I have a GW-5610U, and I absolutely love it as my everyday watch.
i still prefer how it looks over other recommendations. I love the red line
I also just bought my 3rd. I had bought the GW5000U as my “ultimate” G Shock. But then I went even further and bought the GMWB5000 the full metal square. Last month I bought the 1/2 metal G Shock. It is like a combination of both watches. I think I might have a problem. 🤭
Same here.
2 x GMW-B5000, silver for me, red for the woman.
And a GW-5000U on combi bracelet.
(And a couple of Seiko’s and Citizen watches.)

@@thumperjdm I am happy to see I am not the only one😉. Luckily my wife has not noticed how much they cost. They look like a $50 watch. 🤭

Welcome to the G-SHOCK Addiction Club.
The screw back cases are really nice on the squares. I have the 35th Anniversary Origin Gold DW5035D1B modeled after the 1983 DW-5000C-1B with the gold text on the bezel. Beautiful watch and mich more premium feeling with the stainless core.
I understand the argument about the "premium" feeling of the screwback, but I still prefer the smaller profile of the 5610. On the other hand, I'm completely fine with the white LED backlight.
Yes, the 5610u is a great watch when you don’t even notice you are wearing it.
For almost the opposite reason, with the 5000u (though not nearly as bulky as the all metal ones) one enjoys it because it has just enough noticeable heft to feel its stealthy quality.
@@jemandthemystery😂
I recently got my GW5000U. I have the 5610U and the full metal 5000 but the 5000U does have its unique charm.
Thanks for this, I feel like another square.
Interesting. I have the same 3 G-Shock squares. I use them all but the 5000u gets the majority of wrist time.
Having the time displayed in the timer and stopwatch functions are very useful. It is hard to wear watches without it.
I would love to have an MIP display Square but without the smart/sportswatch gimmicks.
If it ever comes to be, I will buy it in a blink of an eye.
Absolutely and with a regular size like the others.
@@jdejesyou can buy a GBD200 and use it without connecting to Bluetooth
@@PradeepsPointofView had one but it was still too big for my wrist so I sold it. Strap too long and had excess sticking out and personally don’t like that in my watches.
But what if i’m 45 years old and still might one day become a mountain climbing, scuba diver in the special forces who also runs marathons and has heart issues? Whatbthen?

Don't forget astronaut
I only have one G. You guessed it, the gw5000u. Totally happy, and no desire for any more.
The most correct header I have seen in a while on a UA-cam video, I recently found the 1st watch I ever bought for myself back in the late 80's, it was a Casio digital 50m watch & looked just like that one, I used it as a daily wear for years & as it was waterproof so I rarely took it off. Skip ahead a few decades & I was going through an old junk draw recently, you all know the one lol, & found this sad battered looking little lump of black plastic, the band had rotted away & it looked pretty rough. I was about to bin it when I was overcome with a bout of nostalgia so opened it up to see if I could just replace the battery, amazingly I had one & blow me if the little Casio didn't come back to life, I now have it hung beside my computer desk as an easy time/date check & a reminder of a never say die watch. Well that's it, I thought people here might be interested in my musings on my classic casio.
I love my GW5000U. JDM are the best models made. My only gripe is the size of the buttons - so tiny it's ridiculous.
The GW5000U is fantastic. Ive been collecting for many years from G-shock to higher end Swiss and at least in my case, if I could only have one watch under 1k for life, the GW5000 would be it,
That's good to know, thanks for sharing that. I'm thinking of just skipping the automatic rabbit hole and just get this G-Shock GW-5000U-1jf.
They are all superb g shocks. I have a GXW56 with positive screen and gold bullbars. Fantastic watch. Solar too. 👍🇬🇧
LED is more reliable and long lasting. Also needs less energy. That is why Casio use it now. There are YT videos about it...
My GW-5000U is my favorite square. I got one as soon as they came out and it’s pretty perfect. But could you imagine a GW-5000U with titanium case and sapphire crystal? It would be absolute perfection. Come on Casio make it happen! Can’t wait for the long term review.
Exactly what I've been saying I want. In fact, do that with the red line around the clock like on the 5610. That would be my ideal G-Shock.
Yes but Casio purposefully gimp these models to push people toward their full steel/MRG line. They won't give the consumer what they want, they're professionals at dodging perfection.
G-Shocks ARE addictive..I now have so many, I’ve stopped counting!!
