Who Needs Rolex? G-Shock Solar G-5600 Review

Ойын-сауық

As a Rolex man, I find it hard to wear anything other than my Submariner. But I also appreciate beauty, classic design, and toughness. So wearing this G-Shock is a dream next to my Sub, and I think any collection including watches from brands like Rolex, Omega, Patek Phillipe, Vacheron Constantin, Cartier, Audemars Piguet, and even Richard Mille, can also include this G-5600E.

    Buying Rolex, 90% of time it's inside a safety display box. Buying gshock, 90% of time it's on the wrist

    Im using g5600e for more than five years. Its perfect with my field of works. I drop, submerged with water, even used on dusty environment without any issue. I just send it on service center recently to changed glass due to welding sparks that make the glass ugly. Im satisfied with this watch theres also an option if you want to mod it to metal g theres available kit that you can use

    Just buy the full metal square and you have a watch that is built like a Rolex, weighs the same as a Rolex, and has Bluetooth, Multiband 6, Solar, and is truly set and forget and just wear it forever. A couple of additional benefits are that the buttons are slightly bigger and easier to use and the calendar can be set to display the date in European format.

    Fortunately, I only like digital watches and the G-Shock 5000 series are my "collectables". The G-5600UE, is my daily beater and it's a great watch for the price. The solar charging was the selling point.

    I watched a video from a real special forces guy who said when he switched the battery on several Casio watches they always fogged up-losing water resistance. I use the atomic clock feature on my Casio’s to set my mechanical watches-solar is the way to go 😎!

    I bought Casio G-Shock G5600 E solar powered. Too Bad. But it is really bad at water resistance. After purchasing Within 3 or 4 months of normal usage NO EXTREME SPORTS, NO SWIMMING, NO DIVING, it had fog and water vapour inside obstructing the time view. Too bad. It did not have any good quality water proofing mechanism. It's having water droplets again inside the glass even after repair from Casio service center. Really Disappointed with Casio G-Shock. Pathetic quality.
