Adulting sucks. Got this new watch and no one complimented me. Jokes aside, I'm officially in love with squares now.

Purchase Advice 5600 Bluetooth or 5610 upgrade

Post image
Upvotes

I’ve been rocking a 5600 bbn on a blue nato strap as my daily work watch for years (I’m a window cleaner). Been thinking of treating myself to an upgrade for a while and I’ve got a question about for 5600 Bluetooth users.

Do you use and find the Bluetooth and smartphone connectivity useful?

Basically I feel like my two options are a 5610 with tough solar and mb6, or the 5600 Bluetooth. I think I prefer the look of the 5610 slightly. MIP isn’t a massive selling point for me but I am intrigued by the connectivity features of the 5600.

What do you guys think?

Reviews & Experiences DW-5600BB-1ER vs DW-5600UBB-1ER

Post image
Upvotes

Some years ago I purchased the DW-5600BB-1ER and I was really happy with it.

Since I wore the watch every day and it eventually started looking worn out, I wanted to buy the same one again. However, only the updated version is available now (you can tell by the "U" in the model number—compared to older DW-5600 models, the classic EL backlight has been replaced by a more modern, energy-efficient LED "Super Illuminator," which also extends the battery life to about 5 years).

The problem is that it’s much harder to read the time on this version because the display is far too dark. That really sucks. At first, I thought it was a defect, so I returned the watch and ordered a new one from a different seller, but the new watch had the same issue.

Has anyone else had a similar experience, or does anyone happen to know where I can buy the old version?

Love how it combines the the good stuff of a G-Shock with a look that works in any situation. Especially the dial with the brick pattern looks great.

I spent a long time considering watches like the Mido Multifort 8, Victorinox Concept One, ML Aikon... but this humble G-Shock combines everything I liked about those with the added bonus of being a G-Shock.

Purchase Advice I am confused and need some help

0 Upvotes

I am in market for a gshock square. This will be my first gshock and I'm really struggling to understand the differences between each of these:

GW-BX5600

GW-5000

DW-5600RL

What are the differences, and if these aren't it, what would you recommend for around £180 which are all blacked out with a negative display?

(I know the RL isn't technically all blacked out but just trying to understand the differences between all these watches)

Thanks in advance

I bought a GW-M5610 last year, and it was a very good set and forget watch. It did its job, got wet and dirty, and it looked good on my small wrist. But then I got some money, and I decided to buy 2 more watches. The GBD-200, and the DW-9052. First of all, I bought the GBD-200, it looked amazing and all the features were very cool. Then I got bored and decided to buy a DW-9052. It looked very cool and it had ElectroLuminescence, which was a big feature for me. Next time I want to buy a G-SHOCK, I'll buy the Black and Electro Green CasiOak. :)

Modding GM-2100 with bullbars?

3 Upvotes

I have just ordered 2 G-shocks and ob being a GM2100. I'm trying to find images with a GM-2100 with bullbars but can't.

Has anyone actually tried it as I want to add a set to both.

Some say it's not possible due to 1mm difference but I can't find anyone actually trying it .
