Casio G Shock MULTIBAND 6 GW-5000-1JF Mens Watch Radio Tough Solar [Japan Import]

Product Information

The tones for using the pushers can be turned on or off while keeping the tones for alarms and timer active. If you encounter problems finding the proper settings, it is either time to get the manual out of the box, or – better yet – install the G-Shock app on your iPhone. It is a perfect watch to wear when I don’t want to risk losing or damaging my precious mechanical watches, go swimming (200 meters), visit places that are somewhat dangerous for wearing expensive things, etc. By accepting all cookies, you agree to our use of cookies to deliver and maintain our services and site, improve the quality of Reddit, personalize Reddit content and advertising, and measure the effectiveness of advertising.

The above pros are what’s got me interested in switching, the GW5000 is the perfect G Shock for me, everything I need in a beater watch and nothing I don’t.

I was also curious about the Bluetooth function, so you can configure and correct the watch using an app on your smartphone.

It will be my fourth 5000, all previously and regretfully sold due to a mix of failing eyesight and dial readability. Kobayashi has been plenty generous in letting us use his photos for JDM watches that we can’t get pictures of ourselves.

Its extra-large size gives it even more protection than a typical G-Shock, and it is one of the toughest G-Shock models ever made. BUT, the resin used on the GW-5000 is far better than what’s on the 5610, it’s more supple and comfortable. Well, I think I reached the phase when I acknowledge that there is a place for a G-Shock in my collection.
