Casio Men's DW5600MS-1CR G-Force Military Concept Black Digital Watch

I was looking for a G-Shock because I knew they were tough, waterproof (sorry, 'resistant') and dependable. I also knew that they were in many cases bulky and heavy. Coming across this watch I realised I could have a compromise, but I didn't fully appreciate how great a watch I was purchasing until it arrived.First of all, it looks even better than in the photos you'll find online. I have quite thin wrists, so a big watch looks out of place and slightly gaudy on me. The understated badassery of this watch is something that is best conveyed in person, so take the plunge! I'm a big fan of the minimalist design, and I really like the fact that this watch will never clash with anything I'm wearing. That makes it versatile, and an easy choice for any combination of clothes from gym wear to formal.The majority of negative reviews on this product are people whinging about not being able to see the time... If you have eyes in your head, you will have no issues reading the face. I like the fact that the face isn't viewable to others, to the point where the face looks all but blacked out from a distance. I also like that the numbers are light on dark, rather than vice-versa. The functionality isn't impaired at all, so don't be put off by complaints from a myopic few.I've never bothered to write a review for a product before, but I felt compelled to in this case just on the chance that there was someone still umming and ahhing about the watch. Buy this bad boy and try to go a day of wearing it (outside you hermit) without a compliment or a jealous glance!

My husband’s favorite watch. The only brand he will wear. It’s very durable and water proof, which is perfect with having kids. I highly recommend.

After reading many reviews i decided to purchase this watch. I read reviews on everything before I decide to pull the trigger and buy a product. This is the first review that I have ever written.I was researching g-shock watches and was having trouble finding one that had a smaller face. I can't stand the big faced watches that everyone wears now. This watch is the perfect size, not too big or too small. I have gotten a few compliments on how well the watch looks with the black-on-black look. This watch is nice enough to be worn for any occasion. As far as the negative about not being able to see the time at certain angles, I think its a non issue. If you want to see the time, then turn your wrist and the problem is solved. To me, its a complete no issue. The other problem that people had was that the buttons are hard to press. I will agree that they are harder to press than other watches, but again I think its a non issue. The strap is also very comfortable.The only negative I would have is that sometimes the screws on the back of the watch will catch some arm hair.I would buy this watch again in a heartbeat if I were to misplace this one.

Yeah, it's not the most legible display. Is it as bad as people make it seem? No. Should you buy this watch if you want to use it in high pressure situations where the time needs to be read without fail every time? No. Should you buy this watch if you want a sleek looking daily driver that's a notch higher in style than the standard DW5600 Casio? Absolutely. I barely take this thing off my wrist unless I'm dressing up an outfit. It's stealthy. It's fitting for smaller wrists like mine. I use the stopwatch and timer functions all the time. For the price? Such great value. 9/10.

G-Shock watches speak for themselves. My last G-shock unfortunately had a broken strap and since it was purchased in Japan, good luck with finding parts for it. I would agree with another reviewer that the "adjust" button is harder to press, but that's probably because Casio doesn't want you to accidentally hit that button. All the other 3 buttons protrude a bit more, and you don't have to use your nails to push down. The back lit is blue, and it's easy to read. Overall you can't complain about the build quality of the watch. The strap feels extremely comfortable, and the watch doesn't feel bulky at all. I have a pretty thin wrist and it fits me pretty well.

I've always wanted to add a G-Shock to my collection of watches, which primarily consists of automatics and handwind movements. I fell in love with the basic shape and size of this particular G-Shock, and the inverted display colors sealed the deal. As always it keeps great time since it uses the extremely dependable quartz movement, and has the durability that is expected from this line of Casio. I wear this watch with almost anything, and it always looks good. I definitely feel like this watch is a great bang for the buck. Also, the display is relatively easy to read...especially with the indiglo feature (which has a really cool glow to it).

This review is more for Shamazon and friends.I am about tired of Amazon and 3rd party sellers sending out open box products without buyers knowledge. Why?? My watch had dirt and smudges on it and did not come with a manual or Warranty card. Just the watch and a tin box.Casio: I mean the watch is good but minimal in feature. Still a solid 5600 model I'll keep because I LOVE Casio.However, these products I been buying, obviously returned and then redistributed, is loose-ended and absurd;Especially when you have no warranty info and documents for a "new" product. At least with other E-Commerce sites, the seller has the decency to inform customers about open box products. This is absurd.

