I just bought a GBD 200(blue). Best screen, lovely strap. Loads of functions I'll never use but looks SO good. Bought in the g shock store in Carnaby St. Excellent shop with excellent staff.

I bought my 5610U this week after going down a rabbit hole of Casio vids and forums. (It initially started as me hunting for a Casio for my nephew… ended up me buying a g-shock for myself 😂). I really do see the benefits of the strap and premium nature of the 5000U, but I think the face and price point of the 5610U makes it a better buy for the likes of me. I’ve also gone down the route of buying some bull bars, a grey bezel and strap for a D5600P-8. I’ve seen this grey mod for it online and think it looks so amazing! I’ve also bought myself a nice little combi bracelet for when I wanna keep the black bezel. Have you tried many mods on yours? Would be great to see a mod vid and a gift guide for youngsters (who haven’t been lured by smart watches already). Cheers for the great content

Just spent almost 3 hours cleaning one of my three GW-B5600s and it feels like a new watch. I've been very happy with it for an hour but after seeing this video I want the JDM model. So cheers mate, very successful influencing.

Wow. What timing with this video. I have the dw-5600 and the gw-5000 and I have considered only keeping one of them! The gw-5000 is definitely the premium version, but the 5600 wears lighter I found. Both are awesome watches I'll probably end up keeping both. Great video thanks.

I ordered mine straight from Japan ($$$ 😢) and did a short 'Unboxing' video for this watch back in '21. Out of the 9 G-Shock's I currently own, the GW-5000U-1JF has been the only one I wear continuously due to its style & versatility. Definitely the best watch I own and wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking to add another G to their collection 👍

Thank you, for finally going over my square. Got one as soon as it came out and if there is another square I wear besides my speed square from 93, I wear this one. They need to o back to screw down square back on all squares, 6900s, and bring back 6600s. Also, the rubber is premium compared to the other squares. Soft and supple yet still tough. Mine is older so it does not have that light issue. The digits are much sharper as well.

I had been wanting one for years and finally took the plunge last year when it became available in the UK. It’s the best Square and I love it. You can feel the quality is there. The heftier case and the supple band makes you realise it’s not your typical Square. I’m wearing it as I type :)

I have the GW5000 band and bezel on my DW5600e. Indeed the band is softer and more comfortable, but with use it does become shiny over time. The bezel compared to the 5600e bezel is a deeper black and the text is sharper looking. Also inside the bezel is apparent the 5600e is just molded while the GW5000 bezel has some other manufacturing process going on as it looks completely different.

It’s funny you know….I purchased this watch out of Japan a couple of months ago, yes it’s feels good on wrist but always in the back of my mind I kept thinking maybe I’d spent too much money for it. Then rusty comes along on the MWC show and says it’s the best square out there and I go yep, knew it was a great buy!

I've worn a gd-350 pretty much every day for the past 8+ years for work. I cook for a living and as you can imagine, my gd-350 has seen some stuff. Water, food, blood, heat. All of it. It has that same style "4 screw" case back and I can't imagine "needing" it to be any more tough. It has developed that beautifully well loved high polished resin finish along with countless dings and scratches. It just always does what it's supposed to do. And the vibrating alarm is irreplaceable. All of that being said, I desperately want a metal g square so that I can beat it up and give it all of the dings and scratches it deserves. Kind of like a better way to document my story than the resin.👍👍

Hey Mr. MWC, I'm a big fan...keep up the good work. It's pretty cool to see the 5000U get a little attention. I stumbled upon it a couple years ago when I was just getting into watches, and still have mine. It doesn't get a lot of attention though, because I have a titanium virtual armor (the actual "best g-shock square") and it's phenomenal. The 5000U is probably the best resin square though, I wouldn't argue that!

Amazing…MWC can guess the watch I have on, my beloved 5610. Hilarious resin strap face there for a bit. I was hoping for Mr. Pagani, but I know he must be very busy. Same here on wanting the JDM versions, but can’t find any gripes about my daily Thailand 5610. I do think the screw case back is an upgrade along with the better strap and seems closer to the original. My daughter wants the 5610 for her 11th birthday and she will be getting it to add to the first watch in her collection the F91w. Isn’t it great how our wives can bring us back to reality so quickly, hilarious MWC wife review, I feel your pain brother. I’ve been looking into either this 5600, or the all black negative display recently. Stoked I’ve got an Oceanus S100 on the way, a titaniumtastic JDM stunna imho. Thanks for the great review MWC!

Very kind my friend thank you!!!!

I bought one as a Christmas present to myself. Your review is spot on. It is the best g shock in my opinion.

I have the previous version of this watch, the GW-5000 with module 3159. The metal inner case and polished DLC screwdown caseback are nice and the softer resin band is comfortable, but a few years in my band ended up ripping clean off the watch right at the lug bar. Not sure what happened, but I didn't really treat it too differently than my 5600e and that watch's strap was fine. I still have the 5000 today and after digging it out of a drawer I charged it up and it still syncs with WWVB fine. I'll eventually get a new strap and bezel for it, but at this time I honestly prefer the lighter weight and look of my 5610u. Modern plastic cased G-Shocks are plenty tough enough for me. After all, it was a plastic cased DW-5600e that set a Guinness Book world record after being run over by a 24.97 tone truck. Great video as always. Keep it up!

