Are G-Shocks Too Bulky For You? Try This One - Casio DW5600BB Review

- Опубліковано 3 сер 2024
- As cool as the big Mudmaster G-Shocks are, they're not for everyone or for every occasion. Luckily, Casio has done a great job and making watches that compromise on the durability of their infamous G-Shocks, while offering most of the functionality.

I like how this guy (at least in this video) is straight to the point, yet thorough and quick all at the same point.
This is exactly why I got this watch in first place: It's the least bulky watch from G-shock models! And I'm loving it! I can use it for almost everyday situations!
Yup and they look cool as hell !
Wat about ga 2100? In terms of lesser bulkiness?
@@hyleenpognaire8134 you're right, that's thinner.
You can also get a Baby-G square which are 40mm case or 38mm
Here are their product codes, BGD 565-1 or GMD-S5600BA-1
Apparently a Casio service center can replace the adjust button to a longer one so you can access it more easily while maintaining the integrity of the casing. Thanks for the video ✌️
No way haha that's awesome, didn't know that. And thanks for your support bro 👊
The question is...how much will that cost. Probably more than the cost of the watch itself.
Thank you so much for this video... I got my brand new Casio DW5600BB today...I don't like this watch...I LOVE IT
I collect watches and this watch is number 16 in my collection and G-Shock number 3 in my watch collection... And this is my new favorite watch ... I love the negative display ..It is the only digital watch that I own that has this "Negative display"
I paid £75 GBP for this watch in the UK. You can NOT buy a better watch for £75 GBP
My only "Small gripe" is the buttons are so recessed by the covers you can't press the buttons very easily but I can live with this.
Overall this watch ticks a LOT of "Yes" boxes..
Thank you once again for this video
EDIT..I like this watch so much that I am tempted to buy another one as a "Spare" when you think you pay £20,000 GBP for a Rolex this watch at £75 GBP is a GIFT!
I 100% Agree with you ..The "Beep" every hour is just annoying ..So pleased you can disable this feature on the watch.
Long live Casio.
The beep feature is useful for a person like me. I'm a auto tech and i use this feature to keep track of time. Without having to look at the watch while working with both hands.
For sure my man, I also like to use it as a backup alarm or a timer if I don't have my phone. Happy new year as well!
just got this after watching ur vid thanks great video🔥
Thank you for the review! I had trouble pressing the buttons and thought it was me being too picky. Returning the unit back. Thanks!
Nice review 👌🏽 .. just got this watch yesterday. I had the new era edition dw-5600 black and gold and i lowkey like this one better cause of the negative display
Thanks Jay! Yeah I feel you, it's a great touch to the already sleathy look. Hope you enjoy your watch man.
Great review! Very insightful
Thanks Rokas!
Thank you for the review!
Spectacular review. Give this little guy a try. Simple. All a watch needs to be.
Thanks boss! Totally agree, it's all you need 👊
Great review and fantastic watch, love the minimalistic and black appearance. One thing: you can set timer to countdown even from 1s, not only 24hrs.
nice review. thanks bro
The new Black Widow's watch spotted in a fight scene.
Haha it's funny you mention that because I beleive there are some marvel themed ones in production, might be thinking of Citizen though I'm not entirely sure
Yep, just saw the movie tonight and Yelena’s wearing the 5600bb! It caught my eye because I wore it for the first time in a while. Nice catch.
Thats why im here lol i loved her watch
I just love this watch. The old round g shocks were getting tired. But this retro style looks fresh and clean.
Thanks for this good review, have you tried the gbd200 square model, the negative display is amazing,
I have not! Gotta add that to the list, I’m a big fan of negative displays. Thanks for the kind comment Javier!
Great review !
Thanks!
Nice shots!
I got this one just to put in an AliExpress SS case and bracelet and now it’s one of my favorites of 28 G’s
Earned a new sub 🔥🔥
Welcome to the club my friend 🔥🔥👊👊
What a great vid! Subscription earned 👏 👍
Appreciate the kind words Rob! Thanks for stopping by
Just bought this model by mistake and man, I’m in fucking love!
