Thanks for sharing!

Agreed. Lots of features in a small durable package. Have a great week!

Agreed, these are impressive watches.

Battery will probably last another decade if you keep it in the light.

Is the strap not getting brittle??

@@yorusuyasoul69420 no its not, actually the old version has thicker strap. I use it everyday at work washing dishes etc. I am actually trying to abuse this watch since I got the new version but this never gives up lol.

@@drbobsnightmare2521yep, I have a 2007 GW-002E, maybe one of the first Tough Solars (Atomic 5) and the battery is still going fine after 17 years!

Agreed! The 5610u is an outstanding value. I'm putting together a Casio trifecta with the 5610u, Pathfinder, 800, and 1200 for comparison. Thank you for watching (no pun intended but its funny anyway!)

@@Realidealgear lol, I was gonna end my comment by saying "thanks for taking the time" but opted for "posting" instead bc I thought it was too unintentionally punny! Thanks for replying. Man, I have no irons in the fire, but srsly: get a GW5000U. Yes, it cost 2x as much as the 5600u, everything is just more premium; the band is softer & more supple, I really like the polished SS laser etched caseback and steel core - makes it feel like a proper watch with a bit of heft. But, sort of a double edged blade: I still rock the OG 5600E when I'm going do be out in "it" bc I wanna keep the GW5000 'nice'-ish for daily wear. 🤷🏼 🤔 Sorta defeats the purpose. The 5610U is a happy medium I suppose. That and I really like the vintage red line encircling the face. Matter of fact, I'm navigating over to amzn to look for a deal I think. Man can't have too many G-shock squares. If that's wrong, I don't wanna be right.

@@Realidealgear I'll be watching for the trifecta comp vid, great idea 👍

100% agree.

Excellent ideas. I'm not concerned as much about the crystal. I just finished a torture test on the F200 and was surprised to see how thick the crystal was. One could PolyWatch polish the heck out of a crystal and not worry about making the crystal too thin.

That it is....the legend of all Casios.

Agreed!

Thank you for the compliment and the content suggestion.

This version of the square seems to be as bullet proof as you can get and the updates are excellent. I prefer this light to the EL on the earlier model. The light to some, might appear to be an EL...excellent LED coverage. Have a great Easter weekend.

Thanks for watching! I've moved toward evaluating what I regularly use...and the W800H is now my go to...for now. I'll see how long it lasts because the G-Shock have a well established durability history.

Great idea. The factory strap works for me but my wife won't wear it because of the factory strap on her smaller circumference wrist...I'll see if your idea helps.

The titanium pathfinder (slim model) is tough as nails. I gave my to my youngest son. Going on 20 years...same battery.

@@Realidealgear I checked the model # on my Pathfinder: PAW-1300T with a 3070 “Triple Sensor”. It really is a solid watch…I should give it some wrist-time! I’ve just been using it to set my other watches because it gets the radio time-hack every night.

I had a PAW 2000T. I was going to get another one, before I bought the one I have now (PRW 6600Y). I'd buy it again in a heartbeat. Solid watches. Thanks for sharing.

Is that the USAF, what a great idea, the RAF should issue G-Shocks. I bought a DW-5200 in 1984 just before I joined the Royal Air Force (RAF) and its still going strong on only its 3rd battery. THE DW-5600 are issued by NASA, I have heard.

Fortunately, the strap contours well to my wrist. A legend of a watch.

Excellent memory! Tough as nails and a great fitting watch as well. Have a good week.

Thanks. All three are excellent watches. Take care.

There's no denying the G-shock toughness. I don't think the other models from which the G-shocks are derived are significantly vulnerable to what most people would consider rough use. I like the Rangeman model a lot. I have too many Casios! Time to start giving them away.

Glad you like it. I have them and both knife, watch (and phone, wallet) are my core EDC.

Excellent comment. I'm a fan of the 5610u....compact, full of great features, awesome light.

Right on!

Excellent idea.

Agreed! Casio absolutely nailed the design of the case and strap. Have a great week

I have a 6.25 wrist I hope it fits good when I get it

I live in Western Montana, USA. We are emerging from winter into spring. The mountains don't always cooperate with spring weather. Have a great weekend and thank you for watching.

Thanks for watching. Have a great week!

A great feature...sometimes it's annoying when relaxing in a darken room/theater, etc. Overall, I like it.

You’re very welcome. I’ve actually worn it more now than when the video was made. I may have had a little stick-it-to-the-square attitude.

Its a great contour to the wrist.

I have both watches and he is correct 5610 is way more comfortable than my Iwatch

My understanding is that there's no difference in size but that the suffixes denote the market to which a watch is shipped. (ER = Europe; J= Japan)...and that can affect warranty depending on the owner's location ("J" model not purchased in Japan).

