Casio G-Shock GW-M5610U-1 Men's Solar Black Resin Sport Watch

This was purchased to replace a solar atomic Casio G-Shock I wore 24/7 for 15+ years that still works with the original battery! >> These are awesome watches because they’re super-accurate, thanks to the atomic signal timekeeping, and you don’t need to replace the batteries (solar charging). >> Out of the box it was set to the exact second and date. You never have to touch the time, as it’s synchronized to the atomic radio time signal. It only needs to be set on/off for daylight savings time. >> This is a solid looking watch, but it’s thin enough to fit under my button sleeve work shirts. It’s easy to read and has a fairly clean face, without the tiny, hard to read info-function circles of my last G shock. G-Shocks are perfect for active people who want to wear one watch and never take it off during work, sleep, showering, swimming, or play. G-Shocks take a beating and just keep performing. I never wear anything else.

Great watch! Simple design, solar-powered, and reliable. Only has one con: the automatic time adjustment works only when you wear it; if it’s off your wrist, it doesn’t adjust. Everything else is perfect — comfortable, stylish, and easy to use. Good for value of money, colors i like it, very light to wear, overall i am giving 5 star, i am so satisfied of quality.

Outstanding product. I'm 3 years in. It's the best watch for me. I wanted something that would just tell me the accurate time and live forever. The solar power is amazing, the battery takes such little energy to operate that in my experience you don't really need to purposely let it charge. It just does it on its own over time provided you spend at least some time in the sun. The radio time calibration works well, although you do need to place it in a spot where the radio waves won't get blocked. I occasionally place it on my thick desk and it doesn't always calibrate when I do that. But that's no big deal. There's minimal time drift with this watch, as long as your watch catches the radio signal at least once every couple weeks your time will stay very accurate. This is exactly what I was looking for: no frills, just a durable, accurate, lasts-pretty-much-forever kind of watch. Very satisfied 3 years in, it still looks pretty much the same as when I bought it.

It's a G-Shock... nuff said. OK... I'll give some more content to back that up. It is rugged, good looking, designed and built well and reliable. It lives up to what it promises. I've had zero issues with this watch and it's highly recommended. I have a 7.25" wrist and this fits me great.

This model of G Shock is fantastic if you collect these Square models or want your first one, the look is criticized by some, the red stripe is meant to harken back to the original Square G Shock, some people dont like the look of the watch - but everything about this watch is fuctional....so that is that....its not really a watch for fashion type Casio people...this is a great EDC type of piece, a "one watch" piece more or less....I had standard model G Shock like this back in the 80's/ early 90's, primarily why I wanted this. I would probably say start out with the DW-5600 entry version if you have never had a Casio of this type before and want to get into one - its simpler, has the main features you need and nothing more, and its half the price on average of this Solar/ Atomic syncing model. But I am glad I got this version....If I had to grab one watch and only one....this would be the one - main reason - its slim but durable, light, and the solar battery means zero issues, water resistant for most average circumstances - example - you are going on a long trip, world travel, backpacking...this is a good solution...you just dont have to worry about it failing, running out of battery, etc. So, its is kind of worth the extra cost for the peace of mind, you will always have a watch. The World Time feature is great for travel - its always good to be able to track your home time or target destination time for planning and communicating with others back home, or for calling ahead to other destinations - you have to know business hours, best time to call etc....its a convenience thing - the watch has many time zones built in - so you just have to scroll thru and choose your 2nd time zone. The Multiband 6 (Atomic clock sync) is great - you know exactly what time it is...as long as you are synced up with a local frequency - the user manual talks alot about this topic - but you still can adjust the time manually - but once you are synced, the watch is supposed to be +- 15 seconds per month - better than most watches you could spend hundreds or thousands on. The watch attempts to sync up automatically each night....if you are within one of the 6 radio frequency ranges. The alarm is not that loud, but its functional. The countdown timer and stopwatch are there if you need those...standard more or less. Overall, this is a really intelligent purchase item, a great "one watch" if you just want a replacement timepiece and want one that does pretty much all you need a watch to do...and a little more. For G Shock collectors, you pretty much have to have a variation of this watch - its a classic. One nice detail also - the case back looks like a machined piece as opposed to stamped metal like the cheaper model and many other Casio models. The watch is slimmer and smaller than I expected - its understated and relatively compact compared to other large more recent Casio designs.....but, again, this is not a trendy bulky piece. Summary - if you are a world traveler, this watch would be a great choice. Or, if you want just one watch to serve you for the next several years, you wont need much more than this model of G Shock - you wont need a battery change for probably 10 years, maybe more....the one thing the manual does say and I dont see anyone talking about anywhere, if you are using the watch in water alot - you need to have it checked by a Casio approved technician/ shop every few years for seal replacement to ensure water resistance - the gaskets/ seals can wear out over time - I am sure this holds true for any G Shock or watch of this type.

