I have the original DW-6900 for around 25 years now. I bought it when I was 10 years old. It got two new batteries, a new bezel and a new band over the years, but it's still one of my favorites. Good investment by the 10 year old me I think.
I wasn't going to get into G-shocks, but I found one of these from the 90s at a flea market for a steal, but it was missing the G button, bezel/case protector and the original strap was worn and cut to be shorter. I then hunted down the components I needed and now it looks almost as good as the watch in the video.
@@jimbobbeer6642 I found a guy on eBay from Israel who sells the bezel, battery, strap and battery. It was about 35$ + shipping. My bargain G-shock is now not much of a bargain anymore, but it looks good. Search for (best_watch4u). He migh not have any more buttons left though. Good luck.
@@jimbobbeer6642 Also, if you find a replacement G button it won't come with its own very small round retaining clip, so very carefully remove it from the old button inside and try not to lose it while you fit the new button .
That’s part of the appeal of G-Shock watches. Wear it, beat it, and when it starts to look a bit scruffy, you can fit a new bezel and band and it looks like new again! You can even change the color, switch to a combi bracelet, fit a bullbar, a metal bezel or even a full metal kit and completely customise it. I recently picked up a totally worn 12 year old rare white GW-6900, bezel has paint that peels of, band is broken. Guess what, function wise it is perfect, charging, battery, Multiband are working flawlessly. So now comes the fun task to refurbish and possibly customise it. Gotta love Casio!👍
Have both the 5610 and 6900. The 6900 is more functional as the buttons are far easier to push and the light button is so easy to find. Which one looks better is subjective…. I love them both
I have a 6900ms (1289) that I’ve had for over 12 years. Gives you that classic 90s look I grew up with. Perfect middle ground size. This thing is tough. I’m a full time automotive mechanic and have given this a beating since I got it. It’s been soaked in hot dirty motor oil, gasoline more times then I can count over the years. I scrub it off with a dirty sink brush with gritty soap that most mechanics use. I’ve worn it shooting in the blazing hot dusty Arizona desert all it’s life, swam all summer, raced and crashed dirt bikes wearing it. Banged around all its life. It’s super lightweight for its size and wasn’t very expensive. All I can say it’s survived everything I’ve thrown at it.
Not my thing anymore, but were a useful tool when I raced dirt bikes - had one on the crossbrace for 3 seasons and never failed, despite vibrations, water, cold, heat, mud & numerous crashes. I'm old now (50+) so life is much gentler so I've moved away from quartz. Good show, thank you 👍🏻👍🏻
I've been watching watch reviews for donkeys years and just came across your channel by chance as I've bought the DW-6900. Absolutely love the humour, you made me laugh man. In a world of serious, geeky watch reviews, you're a breath of fresh air. Lovely stuff! (Not my words Lynne, the words of Shakin' Stevens.)
Thee were so popular in the 90's. I remember when I was a kid in elementary school, some kid had one and he showed it off to us. He activated the stopwatch function and we were all entranced by the animations on the these eyes. 🤣 Now, 25 years later at the age of 34 I'm wearing my GW-6900.
My DW6900 is ten years old and still on the original battery with heavy use. I wouldn't worry about the battery life on most DW G-Shocks. The alarm is also much louder than its solar counter part and the watch can withstand greater temperature ranges due to the CR2016 battery properties compared to the solar version battery. Great review and glad you like the watch.
i call BS. my first one only lasted about 3 years and i ruined it by changing it myself and ruining the waterproof seals so i got another. and it just died so i got my 3rd lol going to have a professional replace it this time. im getting like 3-4 years on one battery.
My favorite thing about G shocks is having both the countdown timer and stopwatch, since I have a difficulty using an analog chronograph and I just don't like analog chronographs
Totally agreed about the DW6900 vs GW6900. The GW lacks the golden and blue accents that make the DW so cool. I never related it to the F-91W, but you are right!
I get enough people with my sense of humour stay and subscribe my friend! The channel is smashing it right now! No way I can change. But!!! You can go elsewhere my friend. There are 1 million other non hysterical watch channels out there! ???
I got this watch in the military and have had it for about 3 and a half years without changing the battery and it’s taken a beating, I want to change the plastic buckle on the strap but it hasn’t failed me yet.