I totally agree...I have had up to ten G-Shocks at any one time including the G9000 Mudman, the GW6900, the Gulfman, the Riseman and three Casioaks and in truth, I am now down to 8, which includes my new GW5000u and I find myself really liking it the most (I also have the GW5610u, which I really like too and which has the same module as the DW5000u!). Something about the weight, the strap's softness and the face being so much more elegant looking...Just love it. I am now contemplating selling off some of the other Gs, which kinda makes me feel a bit sad but maybe I just need the One to Rule Them All? I may even be turning into a 'normal' person ?? 😁😁
I have 4, but the square has an emotional attachment. For a 6.5" wrist bigger Gs, including MTG can look borderline 'silly', but the square wins.
I bought this model a year and a half ago, beeing my first g-shock ever, and it's excellent..
*of course I bought a few more since then...
I agree ! I have a GW 5000 that is the earlier model and do love the premium feel of the strap . It is quite noticeable if you wear a regular square even if it's a screwback. The fact that it's also maintenance-free is a big plus, but i to do like the anniversary squares with the simple 1545 and 3421 modules! I also still use a 5600c 'speed' watch that is from 1988 and also a screwback but much less refined than the current ones.
I'm happy with the GMW5610u & GW6900. Both are excellent watches. For the meantime de GW5000u its a bit pricy. I like the screw back case. I'll be on the look out for a discount. Regards.
I vote for the GW-S5600U-1JF. Has the features you mention plus very light weight. I have mine on a titanium aftermarket bracelet.
Good mini review Watch Geek. All good points. To paraphrase Johnny Cash (although he was talking about Martin guitars): “ I feel safe with a G-Shock square”. So, I ended up with 3 of them for different occasions. The GW 5000u as the “everything watch”; the 5610u as the “Happy Beater” with its bright, Bauhausian design touches. It is also super light so a great watch for training, outdoor and messy stuff. Finally there’s the GMW B5000 full black metal with the negative, STN display. Understated dress watch for social or more formal occasions. That way, I never have to leave “G-Shock world” - or even the operational muscle memory familiarity of the same 3495 module in each of them. The majority wrist time winner would be the GW 5000u though. Great watch if you “get” it.
Maybe I (and my wallet) are fortunate in that the luxury automatic watch market holds no hypnotic appeal to me as it strangely does for many. In fact, with just my G-Shocks I may own too many with these three but at least it’s a guilt-free, affordable pleasure.
I just use a dw5600e for all occasions because I couldn't care less about what people think regarding what I wear on my wrist 😂
Good comment. I love G-Shocks, although I only have one, a Rangrman GW-9400-1 which I love and use most of the time. I'm thinking about getting the 5000U as a more discrete, less bulky and a low profile watch I can wear anywhere. The steel body with the screw down case and steel lugs and softer rubber is what will be the deciding factor for me.
@@adsagp A good choice. I used to own a big G Shock too (in my case, a Mudmaster). I find the 'u' series squares much more practical while having all the functionality I need in a watch. They also will fit with long sleeves better too. :-)
I'm happy with my GWM 5610U.
I’m happy with my GWM 5610u AND my GW 5000u :-)
Me tooo !
My GW-9400 told me I don't need the GW-5000U.
@@ami5975 Well, those pesky GW-9400’s WOULD say that, wouldn’t they... :-)
@@jemandthemystery'd rather say Robust.. I own both 9400 and 5610
I picked one up last year. I've since sold three of my other G-Shocks. Kinda speaks for itself.
I've got the 5610. This 5000U is really nice. I'd like one.
Watch Geek, A good companion video to this one would be your review from Oct 25, 2017 where you compared the GW-5000, the GW-M5610, and the GW-S5600. In your words, you compared the GW-5000 to the Porsche 911 Turbo, the GW-S5600 to the Porsche 911 GT2RS, and the GW-M5610 to the Porsche 911 GT. Those were good analogies.
Simply the best G-SHOCK. I love mine....I don't need any others!!!
The GW-5000U does seem like the ideal square: perfect colorway and execution and features and construction, without the all-metal case/bezel distractions of recent years.
I have 4 squares, none as exotic as these, however all are special examples for me and I do always favor the solar + MB6 when possible. The irony of owning a non-MB6 model is that they effectively keep worse time than a simple, cheap mechanical.
Why do I say that? Because a mechanical will stop, and you set the time when you wear it next month, and that's that, whereas a cheap quartz is off by some minutes after several months and always requires a sequence of button pushing to get it back on correct time.
I bought my son one of the Bluetooth squares a few years ago and it's great, but no one actually gives a shit about Bluetooth or goes into their phone for settings unless forced to. I think it's a shame the BT models do not also have MB6.
