Pulled my G-Shock DW-5600BB out of its tin, and pulled up this tutorial right after that. Great tutorial!

[@joehesketh7412]

I had lost my manual and was going wacko trying to reset my watch for returning to standard time. Went on line looking for a manual and saw this video which I watched from beginning to end and had my watch reset in no time. I also learned several things I could do with the watch that I have owned for several years but was unaware of. Great tutorial and easy to follow.

[@carlbaumeister3439]

Wow -- absolutely outstanding! Very clearly explained. I used to have a G-Shock similar to this "back in the day," late 80s, but misplaced it in Japan when I was working there. My wife bought me another one Christmas of 2018, and I've been using it, but a lot of these functions have changed somewhat since I had one, and I couldn't figure out a few things. Also, there are cool functions I never ever knew about until watching this video. Thanks!

[@whatsonthewrist]

Marin, you're the go to person for watch tutorials for sure! In all sincerity, if I still had a G-Shock I would turn to you. 😁👏

[@WatchGeek]

+whatsonthewrist thanks 😊

[@a1lrd985]

Thanks for all your help!

[@Olm9]

Agreed!

[@ricardodiaz6187]

Greetings from 2023. Great tutorial; thank you. I just purchased a DW5600 Fox Fire, so my manual booklet is in Japanese. I’m saving your video. Many thanks again!

[@ratbrain7743]

I just got a casio 3229. The main reason I went with it was for the count down alarm. If the watch isn't held up to my ear. It can't be heard. Same with the hourly beep. I've been using Casio watches for 35 years. They are usually great watches. Maybe I got a lemon. Glad I got it at walmart for an easy return

[@daletaylorjr.4786]

Thanks! I just picked up a 5600 Rasta and the auto reset was on and going off every 23min. Lol. Drove me and my wife crazy on a road trip for 9 hours. Lol. Watches your vid at the hotel. All is well now.

[@WatchGeek]

Haha I'm glad I brought piece 😀👍

[@NEONNOONE]

[@WatchGeek]

Haha thanks 😊 👍

[@pirhala]

Thank you so much!! You are very knowledgeable and make the explanations very clear. I have the DW-5600e and I love the simplicity of it. This is also my first G-shock. I keep looking at the other models but find myself coming back to the one I have. Thanks again 👍🏻

[@yasinahmed6157]

Thank you! I just purchased the G-Shock DW5600MW-7. It is basically an updated white version of this watch, and appears to have exactly the same movement.

[@algray8389]

Thanks so much. Very easy and quick. I just got a G-shock and it sat on my desk for a week. I would need a magnifying glass for the user guide.

[@slappfisk5696]

[@WatchGeek]

Congrats on a new watch

[@muhammadwitjaksono3584]

Nice and detail review. I also prefer to this module because I can see current time in timer or stopwatch mode. Also the auto repeat function is very handy for timing hydration period during physical exercise.

[@WatchGeek]

+MUHAMMAD WITJAKSONO the auto repeat is one of my favorite functions 👍

[@vaibhavkulkarni2371]

Nicely explained. good watch.

[@WatchGeek]

+vaibhav kulkarni thanks

[@alanladdseinekatze859]

Great channel here, thanks so much for your effort! And, until now, I have not been aware of the fact of 24h being referred to as 'military time' in the US of A! Since being a german resident, it is the go to setting for hours here, since the 24h system is standard on European mainland, same as the metric system.

[@-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-...]

got this watch today and used this video to setup! thanks!!!!

[@WatchGeek]

Congrats and I'm glad I helped

Thanks for the quick reply I have a m5610BB

[@abujasm2223]

Nice tutorial, video and watch. great as always. thanks!

[@WatchGeek]

+Abujas!m thanks for the kind words

[@brians91]

Great video, it made it easy to understand and learn not so obvious features. I love this watch for how simple it is, not a fan of the 100,000 feature watches and their overly aggressive look.

[@bryanstone654]

Hi thanks for the great video. So is it correct that the GW 5600E does not have a mute feature such as would be found on the GD 350 for example? Thanks.

[@Pavilions2]

Hi, I'm having an issue with my 5610, it's just won't go to H indicator I don't know why, even though I left it in the sun for almost 4 hours, but still no progress it's still in the M indicator.

[@WatchGeek]

M is pretty wide range of battery level, just keep doing it a couple more days and wear it normally

[@Pavilions2]

Thanks will do.

[@AbhishekSingh-fd1ss]

Great tutorial , thanks

[@theafricanjumbee4057]

Was very helpful. Thanks very much

[@jasonsexton2252]

Fascinating, my new 5600e-1v does the mode switch back to time after modifying a mode as well

[@Dewabarasunderan]

Super helpful! Thank you!😊

[@aryawasista653]

you did a good job man!

