that very valid point. Best regards TGV

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.

Will always love the shape of the square g shocks, and how can you beat the value and utility of the 5600D.

So true. Ultimate utility!!! Well said, thank you Jacob, Best regards, TGV

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.

I LOVE the size but, like you, I wish the "Casio" text was at the top and the bezel had a brushed finish. Great review of a good looking watch!

I've got pretty big wrists at 7 and a quarter inches, but I prefer smaller watches. I think this might be my perfect G-Shock. I'll have to get one at some point

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! ;)