👊 Mission failed successfully
Just ordered this watch, glad it got a decent review.
Yup I love this thing! Hope you enjoy your purchase
Which model you have ordered?
I have this watch. You mentioned a crackling noise in the alarm signal/buzzer. I experience that too now and then. It's kind of rare, but it happens. After my first battery replacement, the crackling alarm signal was completely gone for months (and then it started to appear again). Therefore I suspect the issue is either due to low battery, or intermittent connection. I did now shower with my watch, but expose it to a similar treatment, perhaps once a month, by degreasing the display under running luke warm water and a little bit of liquid hand soap.
That's good to know! I'm glad I'm not the only one who's experienced this, I think I'll do a battery swap and give that a shot, thanks!
Awesome timepiece. I like the Rangman as well.
There’s not many Casios I don’t like quite frankly
Is it good for average sized wrist though it seems to suit well on large wrist too on the video.
Got it today its awesome 🙏
Hell yeah it is 👊
Im watching this on 17th December 2022 and just ordered this very model ... I haven't owned a G-Shock before so this is going to be my first. I like it for the black stealthy vibe, it's uncomplicated and slimmer than other G-Shocks. I have another watch which is as chunky as a G-Shock and find I cannot wear it comfortably beneath a slim fit cuff, so usually err towards slim watches. Anyway, always wanted a G-Shock so am happy to have selected this one ... I'll know if it was a good choice after I get it.
How did you like it?
thanks for vid!
Thanks for watching!
Just bought this watch and I think it's a great fit for me. It's not really bulky and I barely feel it on my wrist.
Awesome! Yea it’s a super sleek one , congrats on the purchase
Bro literally chopped off a G-Shock 😂 - The button is annoying to press. Nice vid!
I love G shocks they got me into watch collecting. Unfortunately I sold most of them when I discovered automatic watches, I kept one though. I still have the rangeman mark 1, I don't think I will ever part with it. Great video, keep em coming
One g shock is all you need as that go to piece to beat up, and a rangeman is a great one at that!
Whats the benefit of automatic watches? Aesthetics?
Does the sound turns off and on somehow or is it just a missfunction that needs to be repaired?
The back screws are highly appreciated, I have a few watches with security screws and it's a pain... I have the same watch and love it, made the average working person to a guy in a suit all day... can't beat a Casio watch
This is a nice g shock. I think the ga 2100 series is the best g shock model since it’s the thinnest and looks really good imo
Thin, but wide and long. I love it, it's got great legibility and functionality, but it sometimes gets in the way with long sleeves. I want to try the square, maybe it's gonna be a bit more flush, despite being a bit thicker.
The buttons were covered in rubber to not be pushed when they’re not supposed to be im not sure if you noticed but the light mode and start/stop button are easily pushed compared to the adjust button cause they assumed you would push them more but I think it’s just personal preference
for me the adjust button its just hidden up
Great review, got mine today paid $60 so how can one really fault this? Very nice low key look. Smaller in person than i was expecting.
Thanks Tom! Definitely, sits nicer on the wrist than I expected personally, you paid an unbeatable price too I think I paid 150 for this a few years back
Where? I'm lovking down on this as my daily wear. Haven't had a watch in years. Got a tough and perfect no nonsense small black Google phone. Now I'm going to need this. Work is demanding it since my time keeping and variance in schedules is wild teaching this semester
@@zainshaikh527 I got mine on Ebay a few months back for $60 plus ship
@@helisoma well shit, I just paid a $106 for the slightly updated blutooth version for most likely a floor model lol in blue! first not so great but. I'll live since I normally get stupid prices on limited edition collector books and nerd statues lol. This is still great value for the product.....so long as it's solid and not worn out
Nice Video i love the watch but i dont know which battery is in the watch.
Thanks! It's the CR2016 battery in this one, hope that helps!
Thanks
Anytime my friend
Is the screen not hard to see? In the video it seems like it would be impossible in certain lighting
Standing in this video eh? Relax, take a seat👏🏻 i like the anime in this!
