Thank you so much. Just received a GXW-56-1BJF. There were English instructions included so was able to complete the initial set up. But the next week came the daylight savings time switch. I couldn’t get things straight between home and UTC settings. I had almost given up until I found your tutorial. It saved the watch from being relegated to the old watch drawer. Thank you.
i just got mine and your video helped a lot. The instructions I got are all in Japanese. I will say it's a rugged watch but the numbers are very little in contrast to the size of the watch. My Timex Ironman shock watch is much smaller but much more legible than the G Shock King. $45 vs $215.
I'll admit it that I had this watch since 2013 but didnt knew anything till date . I just watched your video bro and you explained everything so nicely and in an elaborating manor that a new user can Understand properly. Thumbs up. 0:) Thank you
Great review! Just got one today from Ebay. Mine only came with Japanese instructions, so your tutorial is much appreciated. I like the size, it really isn't too much bigger than a Rangeman. Wears nicely on my 7+ inch wrist!
Just picked up a GXW-56BB-1JF when I visited Japan 2 weeks ago. Thank you for your very detailed, easy to digest explanation! After learning all the functions, I love my watch more after watching your video.
I have the GX56BB-1, got it used "like new" but it's been working perfectly. Didn't knew about atomic time until after I bought my King Gshock. Going strong for 6 years now with regular signs of ware and tare on the case. Beautiful watch.
Thank you very much. I just picked up this grail on the secondary market in Sydney. Interestingly he ability to select ‘auto’ DST is disabled. I assume this is because the multi band does not receive signal in AU. I will test if it updates (RCVD) on a trip to both US & UK in the next month. Thank you again - this is priceless as you know, the supplied manual is in Japanese. I had watched your review previously and have enjoyed watching it whilst setting my new ‘king of G’ watch up. Cheers
I live in Arizona and we don't use daylight saving. So half the year we are pacific time, and half the year we are mountain due to daylight saving time changes. So I set my watch to LA time and now it's off an hour. because it keeps reading LA time. Does this mean I'll need to change to Denver time the. we are mountain time zone and then back to LA time when we are pacific time zone? Can I tuen the atomic sun off?
Sorry, I found at least one. www.amazon.com/CASIO-watch-G-SHOCK-MULTIBAND-GXW-56-1BJF/dp/B06ZYG51WC/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1548857023&sr=8-3&keywords=GXW-56
Yes Sir this is GXW-56 and not as you said GXW-5600. Correction. TQVM. I just bought one in Mir, Sarawak, Malaysia on 17/7/2021. By the way, can you tell me this is 2010 or 2020 timepiece?
I have question sir I wish u answer me what I want to know is the battery life for G shock watch especially any kind of tough solar so I want to know if the battery life stay for example 5 years can you change it or from the sun light ur not gonna changer at all my means is if it’s a tough solar it’s going to stay forever charge with light
@@WatchGeek thank you so much brother ur a great man I’m watch ur channel every day u become one of our family thanks a lot 😃 from you we learn everyday 🙏
No, BUT some people were able to catch the signal from the Japanese tower by using my amplifier method described in this video: th-cam.com/video/wI4FwQMCN9w/w-d-xo.html
Where can I find a GX-56-1B? The Fort Collins Tower will be going away in 2019 making the multi band 6 unusable in the US. I want this same colorway minus the MB6.
@@javiermenchaca5432 Yup I hope hes right b/c the guy I talked to made it sound like it was happening he just didn't know when this year. I really hope we don't lose it,
Hello, this model G-Shock GX-56BB 3221 can it receive a radio signal from the towers of atomic clocks. I live in Bulgaria, Plovdiv. Would you make a video for him too?
the closest tower to you is the one in germany. the maximum distance it can send the signal is about 1500km. i would guess you are too far to get a signal.
@Gabe Ferlin No. GX-56BB-1 is a non-atomic version of King and the watch presented in this video is GXW-56-1B, the "W" letter in model code tells us that this watch is atomic time receiving enabled. All other functions are the same.
Vjerojatno znaš da casio ima lcd display test i tilt sensor test screen i solar panel test, zašto ne ubaciš to u ovako detaljne recenzije,bile bi još detaljnije...
@@asifnadhiya3601 that is the DST setting, for places that observe daylight savings time, or Summer time. Maybe your location is out of reach of the atomic towers so it can't be set to AUTO, or maybe you have the solar ONLY, not solar atomic variant of the watch as they look the same
A friend received a watch like this from Japan and auto synching was turned off for Paris. It worked on all other European cities but for Paris which he wanted to use. It took a bit of a head-scratching to figure out what the problem was... You live and learn I guess :) Zs
@Zsolto66 Despite the fact that automatic atomic syncing was somehow turned off, you could always manually sync the watch with either Mainflingen, Germany or Anthorn, Great Britain towers.
RCVD nestane čim počneš petljat ili vremenske zone ili ručno namještat vrime ili uključiš ručno RCVD... Pozdrav iz Splita 👍Aj ti sad prevedi ovo na engleski 😂
this is approximately the same size as the mudman g9300, but with less features - no thermometer, no compass - therefore not worth the money, in my opinion. Also, the time digits are the same size as the mudman g9300. It would be worth considering if the digits are significantly larger.
I just recently bought this watch. I wonder why I can’t initiate manual reception. I tried to hold the button for quite a while but nothing happened. Do you have any idea why is this happening?
You are the Tina Turner of G shock tutorials... simply the best. Thank you so much. I always watch you vids when I get a new G

