  • Comparison of 2 very nice square G-Socks. Both have useful features missing from the other one. The GW-M5610 has more features and it's more expensive, but it lacks one very important thing the DW-5600 offers: showing the current time on the stopwatch and timer displays! You have to decide what's more important for you... or just get both ;) Or get the Bluetooth square, which is not in this video, but it has all the features from both watches, plus more.
    Bullbars (wire guards) are from jaysandkays from ebay.

    Thanks for sharing your experience with both watches, you have helped me make up my mind as to the watch I will be buying, for me simplicity wins out over the the more complicated solar casio 👍

    They're not the same size. I love the basic 5600. Now I'm getting a bull bar for it

      The bull bars are EXCELLENT.........i got my first one on my g shock army green on amazon. The bars come in many colors, stainless and multi color etc...........No scratches or anything with these guards in place and my co workers say is the toughest watch ever!

      The 5610 is slightly wider from end to end, but sits lower than 5600. The 5600 is slightly thicker with longer lug housing. So if you have larger wrists, go with 5600. If you have smaller wrists, go with 5610. The 5610 wraps around the wrist with a more form fit.

    And for $20 you can get the Casio W-800H which has a superior module/screen to both of these. (Once you spend 10 min. and do the easy mod to activate the timer feature).

      I have owned two of them and think they are boring and soulless. G-Shocks blow them out of the water.

      W800 is a very good affordable watch with all the information you need on screen and a 10 yr battery life. If only the strap was better and you didn't have to change it every year. Mine gets destroyed after the summer months because of the sea salt. And I wash it everyday.

      DW5600 is noticably better in that. Much clearer and much better viewing angles.

    I just bought the GW-M5610 now I wish I had seen this video before 😫 the major problem for me is the alarm volume is too low
    Also I love the backlight on older modules something nostalgic about it

    Some would argue that it's better to have the starting time displayed in the countdown timer rather than the time of day. I go back and forth on that one.

    • @engineercave007
      @engineercave007  8 месяцев назад

      It's a G-Shock. It doesn't need no screen protector. IMHO. The screen on the non-solar is noticably clearer and crisper.