Lmao glad somebody liked the reference
GShock 5600UE is of similar price with LED lights and Solar Power, so what do you suggest?
How is the legibility of this watch? The negative dial looks cool, but was concerned it would be tough to read particularly out in the sun when there's light reflecting off the dial
Honestly it's not the worst that I've seen, I'd give it a 7/10 legibility
Damn, that rubber really makes a serious contribution then. Your speaker's damaged despite the 200m water resistance. Good vid pal.
Great looking watch
Yessir, thanks for watching Glen!
What are the major differences with the GW5600BC besides the bluetooth? I've been torn between the two.
Price
My screen seems to be more orange then yours, but I bought it from an AD. Any ideas?
This is just about the only gschock appeals to me at all. The rest are just so big they look comical to me. I tried on a mudmaster just for the heck of it even though I hated the look of it, but just the sheer size and shape was laughable looking on me (7.5" wrists). I feel like you need to have arms like the rock to wear most of the gshock line. Love the negative display for looks but practically not so much, so if they made a standard display I'd probably snag one at some point. I guess I just prefer the older style of smaller mens watches.
Same here Jay! The reason why I love wearing watches is for the aesthetic of it and the Casio g shocks currently look so laughably big and takes up 99% of people wrists unless like you said the guy is huge like the rock.
I have the dw5600ms-1, the negative display of it is kind of hard to read. But if you want the one that has looks and easy to read time keeper, this watch is the best for you.
Appreciate your input my friend!
The recessed buttons are a deal-breaker. I returned the DW5600E-1V because I literally could not press the adjust button, and the other three buttons had to use my fingernail, which is not as ergonomic as being able to press them with the flesh of my finger, the way I can with my DW290-1V. This ain't nitpicking; this is a major issue, especially for someone like me who intends to use the stopwatch on a regular basis.
These watches you cannot beat but the cases are 5 x to be for my liking .the smaller case the larger screen the better
Any idea when the 40th g-Shock anniversary will be released
funny because if my watch doesn't beep every hour, I get a feeling like I'm loosing my sense of time and it makes me very nervous.
Does the alarm vibrate? Is the countdown timer adjustable, say to 7 minutes?
Hey Christopher, the alarm doesn't vibrate and yes the countdown timer is adjustable. If you'd like specific instructions on how to use the DW5600BB to the fullest you can do a quick Google search for the manual and be able to find instructions for every single function it has, hope that helps!
@@WatchTWM thank you so much for getting back to me! Sucks about the alarm, guess I'll do some more digging.
@@c4ristopher any time my man! Lemme know if you have any other questions I'm happy to help
Great looking watch, but the top-left button sitting so flush with the edge of the watch was a total deal breaker for me, I could barely press the Adjust button without using a thin screwdriver, hence I had to send it back. You really shouldn't have to scythe part of the watch off to make the buttons usable, surprised you gave this such a positive review.
You certainly have a valid point, I kept mine anyway because I liked the aesthetic without the bulkiness of g shocks, and I paid a low price so I didn't really care to damage it, but yeah you shouldn't have to do that normally lol
Remove the bezel and cut away the resin below the button with a knife. BOOM no more problem
Almost sent mine back to the store thinking it was an issue - this was a bad design!
😂 the exact watch I have from years ago but trying to shy away from for similar style with metal band, because I don't like the black straps doesn't look clean on my wrist
I would have imagined Lebron James would go for a something a little more expensive 🤣
I just love how you removed all shock protection by cutting off the lugs. So ironic. And on a side note, I always hear about how impossible it is to press the buttons on a G-Shock. But I have never had that problem. I don't use a fingernail, just my finger pad. Maybe I have boney fingetips? But I guess I have the same fingertips as the Casio designers, as I have absolutely zero problems using the buttons.
ruined the watch when he did that. But its his watch.