I got (or rather assembled) GXW-56GB-1, but with positive display from GXW-56-1B and I love it. It spent whole summer vacation time on my wrist.
I have been wearing my gx56 almost daily for seven years and still going strong it does not want to die and still super accurate

Really appreciate your tutorials on watches. Trying to read the manual is such a headache. Your instructions are easy to understand! Thanks!
One of the best displays in a gshock digital watch ever
I just got mine (GXW-56-1AJF model) and I love it. Your tutorials are so detailed and easy to follow. Excellent content!!
I just got this beast. It's awesome and will replace my GW-9300 as my deployment watch.

Congrats 😊👍
Dude that was so good.
I have no doubts left
Great tutorial
Thanks!!!
Okay, this is my dream G-Shock. Thanks
Just got mine today and love it. I put a bull bar on it and it looks great, your video helped in setting it up
Thanks for the tutorial, pretty standard for g shocks except the atomic etc. Seems a fine watch,- I have one on the way in the post! Thanks again.
How in the heck do you get a thumbs down vote??? SMH! Always great videos.

Watch snobs and G shock haters
hello sir, thank you for finally on releasing this tutorial video. long awaited video for me. keep up the good work. cheers. :)
Thanks 😊
As always, excellent video and very detailed review!
Thank you for sharing, it really helped me out setting my G shock 👍🏽👍🏽
I got one with a gold interface, its phenomenal
Kao i uvijek, odlično objašnjeno! 👏
Hvala
I have this one and the step tracker. Staying in now so I'm just using this watch. I love it and these videos.
Do you know how many years it lasts from new battery on the negative (black) display ?? Thanks for the info and great review!!
Another question... Are the both 3220 and 3221 modules have the "RCVD" function ??? Thank you so much again in advance!
Thanks for this, I have the same watch, and learned the trick if how to get to UTC quickly.
It was really useful...thank you vermuch bro.....
No option to get the time display while using the stopwatch? Looking to buy this watch and this is an important aspect for me
Great tutorial! Learned something new about my watch.
Nice video! Do you know if they will release an "u" version to this model like the 5600u with a better module?
Very nice Overview!!! All points Covered!!! 😀
Excellent tutorial as always! Cheers:)
Are the buttons easier to press than on the GW-M5610 ??
Your video for this model is very good and helps.
Can I deactivate the Auto Receive function on this watch?

I wanted you show the watch displaying the time if another city.
What's your opinion about the fact that some gshocks can have the screen fogged and Casio considers this as a normal situatiion?
Can you tell me where to get hard case for gx 56
How do i turn the RCVD back on??
Hi, In my G SHOCK backside it is GX 56 with 3221, but it looks exactly the GXW 56. Can you please explain why is that. Thank you.
The Radio band is not exactly working for my gx 56 bb.
Wby?
What is the point of having a primary and secondary time zone?

How about 56 slg model?
Does any of these 6 towers cover souther hemisphere countries such as Australia?
No, BUT some people were able to catch the signal from the Japanese tower by using my amplifier method described in this video: th-cam.com/video/wI4FwQMCN9w/w-d-xo.html

what is A.EL above secondary
Automatic Backlight
Is there a way to set the brightness?
Sadly no
Finally got this one had the negative lcd red buttons for about 10 years but my screen fogs up on that model

sir im a big fan , i love ur way , but why you wont wear this watch ?? that's strange !!
It has all these features, but it doesn’t have a right stopwatch. If you are running, you need lap memory, so it keeps track of all your splits.

I just recently bought this watch. I wonder why I can’t initiate manual reception. I tried to hold the button for quite a while but nothing happened. Do you have any idea why is this happening?
Your home city is outside of the range of the towers, so the watch ignores that command