I've had mine for over three years now. It just works. I don't have a problem with buying inexpensive watches, but when the time comes to change the battery, they usually break on me. I decided enough was enough and I wanted one that would be solar and atomic powered, so I wouldn't have to worry about batteries or time drifting. This is perfect for my needs. It's tough, water resistant, and solar and atomic powered. I don't need anything else. I don't want a smart watch; one more thing to baby and charge frequently. I also occasionally go to places where smart watches aren't allowed, so that would be a hassle. The price is exceedingly reasonable and has dropped a bit since I bought mine. If you just want a dependable watch that gives you the necessities and doesn't break the bank, this is it.

First of all the design, fit and finish of the watch is perfect. The dimensions are perfect and it is comfortable and light enough to never be tiring to wear. As soon as you take a close look at the watch you will see what a high quality piece this is. That's just the start, the atomic time keeping feature is just incredible. Always accurate to the absolute second. 5 world time settings, calander, automatic daylight savings function, alarm, stop watch, timer and more super useful functions. Don't hesitate to pull the trigger on this watch, it's truly the last and only watch you will ever need as well as simply a great addition to even the most high end watch collection full of high end automatics and tourbillons. I have many casios and g shocks, including the famous casio-oak ga-2100 which was my favorite watch until now this watch takes the cake. Lastly I did not buy brand new as the price as increased significantly in the last 2 months so I bought from the warehouse deals at a much cheaper price and it was still in perfect condition just an open package. So don't be afraid to order from those options since you can always return it if it's not in acceptable condition. In final it's true what everyone says these watches are truly God tier from the cheap 39.99 casios to the gorgeous casio-oak and g shock squares plus the bigger and bulkier g shocks. 5 stars. 10/10. I hope this review helps makes some people's decision to purchase much easier.

I really like the classic look. Extremely comfortable on the wrist and not ridiculously big looking. Very easy to read time and date. Very tough robust watch as well. I went for this solar version so I don't need to worry about battery replacement followed by expensive pressure testing.

I had the basic DW5600 REC-9 (yellow) but l somehow felt it lacked features like the solar charging or multiple world time capabilities. Hence after some research got this beast. Love the size, features and even quality. For instance the band is so much softer and premium feeling than the regular DW5600 series. However I missed the pop colour of my DW series and hence got some red bands which complement the red highlight in the display. One thing I would like to highlight that this is the updated GW-M5610U with the new 3495 module and white LED. I got this thinking it was the older module as I love the old Green EL backlight, however it is what it is and makes my DW still makes its case for a spot in my collection. Overall it’s a great buy and a must have G-Shock square for any watch enthusiasts or G-Shock collector.

シンプルなデザインで表示が見やすいです。電波受信は北向きの部屋では少々不安定でしたが、南向きの窓際では問題ありません。（札幌在住）時計の厚みが他のＧ-SHOCKに比べ薄めなので装着感も良いと感じます。 時間の正確さ、ソーラーパワー、タフな性能で大満足です。

Robusto, com bom design, leve e eficiente.