I have a WSD F20. Loved it for the activity sensor and text alerts...then I realized I didn't need an activity sensor or notifications/interruptions. The Pathfinder PRW6600Y is where I've landed. I like larger watches because of the larger display/dials. I have accepted the fact that being less connected allows me to be more in tune with what I'm doing at the time. I will investigate the GBD-200...might be another modern, updated sweet spot for the square. Thanks for the input.

I had to decide between the GBD 200 and the 5610u. Glad I choose the second watch. I love it.

If you want a more dressy watch where the digital display is not that important, CasiOak. If you're looking for a more work oriented watch and the digital display is more important, Square (I'd also recommend the tough solar and atomic time keeping...low maintenance and high accuracy). I've pasted my review on the CasiOak discussing the different take this watch has on G-Shock style watches. I'd go square if you don't already have one. CasiOak a close second because it's a little more focused on aesthetics than on function. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/lbyHfNSJsr_WYKM.html

@@Realidealgear picked up the 5610u today mate! I'm a carpet fitter so I knock my arms about alot plus the tough backings of carpet can do potential damage to a normal watch. Thoroughly impressed with it and it looks alot better in the flesh than what it does online!

It's a fantastic, tough-as-nails watch. Another 5610u square finds a home! Have a great week.

It's a collection with many options.

I have both of them. Positive and negative display. Negative just looks cooler. Positive is more functional. Just my opinion.

@@CaptainLeftHook now I have them both too. Great Casio legendary watches 👌

@@inSaNe_44 I agree. They're classics.

I've got good and bad news: there are 8 different models with this module...

I like the formula for that model. Thanks for sharing.

And how many times more expensive?

You're welcome and I agree on the volume of the alarm. With the adjustments for light duration, maybe they could have a H/L volume for alarm. Seems like a simple resistor setting.

That’s a good idea! I suspect that the thick case/back plate and neoprene innards cause the mouse-squeak alarm.

I returned the watch to the dealer. I didn't hear the alarm at all. they are useless as an alarm clock.

I agree, this model casio has a low volume alarm. I suppose that could be useful but most of the time I need an audible alarm to be loud enough to catch my attention.

I appreciate that! Trying to keep things real. Take care!

Thank you, I was fortunate! I love that setup. I will be doing that again.

It's the GADA poster child!

Casio's on the way. Any preferences? God's done all the work, I'm the clay still being molded. Blessings to you as well.

around 18-19cm or 7.25"

It has a 43mm wide case. It's a typical dive watch width. I would think so.

ok, thanks for your answer. Greetings from Poland

Great to hear from you and thanks for watching!

I love Casio's. My past Pathfinders went through a strap/bracelet and the case/modules kept chugging along. Seemingly indestructible! Thanks for your input.

There is a version with MIP display and heart rate sensor on the way..

@@stfuplsok The grammer police r in town

Excellent idea! All my Casio's have the same interval between holes...I might make one of the holes that fits snug, a little bigger and see if that creates a sweet spot for adjustments. Thank you for watching! (it's still funny to to say that!)

Lol 😂 🤣

It's a standard bearer for a reason.

Best G-Shock for the money, because it includes solar charging and MB6. Casio has all sorts of watches with these features, look for Waveceptor, Edifice, Lineage and Oceanus lines. I bet you can safely split wood with those on too.

I've always been hesitant of negative displays because the contrast doesn't seem high enough for my tired eyes. It's great to have backups!

@@Realidealgearhad a negative display and never got used to it. I ended up giving it away. Went back to my GWM-5610 positive display.

Yes. The negative displayodels look cool to observers, but they simply are not readable when outside in the sun. Hence, you have a neat, quirky plastic bracelet. My GW5000U-1JF with the upgraded positive LCD is simply outstanding and easy to view from any angle, any light (or dark) conditions.

@@stfuplsok 🤭

I like that desciptor.

Good to know. Thank you for watching.

Where you can buy that?

@@Luebke2773 screen protectors, Amazon or eBay. Just search for G-SHOCK 5610 or 5600 screen protectors.

@@Luebke2773Amazon & eBay both carry watch protectors.

It’s an often worn Casio…wearing it right now. Thank you for watching. Have a great week.

Absolutely...tough as nails.

Thank you and I appreciate the concern over my health. Truly. One gets used to the cool weather living in Montana. If I may, my most valuable thing in my life if the perfect word of God the Bible...and His saving grace towards me, someone completely underserving and entirely rebellious on my own. (Romans 1) Thank you so much for watching this video! Your input is valuable to me.

God bless you Sir ! Take care! Frum România, I wish you all the best things to happen to you and your love ones !
