No 1 G-Shock DW-H5600
The G-Shock DW-H5600 is Casio’s most complete, most wearable, and probably most anticipated connected fitness watch yet. It ticks all the right feature boxes on paper, with no risk of its design alienating hardcore G-Shock fans in the way the challenging GSW-H1000 touchscreen smartwatch did, and is svelte enough to fit on most wrist sizes. It’s the G-Shock fitness watch we’ve been waiting for.
The DW-H5600, which hasn’t really altered since the original model was released in the 1990s, is referred to as a “square” in the world of G-Shock watches, despite the fact that it isn’t. It is also perhaps the most well-known of the G-Shock designs.
It weighs just 59 grams and is 51 x 44 x 17 mm, making it slimline for a G-Shock. Because it mostly avoids the large button guards, tank-like design, and enormous girth that put off anybody who doesn’t enjoy wrist-dominating watches, it’s the G-Shock for those who detest G-Shocks. It’s still a proper G-Shock watch though, so it is shock resistant, vibration resistant, and water resistant to 200 meters, and you really will have to work very hard to destroy it.
This is all part of every G-Shock’s appeal, but where the H5600 differs from most other square models is the heart rate sensor on the back. The stainless steel case back is dominated by the protruding sensor array, which measures heart rate and blood oxygen levels, but it never feels anything other than supremely comfy to wear. I also love the new bio-based resin material for the strap, which is softer and more pliable than older G-Shock straps.