Does it have tough solar? If it dosent may I please request you to recommend something similar with tough solar 🙏🏻
my tough solar will not last 2 years.. it kept freezing so i think i broke some buttons.. then battery had to die completely... and it came back to life. now the chronometer is stuck again.... really annoying.. so ok it is solar and in theory the battery will last forever... but the watch won't... so 10 year battery? doesn't sound as bad now, does it?
Hey Kunal, it isn't and to be fully honest the only real solar watches I would go for is an eco drive. However, with that said, I'm a big fan of the Rangeman! It's just quite a chunky watch if you have big enough wrists for it
5610
Great thankxxx
Anytime Carlitos!
Would you recommend the bbn-1dr one? It has nylon straps.
To be honest I think any of the materials look great with the way they're all stealthy and blacked out
@@WatchTWMaight ty. I alr ordered the BB one with silicone strips. I wish I won’t regret : D
@@h0llyn1gga you've made the right choice. You can easily change out your resin strap to NATO or Zulu strap with aftermarket parts.
I just brought this watch from a G-SHOCK store in West village in New York City and the guy set it up for me and told about just the same thing you are talking. The fix is a small Phillips head screw driver. Once set your good.
Glad he told you ahead of time, and good to know, thanks! 👍
Has my initals in model name (dw) favorite colour (teal blue) Im a huge edc guy, oh, AND i had the og back in the day. Also, i love blackout edc. How can I not buy this right now bro? Lol 👍
Trying to buy one of these online in Australia. I keep seeing them with different codes. some have the code ending in -1E or 1DR.
I know the general model is dw5600bb but does it matter if there is different letters/numbers at the end? Thanks
I think the last letters/numbers are to show different colors on the watch, display and different kind of bracelets.The watch is the same
This watch is the perfect size. All it needs is the new MIPS display. Great video btw.
Yeah it’s definitely easier to wear than a lot of g shocks, and thanks Robin!
Just got one and it looks great, but I couldn’t figure out what is the meaning of that “PS” sign. What’s the difference of ps on and ps off?
Hey Mike, glad you like it! Where exactly is this PS sign? On the digital display?
@@WatchTWM after pressing adjust button than press mode button several times, eventually the PS section will appear. It can switch from on to off, I just figured it out that it means power saving, so apparently if you switch PS to on, it literally blackened your screen when not using, quite a cool function.
Can't believe you shaved your watch dude to get to those buttons!!!!
Hahah I know man, it was impossible to use with any sort of glove for work or cold weather or anything , and that's mainly when I use a watch like this #TheStruggleWasReal
@@WatchTWM Dude....😲.....those watches are not cheap and are beautifully designed and manufactured.
I personally would have bought a cheap, butt still durable watch that already has big ass buttons and conserved this beautiful stealthy looking G shock. Only wear it when you go out. Never shower 🚿 with it. No need to unless you're just timing your showers for what ever reason.
@@electron7659 I personally like to beat up these kinds of watches just like I do to other watches like an SKX. I save the delicate stuff for the dress watches haha
@@electron7659 if there's one watch where you are allowed to do this, is this one.
@@migueldionisio3598 You clearly have no appreciation for high quality design and engineering.
You shouldn't cut the plastic, if you find it hard to get to the button then this watch might not be for you, no offence.
I was wondering how bulky this one is compared to the ga2100. Loved the dbz clip in there.
Haha thanks man! I would also have to say i bet this one is thinner, I can't say for sure as I've never handled a GA2100 unfortunatley but those octagon cases tend to be on the larger side for g shocks, hope that helps at least! 👊
Man really took a knife to a $100 watch like it's nothing
Desperate times call for desperate measures....and I have fat fingers haha
I'll play soccer with and come back to let you know if it's really resistant...😂
Haha perfect get it tested in different sports, I like it 👍
Or go to a tea party lol
Just ordered this!
You'll love it Syed!
Hey man
I will prob buy one but does it lose time (clock) over time
I have found it to be very accurate. Sometimes I’ll forget about it for a month or two and notice no time change. It’s digital so you don’t have that issue anywhere near as much as an automatic. You’ll love it!
