Casio Men Digital Quartz Watch with Plastic Strap Black

Product Information

Also the GW5000 case is larger (DW5600 size) and sits higher off the wrist because of the screwback itself, you might be surprised how different it feels compared to your old GWM5610. That said, it would seem a module designation only refers to the time keeping aspect (if we were referring to mechanical watches, that would mean the amount of “complications”). This allows for models featuring the same module to vary in other aspects that are not strictly timekeeping related, like Bluetooth connectivity or short text reminders.

Time in all modes is what makes it for me - and it could be an ‘only G’ if I didn’t have about 40 others too! This model is based on the design of the original G-Shock DW-5000C, which was the first-ever G-Shock released in 1983. That’s why it was a Japan-only model for so long, but there was a lot of demand for it outside of Japan. In the past, the “end of production” status appeared to apply globally to all markets, but it’s uncertain how the discontinuation of the GW-M5610-1JF will affect the status of the GWM5610-1 in the U.

The GMW-5000U-1 is easier to carry with me than the GMW-B5000-G1, which is still a little top-heavy on me despite the retrofitted steel strap. Update: The GW-5000-1JF, GW-M5610BC-1JF, and GW-S5600-1JF have been replaced by the GW-5000U-1JF, GW-M5610UBC-1JF, and GW-S5600U-1JF. The G-Shock GW-5000U is a remarkable timepiece that combines the rugged durability of a G-Shock with advanced technology and a sleek design.

Pursuing further toughness while inheriting the DNA of the first G-SHOCK model (DW5000) the GW5000U-1 is constructed with a solid metal case and a screw back. It’s made in Japan with upgraded components like a metal inner casing, premium rubber strap, and screw-down case back. Outside of the obvious improvement with the screw back case, I prefer the aesthetics of the face and the resin throughout has a much nicer feel (even after putting a 5000 resin strap on my 5610). It’s the same module (and display) as your 5610 tho, if you have the older non-U version there are some updates like LED light and I think the world time is different too….Sent from my iPad using TapatalkI checked mine which is another JDM import and it has the CE mark as well. The GW-5000u and the GMW-5000 full metal range both have the 3459 module (both have it engraved on the back casing). Shipped within an hour, some reviews don’t make positive reading but will make judgement on we the coming days based on my own experience. I agree with Chempop however if your looking for an upgrade across the board then get a full metal version.