This is my 2nd G-shock watch. I wore the last one for nearly 10 years straight. I got bored with it and tried to destroy it to justify buying this one. Impossible. You can't kill 'em.What i love about this one is the black face, the slim profile, the 24-hour military time format, and the built-in stopwatch.I can wear it with T-shirts and jeans. I can wear it with a dress shirt. And I always wear it to the gym.Hell, it's waterproof, so I could even wear it in the shower or pool if I forget to take it off.It's rugged and class, lightweight but indestructible. Perfect for the well-dressed gear nerd.

I was looking for a beater/everydy watch I could wear but still something that flew under the radar. This fit the bill pretty well. I liked that the negative display was red tinted, this was a nice touch that you don't see a lot on the other blacked out G-Shocks. On the topic of blacked out watches, another nice feature was that even the pushers and buckler were blacked out. The only thing that isn't is the caseback, which is fine since it rests on my wrist and is relatively unseen. Like many others say, the display is a little bit hard to read in direct sunlight and some lowlight settings. This is usually fixed by using the backlight.Overall, if you are looking for a G-Shock with military inspired feautures and looks this is a great watch to have. It's not very expensive but packs much value. It's running on a basic module so it only has time, date, timer and stopwatch. For what I need this is lore than I need but if you're looking for more features this won't have it.