I've been owning a DW-6600 for over 15 years (that took a visit to Casio Germany already because of a "disappearing" case) and a GW-M5610 for over 4 years now. Although the DW-6600 is a little bit too large for my wrist I absolutely love both of them because when the going gets tough, the G-shock gets going. 😄
the triple graphic is useful for tactical uses, military, pilots, engineers etc. in their jobs the difference in seconds results in a successful or failed operation have a visual with him development of the minute is very useful
Absolutely my friend but if I tell someone they are gonna get 5 years and they don’t, I get abuse!! Best going with the specs and anything more is a bonus yes?;)
I wasn't planning on getting a 6900 series G-Shock. I wanted the GWM-5610U originally. But then I did a search for "NASA G-Shock," and to my surprise, I saw that there's a limited edition GW-6900NASA24-1 out right now. It has some cosmetic differences to the standard 6900, like the NASA logo that replaces the CASIO one, slightly different "eye" colors, an EL backlight that has the gravity formula in it, and the formula for impulse engraved on the back. Being a NASA and science nerd, I had to order it. I'm excited to have my very first Tough Solar and Multi Band 6 module G-Shock watch that's also a NASA collab!
I bought a GW6900 a couple years ago. Did a partial mod to it with a metal bracelet & bullbar. Love it for its Tough Solar feature. I modded a 5610 to all metal. I refer to these as Darth Vader & The Terminator. Getting my first Casioak soon and plan on doing a full metal SKX mod for this one. GA-B2100BNR1A Ignite Red on an all black metal bezel & bracelet. Thanks Mad Man. Good videos. Keep ‘em coming. 🤖
I have an AE2100. Not a G Shock, more a G Mild Surprise. 200m water resistance, a ten year battery and some metal bits on it, for thirty quid. Mr Cruise would be jealous.
Nice! Must admit I’ve ended up selling both my 6900s as didn’t get so much wear. If you want to see a cool square - check out the G7800. Good resource is shockbase if you haven’t used it yet.
I just found one on the clearance rack at Walmart. $20. I picked it up. The battery was dead but changed it out and it works perfect. Not replacing my GAB2100CY-1A though. Casioak is still my go to.
I used my X-Acto blade on the strap where it splays the strap outward. I cut the strap buttresses off and now the watch strap articulates downward more, is comfortable and you can't see the alteration.
You are an absolute bastard Russ! Lol another bloody g shock to buy , and I have just bought the bargain buy from beaver brooks the g line is it? Great show as always matey.
An absolute beast of a G Shock 💪 Looks like it wears really well too! I would love it if it had solar and multi band 6 but I totally agree that the colours on this regular battery powered version look so good it would be hard to overlook it. Awesome show as always MWC 👏👏👏👏
I had a copy of this, not G-Shock of course. And now I buy this because it reminds me about the copy. Imagine buying the original because it looks like your beloved copy. 😂
@@sprocastersprocaster Mid 90s, ex commie country. Small salaries. Only relatively rich people could have the original. It was either hard to find or 3x (or more) the original price. But copies were easy to find and buy.
Great video as always MWC!!! I love this GShock and I recently acquired the John Mayer/HODINKEE collaboration in the off white color and I love it!!!. I agree with you on the GW solar! Too drab! Thanks my friend!!!
Great review, I’ve not considered this model before. My current G-shock is the GW-B5600, but my favourite has been the G-7900 and I sold it about a year ago. I miss the moon and tide graph because I live on the coast, so I resurrected another classic I had in the draw - the SPS-300 Sea Pathfinder.
I always enjoy your videos. But your wife is correct, it looks like a gas mask with an ugly face in it. I bought one yesterday and will return it. I didn't spot the plastic buckle until I got it home. The strap feels very cheap and I even found a couple of customer reviews where the strap actually broke in about 30 days of use. Like I said, listen to your wife. You make great videos in spite of it all. Thanks.
That was the first watch I really wanted when I was a kid and I got it some 25 years ago. I wore it with pride for at LEAST 10 years before I retired it... Such a throwback to see one today! Brings so many memories... LOVE IT :)
I just ordered this brand new for $40... I think I got a pretty good steal... The two circle dials that coordinate with the seconds remind me of the movie "predator", When the predator set his self-destruct bomb on his wrist.... kind of looks like that when it's counting down.... my favorite G-Shock, and actually my favorite overall Casio is my GD 350... I just got that a couple of weeks ago and it has taken over as my favorite Casio... we will see how the 6900 measures up 😊
Well update on the 6900...it is my LEAST FAVORITE Casio!!!...I just don't really like anything about it...I don't like how it sits on the wrist, I don't like the feel of it or the weight, just overall don't like it..👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻....p.s....you're wife is right also, it is ugly and looks like a gas mask
Great video. I love G-Shock, I have too many. I’m lucky that I have 8” wrist so even the biggest G-Shock look good on me. I tell everyone, G-Shock, the best watch money can buy. Cheap, accurate and indestructible.
