Today we take a look at the latest addition to the Bluetooth family of G-Shock watches, the GWB5600 that will also be the Giveaway watch that one of you will be able to win when the channel reaches 20K subscribers. Since it uses basically the same module as the more expensive premium screwback brother GMWB5000 I used this opportunity to place them side by side and see how they compare, as I believe they are 2 entirely different watches intended for different things, despite having all the same functions. I hope you enjoy and don't forget to subscribe and click the little bell icon so you don't miss the giveaway!!

Thanks, surely I will! Have had a Citizen titanium for several years. OK, it's slightly lighter than steel, but that's about it! It is equally inconvenient in the summerheat AND it gets scratched very easily, way faster than the steel, I'd say. Not worth the extra $$$ IMO, but enjoy your titanium anyway.

My favorites so far are: GW-6900 (sadly not available in Europe), GMW-B5000 (just got lucky with a 20% discount for the stainless steel version, will arrive tomorrow) & MTG-B2000D-1AER.

I got the GWB5600BC as a daily beater after watching this video. The GMWB5000 and its resin band brother will stay in my display case. I think the GWB5600BC is the sweet spot g shock right now with the combination of the latest module incased with the resin bezel and bracelet means I don't care on scratching it up while also giving it an upgraded feel from my regular work G-5600E-1DR. Since watching your vids after my old GD-100 needed a new battery I have been bitten by the square bug and amassed a collection of 12 square g shocks! And this coming from a guy who never collected watches or even took notice of them. Not sure if I should thank you or not but keep up the good content as I look forward to your future g shock square reviews even if it's at the detriment of my back account.

I own the gold stainless steel version and I love it. So much so that I'm picking up the titanium cameo version shortly. I'm also thinking of making an offer to my dealer for the SS version as well as the Titanium cameo version. Well see if he takes $1800 for both. Oh, as far as the price goes, there was once a time when Rolex was an affordable tool watch and now look at them. I think GShock has reached the point in their storied history where they can successfully offer these types of luxury timepieces. I'm hooked on these SS and titanium square watches.

Fine Resin Composite Bracelet/Band is Resin outer part and steel/metal inside so it is as tough as the steel band but lighter. Just like what is in the GA-1000FC or GWA-1000FC. I have the GA-1000FC it feels good in my wrist. I think it's better than the steel band and more comfortable to wear. But I like the design of the composite band in the GA/GWA-1000FC than the band on GW-B5600

Hi Watch Geek. I went with the steel model. It was very hard to come by. And the pricing is very hefty for g shock. But........ IT'S SOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL ON THE WRIST!!!!!! ;) There are a couple of downsides though: the watch has slight problems with receiving the atomic signal. And after a certain time the received sign on the display disappears again,so its hard to tell if it worked. Another thing is the loudness of the alarm. I guess it's because of the steel casing,that the alarm is too silent to really make an affect. These two issues bug me about the new square g-shock. Frank

Nice video! To me a g-shock watch will always be about being cheap & sturdy. The steel version is starting to go away from that a little too much for me. If you care too much about dings and scratches it's not really a tool watch anymore. Same as a Rolex sub isn't a dive watch. That depends a lot on your budget as well of course.

Would you mind comparing the visibility of the display of GW-B5600BC-1B vs GW-M5610BC-1? Are the same in terms of visibility? Or does the blue background of the GW-B5600 help make the display "pop" more?

@dasdos002 5 жыл бұрын

I own a GBA 800 and the visibility of the digits on that watch are far more visible than on the 5610 BC. Mostly, due to the fact that the background on the BC is black and the background on the GBA is blue. I feel like this makes the difference, but that is the only live comparisons I have. Do you have more negative watches (I know you are not a fan of them) to compare with in terms of angles, lighting and visibility?

@dasdos002 5 жыл бұрын

Ok. Thanks for letting me know. I bought my GBA first. I started to enjoy the negative display so much that I really got into them. When I saw the 5610 I knew I had to have it. I read the reviews saying it’s hard to read but I ignored them cause I could read the GBA just fine. When I got the 5610 I was really disappointed. I think it needs to be more commonly understood there is quite the difference between the negative displays. Which was annoying to realize after buying the watch. I’ll still wear it. But hopefully this watch fixes the problem.

The battery level is visible on the phone in the app when you pair that watch

Actually, I have both of them as of now, these exact same models, also have created an unofficial BLE sync app for KaiOS 2.5.x for them, called RCVD (see the announcement on BananaHackers forum). The GMW-5000D has springbar-based bracelet making link adjustment much easier with nothing but a smartphone SIM pin. The screwback also looks fantastic and eliminates one more point of weakness (those tiny bolts). I don't know how I will like the GMB-2100BD that will come to me in a month, but among pure-digital models, if I were to only leave a single G-Shock in my collection, it would be the GMW. At least until I can afford the MRG.

Awesome review mate! Sure cleared up the differences but I'm sure theres still someone out there who wants to know how badly the all metal G gets scratched? I can't get over the mindset of an average Ahole! I mean how can you even see the all metal G to be a beater watch? It's a collector's item to be worn and cared for like a luxury watch! It feels like a luxury watch and looks like a luxury watch. You cant fix your bike or do gardening or change a tyre on the car with the all metal G as it WILL GET SCRATCHED!

I am watching this with my gw5000 on my wrist :) hesitated a while but imho this is the king of squares Gs... I have tried the combi bracelet with metal and resin. Great quality and feel. Ended up selling it though as the end links added a lot of length to the watch (almost 60mm).