Desde siempre me han gustado mucho los relojes pero nunca me había animado a iniciar una colección. Para ello decidí informarme en canales especializados en horología en español desde hace varias semanas en YouTube con expertos en la materia y todos hablan maravillas de los Casio G-Shock en términos de valor por el dinero. Son sinónimo de historia, son icónicos por su desarrollo y diseño, son los relojes mejor construidos para durar y para funcionar de acuerdo con la intención que fueron creados y sobre todo, en casos como este, no pagas un sobreprecio. Después de mucho investigar sobre los G-Shock 5600 decidí buscar una edición especial y estas son mis razones:1. El display negativo con números "rosas" Lo único que nunca me ha convencido de los relojes digitales es el display en color verde y los números azules, pues lo primero que se me viene a la mente es una pantalla de calculadora y para mí le quita atractivo. Esta versión militar, es cierto, no es taaan legible, pero tampoco quieres ir anunciado la hora como un marcador luminoso andante, así que para mí le da un atractivo por eso. Te da la sensación de un avión "stealth" o de un reloj para combate armado, cuando no tienes que brillar ni dar reflejos innecesarios. Realmente tienes la sensación de traer puesto un aditamento de combate.2. La construcción y el diseño. De entrada odio los relojes abultados que te hacen parecer que te amarraste un velocímetro de automóvil a la muñeca. De por sí mi muñeca es muy, muy pequeña, entonces tengo que buscar relojes del rango de los 42 mm para abajo de ancho. Este es de 43mm, se pasa un poco del límite, pero su forma octagonal oculta el largo y el ancho y no desentona en mi muñeca. Color negro con algunos detalles dorados (mate, no brillantes) para no fallar nunca y poderlo usar con la mayoría de los atuendos deportivos, de camping, rockeros, informales, casuales y casuales de oficina cuando el código es lo suficientemente relajado. Perfecto para viajar y para exteriores. Te lo pones y te olvidas que lo traes puesto llueve, haga viento, frío, calor o lo que sea. En la muñeca no se siente ligero, pero tampoco pesa demasiado. La correa es de silicona negra y realmente es cómoda, de buena calidad y tiene el broche inferior de material metálico.3. Acabados. En mi Ciudad de México no debes de llamar la atención por las razones equivocadas. Este reloj no brilla, el acabado es mate y no "grita" cuánto dinero te costó realmente. Por lo contrario, es bastante discreto, aunque de ningún modo luce barato. De hecho guarda cierta similitud con algunos smartwatches que he visto en la calle.4. Marca e historia. De lo poco que he estado investigando es que el mundo de los relojes Casio es una de las marcas más respetadas, icónicas y que no buscan parecerse a nadie. Varios de sus relojes son clásicos del diseño contemporáneo y de la innovación tecnológica, y en el caso de Casio y de este tipo de G-Shock octagonales, se trata de los primeros modelos desarrollados para los astronautas de la NASA en misiones espaciales, así que tienes una pieza que no es para tenerla guardada y siempre pulida y como nueva, sino que es como un buen Jeep. Son para usarse, ensuciarse, divertirse, salir, acampar, trabajar y usar día tras día y dejarle cicatrices de tu vida diaria y que cuenten una historia para que lo heredes a tus sucesores. Y de hecho, estos relojes están construidos para que te sobrevivan.Estas fueron mis razones para elegir el G-Shock DW5600MS-1CR y cumple cabalmente cada uno de los puntos. Ya en mi experiencia particular con la pieza que me enviaron y con esta compra en específico, detallo:1. El artículo llegó en tiempo exacto tal y como estaba programado desde Estados Unidos hasta México, aún a pesar de las complicaciones por el Coronavirus.2. La caja como pueden ver en la primera imagen, sí llega golpeada. La caja es barata (se ve que ahí es donde la marca ahorra costos para poder ofrecer productos a buen precio) y no protege en absoluto al reloj, así que por esta vez no me preocupa, después de todo, pedí al bull-dozer del los relojes... pero con otros modelos de Casio sí me preocuparía al punto de pensármelo dos veces y devolverlo por algún problema a futuro por golpes fuertes. El reloj viene funcionando de fábrica y con la hora exacta en el huso horario local del vendedor.3. Este reloj es extremadamente fácil e intuitivo de usar. Si nunca has tenido un Casio o ya no te acuerdas, basta una hojeada rápida al manual para familiarizarte con los botones y funciones y listo. Este modelo en particular es muy básico, sólo tiene la hora (en un único huso horario), fecha completa con día, mes y año; alarma, cronómetro, cronómetro regresivo y retroiluminación de pantalla en color verde (muy atractiva, de fábrica sólo se ve por un segundo pero puedes configurarla para que dure hasta 3 seg).En resumen:LO MEJOR:*Gran valor por el dinero*Factor de relativa "exclusividad" por la edición especial. Los conocedores te lo van a alabar.*Discreción para uso diario. Perfecto para andar en transporte público y en la calle sin farolear ni llamar la atención de los rateros.*Durabilidad para uso rudo de verdad*Diseño icónico y acabados discretos, pero no baratos.*Versatilidad. Prácticamente se puede usar para todo menos para códigos formales de vestimenta.* Tamaño perfecto para muñecas pequeñas como las mías: Te da ese toque masculino sin que parezca que te pusiste el reloj de tu hermano grande o de tu papá.LO MALO:*El display negativo con tono rosa tenue no es para todos. Muchos se van a quejar de la legibilidad, pero para mí se ve perfecto en toda situación. Creo que los que se quejan es porque están acostumbrados a ver la hora en el celular. Y si necesitas eso, aprieta el botón de retroiluminación y problema resuelto.*Para algunos este puede ser un reloj demasiado sencillo para su look. No tiene ninguna función fancy ni super avanzada, no es ningún gadget moderno. Pero para mí es justo su encanto.¿LO RECOMIENDO?A ojos cerrados. Para que sea tu único reloj de por vida, o el inicio de una colección en la que podrás tener relojes baratos, caros, sencillos, complejos, de moda, retro, de lujo y de recontralujo, pero este casi seguro se va a volver tu favorito.

レッドアイ、どうかなぁと思いましたがめちゃくちゃかっこいいです

Los acabados en color mate mas q perfectos, evitan destellos que puedan revelar tu posición, comodo...discreto...

I had this watch on my wish list for nearly a year - it was well worth the wait!It is a superb military style watch with a suitable red colored display, my only complaint is it is tricky to read unless you’re staring right at it in full light, but this is a minor concern really. Also it would’ve been ideal had the backlight been red instead of blue.Overall I am extremely satisfied with this watch, and it absolutely recommend it to anyone seeking a military themed watch!