Love the wife reactions. Really great feature. Funny that your wife's reactions only affirm that we don't really care what our wives think, but at least we go through the motions to say that we do. Lol. Love your channel! Looks like a gas mask...😂
This clunk is not for me but thanks for making an entertaining video! I have a DW-5610 and that has to be enough given all the other wonderful brands that must be explored.
Why does no one think this looks like the Predators wrist bomb in the final scene after Arnold beat it !? Thank you for the amazing review! Cheers from a fan in Bengaluru India.
Your video convinced me to buy one of these. So glad I did. I’ve only worn it for a few days now but it’s a nice break from my Apple Watch. Kind of nice not having all those buzzing notifications on my wrist, honestly!
I remeber when this beauty came out, I was a sophomore in high school and really wanted one but sadly any money that I made at work went towards my comics. I just never commited to buying one but NOW I am going to pick one up without hesitation. Cheers and great video as always
Another great video 🙂👍 It is so weird; I just ordered the white 6900 with negative display a last week. I really like your version, but I think it would lose out to my 5910 too often..
Mr MWC! What about Mr Pagani and the caseback? And get your watch out? Maybe second hand Stan can tell us about getting these on the secondary market? Great show as always!
I own several GShocks to include the gw5610&gw6900. The 5610 fits like a glove the resin strap is extremely soft. I swapped the straps on the 6900 with dw5600 straps it hugs my wrist just like the 5610👍🏼.
Im wearing this watch now freaking love it its indestructible highly recommend its so bad ass but yet so simple plastic buckle is not cheap plastic doesn't give i got 5 year's out of my battery The dw6900 1v is my favorite of all time . I own the solar one as well i love it
The rules for "size on wrist," and what's "too big," are different for G-Shocks than for other watches. They're deliberately big and chunky, and what would be "oversized" or "too big" for any other watch simply doesn't apply when it comes to a G-Shock. "Too big" is kind of the whole point.
Just stumbled upon your channel and have to say I really enjoyed this video. I like the retro vibes and the included wife notes! LOL Just great content!
For a better “looking” and a better “fitting” G Shock (for us smaller wrists...) - take a look at the AWG-M100B...AND as a bonus is Solar powered and has Multi-Band 6 Atomic Timekeeping. Also, comes is a few different color variations - search “AWGM100”. Then remove the cheap plastic watch strap and put on the SEIKO KN20 strap from the Mini Turtle (with very slight trimming for the lug width difference) - and Bam!! Nice watch that is very comfortable to wear. “Life is Good!” :)
I have the original DW-6900 for around 25 years now. I bought it when I was 10 years old. It got two new batteries, a new bezel and a new band over the years, but it's still one of my favorites. Good investment by the 10 year old me I think.
I was about to write a similar - if not identical - comment. Wearing my 25+yo DW-6900 as I write this.
It’s like triggers broom 😂
So it's basically been completely replaced? 😂
I wasn't going to get into G-shocks, but I found one of these from the 90s at a flea market for a steal, but it was missing the G button, bezel/case protector and the original strap was worn and cut to be shorter.

I’d love a scaled down and thinner version of it
Think they do one Nelson!!!
Casio actually makes a non Gshock watch that looks a little similar to the 6900. It’s called the w219!
It's more likely you can grow a larger wrist than for Casio to make smaller G-shocks
U can by the GMD6900

@@JAK0E Sorry to hear you were not able to do a simple battery change. Perhaps yours sat on the self longer before it was purchased. Take care.
I love the 6900 as well, along with the 5600, the best watches that mankind has ever created. Nice job on the video too.
Hard to disagree my friend;)
My favorite thing about G shocks is having both the countdown timer and stopwatch, since I have a difficulty using an analog chronograph and I just don't like analog chronographs
The ole battery powered 6900 is a battle tank. It is everything a G Shock is supposed to be.
"G-shock looked more like weapons on the wrist than a time device" You certainly earned my respect, Sir.And my sub. 0:28
Totally agreed about the DW6900 vs GW6900. The GW lacks the golden and blue accents that make the DW so cool. I never related it to the F-91W, but you are right!
Hahahaha it’s only because of my childhood my friend I have this relationship with an F91;) yes it’s just lacking the warmth of the DW!
The GW-6900 mentioned at 7:37 is more my thing and offers tremendous value for money.
This watch literally popped into my head a minute before I got the notification for this video lol. The matrix is real.
That is freaky Will!!!!!!
