You get a balance of bullitproof and watch , if there is less visibility because of the face depth then thats why the face is safe from any hits . I use this watch everyday at work and solid build
Sorry Ryan,disagree on many points here, one of which is case design in comparo to your oft mentioned GD- 350 which I found to be rather cumbersome nu 1,and anything with wrist wings is a non-starter.the fabric strap was taken off mine and re-fitted with a nice after market velcro strap thus no need for jays and kays strap adapters.since I have been collecting G-Shocks since 1984 I believe in the KISS theory(keep it simple stupid)I do however have several atomic/solar multiple timezone G,s that can tell what the time is in Moscow if I feel like it but highly unlikely.having owned 1000.00 JDM frogmans and models all the way down to a casio F-105 I get the same admiration for the company in general no matter the model.however the company ethos started with basic and like Seiko with the SKX line of entry lever divers that is where the sweet spot lies. yes the iconic 5600 does have a clutter free display, but this iditeration on this variation on the 9052 is also a classic like the basic DW-6900.the colorways are more subdued with white text,and the case design harkens back to the DW-9000.the 9052 on velcro would easily and is an EDC wat h for me.
the "red" model came with the resin band.. very comfortable to wear. simple and stable watch. i would have liked if u could set the the light duration to 5 sec.. like some of the older g shocks.
This is one of the best G-Shocks because the nylon band, it's more confortable than what's included in 99% of other G-Shocks, this alone put this one among the top.
I agree that this is a great watch, my brother has one he bought in 2003, he's put the watch through hell and in the ocean and everything (of course you need to rinse it with fresh water afterwards so the salt doesn't damage the watch), and the watch module still works perfectly However you can add the nylon straps to pretty much any g shock with a converter, which I believe casio sells too along with the strap. So I don't consider that as a point that determines if the watch per se is good
@@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess IMO a watch that includes better straps with no need for adapters and no extra cost is definitely better than a watch with uncomfortable straps. This ones also happens to be cheaper than most of G-Shocks, including most essential features, an extraordinary model at least for me.
This watch is absolutely not subpar 😂 i can actually attest to that This watch has been in fire and water and dropped multiple times on rocks and stuff and it's still ticking 😂 this is the greatest watch ever made
I appreciate the review! Every review is bias (they have to be) but I like that you stated what you prefer and compared to that to give some perspective to your opinions. My one problem is that you are reviewing and incomplete watch. The stock/new DW9052V-1CR came with the grey lug type things that go underneath and cover the screws for the back. They aren't cosmetic, they are meant to make it more comfortable, plus the screws do add stability to the outer case. They also change the look quite a bit. Not a deal breaker but I did find it strange to review a watch with missing pieces. Cheers
Nice. Thank you for the review. I'm about to buy a DW9052-1BCG tho. I previously had one. I broke the band playing football and lost my first one. I liked the video but I feel your videos kinda run a bit long but I still enjoy them.
Must disagree with you in this. I have two G Shocks. The DE 5600E, and the DW 9052. I love both and both are great watches. But, when I’m cutting trees and working my property, the DW 9052 is on my wrist, because, quite simply, it’s a beast!
It’s the perfect g shock: Everything you need, and nothing you don’t.
i don't really need those animations in the middle of the display

Those are not "cosmetic" screws. The screws hold the shock absorber pads which are missing on this particular model.
the "red" model came with the resin band..
very comfortable to wear.

Just got one for 5 dollars from Walmart 😅 it is comfortable imo

@@dubjon5134 True that makes sense, most watches I buy are second hand so I'm used to replace bands and mix match different g shocks
Agreed. Extremely comfortable!

Does a digital watch ticks

I picked one up today at Wal-Mart. It’s in a rubber strap! Clearance price was $25!!!
Dale Taylor Jr. that's a steal

Many of the old g shock watches in the 90's have the same band, nylon band is toupher than the resin

You broke a G shock? Wtf!???
It's a fake one actually 😂

Does the light stay on when pressed?
Excellent review. What's the battery🔋 life of it?
7 years
메뉴얼에는 2년이라 되어 있으나.
사용자에 따라서 7년도 사용가능한가봅니다.

Worst reviewer.. this watch is good and my all day banger..
For real, he is the worst
The GD-350 Is 2 BIG 4 ME lol
Nice watch but you got it all beat on the back piece is missing the screws on the top of missing stolen ice watch
Great lord, built 'the HAND watch' WTF!
Dw 5600 is the basic model.
C00l 👍
To use it in the water just replace the band for a rubber one