That's strange. The GWB5600 models have MB6 and Bluetooth. Are there more Bluetooth squares than those?
A MB6 emulator app makes MB6 watch time sync anywhere in the world that you can get internet connection.
I often use the Android app to quickly change things like alarms and timer settings, and set world time cities. It's handy when various sporting events are happening around the world.
About mechanical/automatic watches. I have automatic and when I go to sleep I leave it in box in normal position, like that it loses 1 sec per day. And when I put it on side with crown up then it gains few sec, when I put it on side with crown down then loses few sec. Doing that I can always keep precise time in seconds and I never need to manually adjust time anymore, means it will never stop working.
@@NaviNavi-1uu8tg Hmm, "never?" I think you mean until it needs adjustment/cleaning/repair. I have several mechanical watches. In a sense, they are more convenient than quartz watches because there's no battery needing replacement. One of my favorite quartz watches sits unused because I keep forgetting to buy a battery for it.
@@thenexthobbyMechanical Darwil Watch from my grandfather which he got in 1970. He has it on hand every day, he was forest worker and doing farming, imagine stress this watch endured. Never, opened and serviced. Still works perfectly today. You hear from manufacturers how they need to be “cleaned” and serviced every 4-5 years, no they don’t, thay say it just to take your money. Also I know some other people who have watches from 1980 which where never opened, they work like brand new ones.
No, a non-MB6 G Shock does *not* keep worse time than a cheap mechanical. Being a digital quartz it obviously keeps better, more accurate, time than any mechanical.
Nice video! You did a great job in presenting the GW-5000u-1, this would be an awesome watch to get. I'm seriously contemplating getting this one as I would be a nice and much slimmer profile than my current Rangeman GW-9400-1. I appreciate the extra quality with the screw-down DLC back case and the more subtle/softer rubber and has all the minimum features I would want from a G-Shock.
I have 6 GSHOCKs now, and from "Squares" I have GW B5600 - Bluetooth, MultiBand, Tough Solar, WT, Timer set to seconds, 5 alarms AND 5 REMINDERS! AND composite bracelet!
But daily I use GBD H1000...
My only watch is g640wb-1bef, and it's the best watch ever, small and elegant. Not a fan of bulky watches. It's a nod to vintage Casio, but is a completely new watch. And orange lit numerals on black background are a chefs kiss, reminds me of those vintage texas instruments calculators LEDs like TI-30 which I used to have, it's a delight to look at.
Always wanted to have a G-Shock and last week in a mall I saw the 40th anniversary limited edition DW5040 which looks nearly identical to the very first G-Shock. Although it’s a bit over priced for it’s functions nowadays, I bought it anyway as my first G-Shock because of its reminiscence to the original one. Really love all the extra details like the champagne sunburst dial, the gold plated inner case, the recrystallised screw back, buckle and ring. Just one issue, its 40th anniversary logo on the screw back is a bit different from other anniversary editions like 25th, 35th and so on. It is not embossed and looks like painted or laser engraved. If it is painted, I don’t wanna ruin the paint in a few months with my sweat because i live in a hot dusty country.
Las estrellas de 5 puntas que tiene grabadas pueden ser satánicas siempre hay alguna invertida
Miss my old gw5000. This is the next collection to look for
There’s also the GW-B5600. It has all of these functions and more; Bluetooth! And the combie bracelet.
Its almost perfect if not for the negative screen though
Well the GW-M5600/5610BC also had a combi. The GW-B5600BC-1 has positive display and combi.
Why would anyone want Bluetooth on their watch?
@@folksurvivalFor me, i don’t live near the zones or towers that the watch adjust its time to. So if i want to adjust the time, i simply press one button from the watch and it connects to my phone’s bluetooth and automatically corrects the time, location, day, date, month and everything. That’s why its more convenient to have bluetooth than the multi band function, that’s without mentioning the other functions that you can do from your phone into your watch.
I have the GW5000 and the GW5000U and I prefer the 5000 mostly due to the EL backlight.
I've had GW-5610U for 1,5 years, my only gshock and I don't need another, it's perfect for me. I don't like BT connectivity, I find radio controlled time more "fascinating" :D + It's lightweight and cheap enough so I'm not so afraid of damaging it.
Atomic, I do not want to connect to my phone - it leads to the eveil incarnate - the smart watch. I want the 5000U
@Baruch-Hashem Ikr, smartwatches are mainly for soulless losers who lack class, integrity, and taste.
I've already encountered one such loser on this comments section, who basically thinks we should all ditch real watches and buy overrated smartwatches.