[@charliev9455]

2020 aint that bad, at least i found a really good tutorial. 10/10

[@kalekalekale]

Great vid. I've had a military 5600 for like 10 years and never knew what that star symbol meant. I too, like the all you need nothing you don't. What I would change though is for the alarm, if you could specify which days of the week it's on. Eg: 2-6 is M-F, or 7-1 is Sat-Sunday. I would also like it if after you press the backlight button, any other button press kept the light on.

[@mannymad74]

S2

[@finney861]

What does S2 mean?

[@jannaZX]

Good work Mr Geek

[@Crazytesseract]

Casio may make your videos their official Video manual! I liked how detailed it is because I had read the manual thoroughly many years back.

[@northeastlower]

Excellent Tutorial ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Thank you so much!!

[@CallmeDaBreeze1971]

Just got my DW5600E today, setting it up as I watch this.

[@WatchGeek]

Congrats, it's a great Watch, one of the best for the money, but be careful, G-Shocks tend to become addictive 😄

[@CallmeDaBreeze1971]

@@WatchGeek Yes, I have the GD400 as well.

[@uraichur]

Very helpful. Thank you!

[@dusank774]

Relaxing video. Watching with DW5000-1JF on my wrist, which is appropriate :) These G Shocks are timeless. I think there's only one better and that would be the DW5600C with 691 module and CR2320 battery. Find these with original! bezel is becoming very difficult. Time displayed in all modes is a must. I personally don't care about world time in newer modules (3159).

[@WatchGeek]

+Dušan Kyselica totally agree 👍

[@yasinahmed6157]

Just bought mine today and was Hella confused thanks G🙏

[@peacebridge9424]

Thank you. Great video

[@williamgreeter1855]

I got the 3229 module and I have 4 others in my collection as well

[@megacab]

Excellent sir, thank you

[@alexkastano96]

tnks dude, this thing is so simple so i figured it out on my own,but that "flashy" sign was a mystery to me,in a beginning i thought it's "battery run out soon" sign and had no idea you can turn it on or off )))

[@branislavradojevic339]

Good review ....this is (SL) my favorit g in my colection...i'ts very , very good watch ! Thanks

[@WatchGeek]

+Branislav Radojevic yup the SL is very good, my favorite GShock and I think it can outlast any watch out there

[@nailbomb3]

I've purchased two of these back to back with 3229s and both have super weak alarm and timer chimes. Is there a way I can fix that ?

[@WatchGeek]

Nope, solar watches tend to be a bit quieter than regular battery operated models

[@dennisokada9287]

Very helpful! Now I know why my alarm wasn’t beeping at all ☺️

[@jalilmadougou-sariki5517]

Helped me a lot thanks

[@weedXD38]

GOOD morning!!! Another nice Casio, Thank FOR SHARING!!! HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!! :-) :-)

I love the yearly alarm. Now i never will forget the birthday of my wife. 😁😁

[@user-qt5ps3oz1k]

Thank you for your time ☺️. Is button A slightly more "in" than other buttons?

[@thadeucassin4782]

Yes, it is

[@THECARSHOWFEED]

I have the model gm5600b-1 known as “3229” I’m wondering.... does this watch have automatic light feature?

[@labalbi]

I have a 5610 with module 3329 , how can I mute the buttons sound ? Thanks

[@johncasey5819]

Is there a way to turn the beeping off when you push the buttons to cycle through the functions?

[@dimi7055]

Superb!

[@19luX92]

I've just got mine dw 5600 so thank you, you sexy beast! :)

[@MichaelsExplorations]

What does "DI" on my DW-5600HR-1DR mean?

[@gujachiburdanidze441]

Thanks you, its was useful

[@benl6285]

Thankyou very much. 👍

[@joshvargas7508]

Great tutorial! I have a question, how do I change my watch from PM to AM? I know how to change it to military time with this video but I’m not sure how to change it from PM to AM. It’s morning but my watch says PM? Any help?

[@RCFlyBoy314]

Advance the hours until you get into the next correct hour. 9pm, 10pm, 11pm ------- > 9am

I have a Dw 5600 BB. It has the 3229 module. The stated battery life is 2 years, which is surprising considering the original dw5600 lasts around 10 years. Do you know what's the real difference between newer modules and the original ones? The same goes for other fashion oriented gshocks that aren't solar. Great channel btw, the most useful !

[@jkv9461]

Thx, buddy!