😂 I just wrote a similar post....ordered the white version with negative display last week
I've had my DW6900 for 5 years. I put a metal buckle on mine from my DW5600 after I changed the strap. Looks allot better.
I think the light weight redeems it's excessive size.
Think your right Henry!!
6ix9ine: "Does the 6900 come in multi-color?"
Think there are a million colour variants my friend!
i’ve been dying to get this watch for many year’s 😭
Do it!!!
Such a great watch! And, as usual, awesome video...I love your creativity!
Thank you very much my friend!!

It’s a good watch if it didn’t have a plastic clasp. I ordered one and had to send it back because you can’t silence it and it has a plastic clasp.
Hi , how about dw-6910 ? Share review?
I have the solar version, an amazing watch.
C00l😊😊
I suspect you are in trouble with a G shock addiction on the way 😂😂😂join the club I have 22 G shocks .12 of them solar,12 of them battery
Pretty bad now my friend!!
Mr MWC! What about Mr Pagani and the caseback? And get your watch out? Maybe second hand Stan can tell us about getting these on the secondary market? Great show as always!
Hahahahaha he hates a Casio my friend! He’ll show his face soon enough !
This was my first g shock I bought, love it
Awesome!!!!
Now 2 years with a Dwm5610 as featured. But beware its a gateway G-shock. Now have 3 other models!. Its impossible to own one.
GW-M5610.
Very cool if you want that hit of nostalgia. Not my favourite I'll admit but still cool and feature packed to boot. Great job mate
Your right my friend. If your into collecting famous film watches . This is an easy pick up!!
I own several GShocks to include the gw5610&gw6900. The 5610 fits like a glove the resin strap is extremely soft. I swapped the straps on the 6900 with dw5600 straps it hugs my wrist just like the 5610👍🏼.
dw-9052 is far more better than this
so basically you loved the colours 😂okayyy!
Im wearing this watch now freaking love it its indestructible highly recommend its so bad ass but yet so simple plastic buckle is not cheap plastic doesn't give i got 5 year's out of my battery
The dw6900 1v is my favorite of all time .
I own the solar one as well i love it
Superb! Yeah I’d like to get the solar y’know just to complete the set!!;)
Keifer Sutherland wore the 6600 in season 2 of 24. A watch I own.. when I realised that it became known as my Jack Bauer watch
Awesome!!!!! I know he wore a Subby in the first series! Obviously stepped it up the more seasons he did!!!
Brilliant. Loved it ♥️ what do you think of the G-SHOCK rangeman gpr b1000 ? Probably not retro enough for you. It’s a beast and I love mine.
They definitely speak to me more and more my friend! However I have just bought the GBD200 in blue! Check those beauties out!
The rules for "size on wrist," and what's "too big," are different for G-Shocks than for other watches. They're deliberately big and chunky, and what would be "oversized" or "too big" for any other watch simply doesn't apply when it comes to a G-Shock. "Too big" is kind of the whole point.
It’s a good point my friend! When it gets to the point that it looks like either yours dads or big brothers watch that’s when it’s too big;)
Nice 😃
Lovely!
1:41 mother lover XD
I’m not sure whether to go for the 6900 or the 5900. I love them equally but mum said I can only get one
You get both!! But just know it won’t be long till you can’t buy the 5900!
"bulky mother-lover". Never heard that expression before but made me laugh my ass off.
Cheers Franco!! Use it in a sentence Somewhen today!!!!
Just stumbled upon your channel and have to say I really enjoyed this video. I like the retro vibes and the included wife notes! LOL Just great content!
Thank you so much for finding the channel my friend!!
Just picked up a blue GBD 200, lovely a small enough for grown ups to wear. Had a 90's DW6900 back in the day too...enjoy
Ordered it last week hopefully coming today!
Super, cheers Russ
The photo of the gw is misleading. There are colors but they don’t quite pop as much as the DW.
Your right my friend thanks for the input!
Marcel Plain
I needed..
Whne I think of a G-Shock I think of this watch, Not any other models, just this watch.
I’m starting to also my friend!
66/69 is tooo big bulky timepiece
For a better “looking” and a better “fitting” G Shock (for us smaller wrists...) - take a look at the AWG-M100B...AND as a bonus is Solar powered and has Multi-Band 6 Atomic Timekeeping. Also, comes is a few different color variations - search “AWGM100”. Then remove the cheap plastic watch strap and put on the SEIKO KN20 strap from the Mini Turtle (with very slight trimming for the lug width difference) - and Bam!! Nice watch that is very comfortable to wear.
“Life is Good!” :)