I’ve seen many episodes of your show. I really enjoy them all.

So, please put links in the description, even if you don’t get a commission for your time. The community will love you for it.

I bought the Japanese version made in Japan. A bit costly, but in my mind it is worth the extra cost. I had to import it to Canada from a Japanese dealer. The U series is the most updated at this time. It is light and small. Very comfortable and it is tough.

Great vid as always! It is a lovely watch (timepiece and content) but there are other options for those who have smaller wrists and want some G-shock vibes 😅

love my gw5000 as well as the most basic model also shown here. they get equal wristtime when I'm in gshock mood.

Own this amd the 5610 and I have to say its probably one of my best watches. I cant stop wearing it. It just feels so confident on the wrist, knowing nothing can stop this one :)

The updated module is not to be sniffed at! Firstly, losing the el.backlight and substituting with an LED uses much less battery power, and by losing the electro-luminescent film in the display 'sandwich' the display sits closer to the crystal, giving a crisper look and fewer internal reflections. Secondly, the updated module means that the time is still displayed in the top-right corner when using the countdown or stopwatch timers. I REALLY like that, and it is a really practical feature. Thirdly, the day/date can be formatted to european display (with day then date) I am seriously thinking of getting this watch. I see that lack of colour as being a plus, making it look more of a 'serious' watch. One downside (maybe I'm wrong here) is that it appears to be very difficult to get a genuine replacement supple-strap.

I own both. The GW has a more legible display, softer + premium resin, satin/matte buckle, all made in Japan markings everywhere, feels overall more like a special, neutral every day watch. The anniversary in comparison feels more bold and unique, a balance of rugged and jewelry, more colour + design with the brick and project team tough. Even though it comes with the gold buckle I prefer it on a combi bracelet (although the combi does scratch that beautiful caseback, so be warned). Accuracy + battery life on the 35 really debunks the need for solar atomic in the GW honestly. I just have both cuz I like them both - I prefer the GW for every day/winter cause of the neutral tones, whereas I like the 35 for summer/when I'm in a bit of a mood/ special occasions.

I love this type of back cover but In my opinion with this type of back cover the watch should be more water resistant than with regular back cover with 4 screws. At least 300M instead of 200M

For the last 8 years the GWM5610U is my go to watch for everyday .. I have a G-Shock Steel also .. :)

Hi Russ. Love it. It would look nice with bars on. All the best.👍🏾🇬🇧😉

Which one to choose: this one or the same with the negative display?

My DW 5600 E is paid for. I like it where the numerals light up.

I love my G Shocks and Casio watches generally. Were all kids at heart Mrs Madman. Embrace your husband's youthfulness and taste in all things G Shock 😅 Great review. I will wait till the hype passes and then by one...

i'm excited for the new G-SHOCK G-SQUAD GBD-H2000-2JR. if i can turn the bio sensors and GPS off until i might want to use them i think you'll be able to run it pure solar. if you can im sold on my first smart-ish watch.

yessss love my gw5000u. it is a bit spenny and probably not worth the extra ££, but it's ace. my 3 complaints are the buttons are too small, whatttt no sapphire??, and the backlight hotspot. otherwise amazing.

1🇯🇵🇯🇵% I can vouch: the JDM models are better, even if it is in an unquantifiable way. Russ nailed it in this post. I felt a bit odd paying 200.00 USD+ for an imported G-shock square, 3x the cost of a 5600E on AMZN and with less nostalgic color & text. I then immediately got thirsty to re-up with another as soon as I got mine on-wrist. The upgraded strap is softer, the display is clearer (like all the 3495 Modules? Maybe, but I think this one's better) and the beefy screw down, laser-etched caseback (and steel core) gives the watch a pleasant heft. It's a secret handshake for watch enthusiasts: Shows you care but does so in an unassuming, no-flash way. To opposite of modern Invictas. Stealth wealth. ⭐IF YA KNOW, YA KNOW⭐ (aka game recognize game) If you're on the fence, GET ONE NOW and "justify" the cost of it later, once you're honeymooning. 💯

Yaaaasss! I knew it was only a matter of time before you picked up a 5000u

I own both and love the 5610 because it is so light. And I love the 5000 because it is heavy. Options for my changing mood.

Got one too it’s an epic watch especially with the DLC it’s really the ultimate square G Shock.

Are these still being produced? I see on the U.S. website it says "Notify Me." I'm wondering if these are out of stock permanently.

Mine is coming soon ! Tomorrow or Monday! I was right for your tease ^^

A great review as ever. Now you need to go and buy the GW-S5600 just to confuse the wife even more abd get the comment "So now you've bought a lighter kids watch?!"

Dear community. Can I ask does the 5000u have an auto repeat countdown timer?

I’ve just ordered a GLX-5600 just like the one you showed at the end of the video, 😅.