Great review! It's nice to have a few that represent the evolution of squares! Tempted to get the H5600 for that MIP display.
I heard that they changed from Electro-Luminecent Backlighting to LED, because E.L wears out over use. It becomes dimmer and dimmer, until eventually it stops lighting up. But I can't confirm that, yet.
I never understood why people go with the gw5000u over the gmwb5000. Because the gwmb5000 is far superior in every aspect. Not only it’s a screw back as well but it has a stn display and the lug pin for the strap is not a flimsy pin like the 5000u but it’s like a thick pole lol that you could never break. And the modular is also superior and did I mention about the Bluetooth? I know some people don’t like but then my answer is to that is then you don’t have to use it and can easily will switch to using multiband 6. And the bezel is black metal which will never deform over the years of using it. I hope you guys will reply and tell me what your thoughts and excuses are :)
I agree that gmw-b5000g-1 (half metal, black bezel, positive display) is much better than GW5000U, but where to get it..? :(
I just got the gw-m5610-1er this week and do like it a lot, mostly thanks to the new module. I have had my DW6900-1 for 4 years now (after seeing your review on it, I bought one from a store in Japan) and it's still my favorite g shocks ever. However, now that I am seeing your video on this one... I might want to try it out. It's like an end-game g shock that is still affordable. Perhaps putting it on a black metal bracelet will be cool. Thanks for another great video!
Recently got my G5600UE, and I am loving it!
Got mine on a Combi and use it everyday. Amazing.
Nothing beats the OG 5600
I first owned the gw5610u, but i didn't like it because its 2-3 mm smaller than the dw5600E which I got after, and then I got in love with the screw down case back, which is something that will make it last for a whole life, because it's all metal in the case, not resin, if the bezel and straps brakes, you change them without any problems of breaking the case, and will always be better in water resist because it doesn't have screws right to the resin case that by time you must change to put new batteries or new O ring etc, its just way better because you can open the watch indefinitely because its not gonna brake, but you can only open a few times the resin case of the 5610/5600 before it loses water resist because the screws doesn't close de case back well, in many aspects, its way better a full metal case like the GW5000u, the problem is the price, but I my opinion it's worth it
Thank you for making the review for this model I adore il.😃
Love my U. Have it in an oem combi and some bull bars. The only square I never sold. Keep up the great work!
Same here.
Gen2 combi, might put on some bull bars..
Even the wife likes it.
Hello I have the GW-M5610U which have the same module, the only difference the case isn't stainless steel screwed back. But I love the 80-90's look that it show with the red label and the color text. I change the rubber bezel for a metal one, metal adapters and green fabric strap so for me and in summer time it's super confortable and I have a bezel that will last the same as the watch!
It was really difficult choose between it and the GW-5000U!
I really need that
Fantastic Mod on that “Spike Lee” version. Simple and effective.
G-Shock should have followed your lead ! 😃👍🏼
Thanks for sharing!
I live in Belgium and in winter the solar battery drains every year, there’s not enough sun per day between October and March… very annoying
Hmm, I live in London and own quite a few G-Shock solars. Rarely have a problem with them losing charge over winter..
Why do I need screw back when it’s lion charging - never open for a battery change or not
Great upload, thank you and this is the next one on my purchase list to add to my Casio collection 👍
I love this watch! I hope I can have this ,,,,someday!!!
Cool informative vid thanks, also I was not aware of screwbacks
I do have the DW-5610U. Best option to have.
What other G Shock models are made in Japan?
Just love my 5000U-1er quality is superb and it's so comfortable on my small wrist , I have also stealth black Casioak ..a very beautiful watch but it diggs into my wrist , only if they made it like the 5000u
I love my GW5000U! Amazing piece in my over 50 watch collection. Glad I went with it over the 5610U
Another question - where would one get a metal bracelet for this GW-5000U? Thank you.
Ali express
I'm wearing GW-5000-1JF for about 10 years daily. Sometimes I'm thinking about another daily driver. What do you think about MRGB5000?
have my GW-5000-1JF for nearly 5 years. haven't found a suitable replacement yet. i use it everyday. battery has _always_ been at H. had to replace the rubbers once cause they got streched from all the sauna sessions.love it!