@@WatchTWM but I have a Casio digital watch looks like the G-shock but is not a G-shock, and after 7 months having it, it loses 2 sek of time (clock) every day
Thanks for the quick reply
I almost made my mind to buy GW-5000U is anybody out there can give me a reason why I should buy another watch? I mean another Casio
Hi what exact model of DW6000bb is this watch?
Hey Prashant! This is the '-1' model I believe, it's one of the older ones for sure I bought it about 4-5 years ago, hope that helps!
Hey
I have a casio watch but after 6 months its started to lose time (clock) does this watch do that?
Hey Lucas , this one seems to be doing very well! It’s normal for time loss to happen over time but as long as it doesn’t keep getting worse , that is usually just a sign of a bad battery. Haven’t had any issues with this one!
its normal if u didnt touch or set it for a long time
Awesome 🔥🔥 ps sic Dime Razorback back there dude! 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Damn beats the 5000, looks more clean and simple.
Perfect
Planning to buy this. Is it worth it?
Yup, awesome watch!
the Nixon "heat" is à good alternative too, and mich more classier.
Im confused between dw5600e 1 and this
where is this watch made
Ok is it me or this guy's voice is like a symphony of Viking gods preparing for battle????
Does it have auto light feature?
it does
I love my 5600bb perfect for 70bucks
Yup! 70 bucks well spent!
Where can i purchase a authentic dw5600bb alot of fakes selling on Amazon at this moment in time
Hi, try and find a trusted reseller online (Amazon does have some good ones from time to time). You could always try buying from a different Amazon region if it let's you, depending on where you are in the world. Otherwise check out Chrono24, lots of used but you can still find new watches on there. Hope that helps you get started!
Can someone please confirm this: Everywhere I look, the DW5600BB is listed as having a case diameter of 43mm. According to this video, he measures it at 39.4mm?
Which is correct?
I’m looking for a small G shock and if it’s really 39.4mm I’ll definitely be buying this.
The case is a little different at different points so there’s some variability in the measurements online. Also side to side and corner to corner will be different measurements also mind you.
Hmmm thanks decided not to get this model the blackout is cool but heard so much that it's hard to read.
Personally I find it's only hard to read in bright light, but the backlight button is thankfully quite good!
Is it as tough as dw5600e1v which holds the guinness record?
I need help, i got gifted a watch exactly like this and the person was a smoker. The watch stinks, its like im next to a smoker, i assume it absorbed the smoke, i tried washing it with soap but it didnt work. Let me know ur ideas.
You could try letting it sit in baking soda and lemon that might work, hard to say if that will work or not but give it a shot
@@WatchTWM Does it break if i put the screen too ?
Thats why i sold all my bulky watches and bought these bad babies
I wonder if I could get away with this one as a formal watch?
Do you guys think it’d fit well on a 6 inch wrist?
I think it would look perfect boss 👊
@@WatchTWM thanks man, nice video and new sub.
@@samc0321 welcome to the club Sam! Happy to have you here boss 🙏
would this fit a 9 inch wrist?
Absolutley! Id say most G shocks would
Beeping every 1 hour can be useful for cyclists, on longer rides it is recommended to eat something every 45-60 min. so i could see it being used like that.
Can it be turned off?
Can that hourly beep be disabled?
Yes
That is the one thkng i hate about G shocks is they are too dam big.. I love my 5610u but wish they made more 38-42mm watches also wish they made thinner watches so a sleeve can go over it
i have that gshock model
It's a pretty decent watch, good pick!
@@WatchTWM the menu is more gothic, dw-5900bb or dw-5900-1.
Nah my brudda is STRONG
I'll never buy another one, nor would I ever recommend to anyone to buy such a negative display. The good one is on the Rangeman B1000.
Thia or fossils ch2647?
I would say definitley this one Richard!
My wrist size is 5.9 inches. Is it for me?plz reply 😭😭
Absolutley! You're only a little bit smaller than mine and I have lots of extra holes to tighten it
Thank you very much.
