  • DOUBLE REVIEW WITH SHANE @Relative Time
    Shane's video will premier 15 minutes before mine, I'll be over there with him in the chat to talk with everyone, and then after his is done, we'll be moving over here to this premier! Hope you all have time to watch both reviews! Check out his review here: • The Square Evolved : G...
    Review of the GLX-5600VH-4 , G-Shock 5600 Series Square, a pink 90s inspired throwback featuring Casio's G-LIDE feature set that's perfect for surfers, fishers, boaters, and basically anyone who spends significant time at the beach.

    This pink version is a JDM model that's hard to track down in the US, but there's some similar ones available.

    actually G-Shocks didn't sell all that well when they first came out and the brand was struggling until 1984 when a US TV commercial where an ice hockey player shoots a G-SHOCK instead of a puck and the wristwatch remains whole sparked the brand’s worldwide (but initially the US) popularity. the watch in the commercial was a DW-5200 and that watch is dubbed "HERO" because it saved the brand after it started selling like crazy after that commercial. Then came the DW-5600C which is dubbed "Speed" because of the movie Speed where Keanu Reeves is seen wearing a DW-5600C...that has to be one of my favorite G's

    I had my eye on this exact model for weeks now. Decided to wait for your review, once it popped up on your Instagram. Definitely getting one now!

    Interested to see the stress test you have planned. I've owned a few Gshocks but the squares are definitely my favorite. Thanks for the video.

    Thanks for the review Dave, a bit thumbs up for you. I’ve been looking to upgrade from my “Casio Royale” to a slimmer digital watch, without losing the world time function which is one of the two reasons why I bought one in the first place - the second being having kids which I know you can relate when it comes to wearing a watch when they’re around. This looks just like it, the moon phase is an added bonus and I even Ike the color. I’ll go and check Shane’s review too and then start browsing the Casio website!

    I've owned a DW5600 for around 6 months now, and it is the most versatile and lightest watch I own. Because of how light it is, it's also comfortable to wear all day doing all sorts of activities including sleeping.

    I've been looking forward to this review! I actually like the pink and have had my eye on the "Gorrilaz" model that has a bit of pink as well ha. My $14 Illuminator is actually what got me into loving the square. Great review and you should share some of the astro photography! I'm headed over to watch Shane's review and am looking forward to the stress tests Haha.

    I’ve had one model or another for over 30 years because of the countdown. Set at two minutes for between innings and pitching changes to avoid commercials. Alarm goes off, game on.

    I've got the watch Shane is reviewing , really does wear well and the solar , radio control and Bluetooth functions work well. Got the stealthed out black dw5600 and the black and white casioak , recently got the gbd800 step tracker for tracking lockdown walks , been impressed overall after avoiding G-Shock for many years.

    Good review. I bought the gwm5610 a few years back. Not for the looks, but it had really gotten on me since then. I wanted a tough as nails beater watch that was easy to fit under sleeves, not heavy, and I wanted it to be kind of an apocalypse watch. Which is why I wanted digital. Less moving parts. Since then I've fallen in love with it. The only thing that eventually went bad was the strap started cracking. So I threw a Nato on it and it's been great. Definitely will be getting a couple more.

    I pretty much wear a square G-SHOCK all the time at the moment. A very practical watch, especially in these difficult times.

    I've watched a number of your vids and somehow missed that you were in Japan. 私もう!I like your refreshing view on these watches, so many people seem to think they're somehow more than they are, I think you got it right.

    I'm late to this video, as is normal for me. My favorite DW5600 is the one I have customised for myself.

    I've been enjoying a lot of watch review channels since the pandemic started, yours in particular. The one thing that stops me from getting a modern version of the DW5000 is the small pushers. I could never go back to these. True, they aren't as bad as the F-91W which I also used to have. I think all Protrek, Edifice, and most other G-Shocks have nice large pushers that are gentler on the finger tips. My recommendation is the DW9052, I have one with grey and red highlights as my beater watch. I modded it with Bullbars, strap adapter, grey NATO Strap, and covered compass .

    Congrats on almost hitting 20k. Definitely not a watch for me but if it makes you happy, you should enjoy it. Definitely some impressive functions.