A few weeks ago strap on y watch cracked so badly that I had to remove the case completely. also I found a rusted bolt - was removed with pliers. after 10 years I'm a bit bored of G's. So, probably I'd try Instinct 2 Solar Tactical because it's black @@nxxxxzn
The 5610u's Backlight is much more durable and can take much more activations before it no longer works. The downside is that it's less pretty
I bought a standard DW5600 and was really disappointed at how small the digits were, of all watches id think a Gshock would have digits the size of at least a 217, I felt cheated considering the $40 price
I have the GW5600J with the older module, and the GW-S5600 (titanium metal back, clasp and screws) with carbon fiber straps. I replaced the carbon fiber straps with the supple GW5600J straps, and it's lighter weight (compared to the screwback) makes it the perfect watch for me. Thanks for the video!
Always enjoy your videos 👍
What's your thoughts on the ggb100?
Nice review. Have you ever heard of anyone having to replace a tough solar module's batt?
Yes I have. Pretty easy...alot are ctl1616... rechargeable ones
Man those GW5000's are sure nice!
Do you have any plans on getting the new GW9500 Mudman when it releases? A review/tutorial video would be awesome!
Thanks for the video! Any idea if the GW5000U will be upgraded to include Bluetooth?
Si cómprate en gmw.b5000
If you also want BT, you should get module 3461. As in the GW-B5600.
Is the band length the same for the gw5000u and the less expensive 5610?
Thanks! Not many people talk about G-Shocks (or Squares for that matter). Great Video.
Wow, he couldn't even be bothered to reply back and thank you. 😑
Since my GW5000 arrived i did not replace the GMW5610U that used to wear...now i wear BOTH watches at same time !! I'm G-shock mental ???😅
Looks fantastic on a combi bracelet.
Great clear review. I love this model!
I love my 500u. I want the h5600 though.
5000U
I'd like to point out that,actually, the "old school" about light would be a little bulb light on the side of the display
G-5600UE-1DR Showing 3495 in watch display while on back its shows 3496 as module number.. is it original or fake??
Solar radio with a timer is everything you need!
Someone experienced problems with light button? Seems like more time passes and less return you have pressing it.
Did not had this problem with 5610.
I love the 5000u and it may be my next G-Shock. I already have the GW-S5600 and GW-5610, can you say where you got the gold text bezel I've been looking everywhere and failed to find one
The DW-H5600 has more legible text IMO. I have G--5600E and now that I have bifocal, it takes me occasionally more than a glance to be able to read.
It has improved specifications but lacks the charm of the 5610 for me, and the EL back light. I won't be swapping
Thanks forthe Review
I love my 5610 U, if I didn't have it I would get the 5000
Greetings from Frankfurt/Germany
As some onw who owns a 9400 Rangeman in yellow/black plus a g-5600 ue-1 solar. I don't see the need for this one.
All 3 of them display or does it have a Lap counter?
I have the GW-M5610 and thinking to pick this... and I don't know why lol
All I would have expected in this model is some vibration alarm feature.
does the 5610u also have the time displayed in the timer?
My first G-Shock was a GWM5610-1ER. My only other G-Shock is a GW-5000U-1JF. I’m waiting for a MIPS display offering without the step counter / heart monitor: that will be my third

Nope, but the GW-M5610U does.
Are the latest two square acquisitions long term keepers?
Hello, could you please teach us how we can mod the g-shock's letter bezels to a different color, like what you did with the DW-500SL? Thanks!
I got a different variant bezel, I didn't paint it myself.
Just removed the stock one and put the one from another model
Simple the best !!!
The 5000U is a great watch but nearly 3 times the price of a 5610, which is also multiband 6 and tough solar. Is it 3 times the watch? Everybody needs at least one "J" reference in the collection but I'm not sure this is going to be one for mine... Good review though Dude, everything we need to know and nothing we don't!
Is this GW 5000 U - 1 CR ?
I have the most basic model of U's the 5600UE i need to complete the 3U 😅😅
Just so you know; all 3 make your wrist look like a toothpick. Since you don’t care… that’s just great for “you”. Many videos have been made about watches looking dumb because they are huge or over sized for almost everyone. Btw; the trend is; going back to watches that are not oversized! Yes, I love Casio watches… but grossly oversized ones. Some people wear their pants inside out and backwards. To each his own.
I mean, these squares are tiny on my wrists lol.
I just bought a GW-5000U-1ER.
It’s my 5th watch, the 1st
g chock, and the 2nd watch I bought in a week.
I must have a problem, lol
I’ve always loved squares. The design is a true icon in it’s own right.
So it was a choice between 5610U, 5000U, and B5000D.
To me refined ergonomics are totally worth the premium over 5610U. Full metal B5000D just didn’t appeal to me.
Your 3495 module tutorial video was a great help setting up the watch.
It came with Tokyo as the home timezone. A nice touch for a watch made in Japan.
