Would have bought this if I didn't get the one from the Amazon deal couple of weeks ago.

Awesome watch, a lot lighter and comfy than expected. Also looks fine on small wrist unlike most g shocks out there.

Will go great with my high waisted jeans with ripped knees and my corduroy jacket. Or if I really want to dress things up I can pull out the Members Only jacket.

LCD was developed by George H. Heilmeier in 1968. Maybe you shouldn't make ignorant comments if you're that unaware of history.

Damn, this is a great price, but I will pass. I already have two of these in different colors. I'll wait for the 5610 solar multiband to go sale.

I wore this very watch in the 1980s, although occasionally took it off to wear my high school friend's GMT Master

good times

I'd consider this if it has Dual Time, but there is no mention for this in the description.

I like water resistant watches that only need a charge once every couple of years.

Before the Apple watch. Michael Knight had one similar to this but he could talk to Kitt during the 80's with his.

I think he's trying to make a joke about the Casio f91w favored by terrorist. But that is a different model

Great price for an iconic watch!

For anyone who doesn't know, this is THE quintessential g-shock. It pays tribute to the second g-shock model the dw-5200 that was in the iconic hockey puck ad in 1984. That watch was the watch that saved g-shock and was nicknamed "Hero".

The 5600 was first released in the late 80s and has been in many movies including "Speed" in the early 90s. That movie helped the model catch on with the public.

The watch is rated to 200m water resistance and is tough as nails. Holds the record for surviving being run over by the heaviest truck. It's NASA certified and has been to space many times.

The reason it is on clearance is there is a newer version that has a white LED backlight instead of the classic green electroluminescence. I like the look of the traditional green light better, but the new version has improved battery life.

The biggest negatives of the 5600s in my opinion is the adjust button on the top left is very recessed to prevent accidental button press. This makes it very difficult for some people to press. I had to spend a long time figuring out how to press it with my thumb finger nail. Also, the replaceable battery is only rated for 2 years. But many people get 5 and even more. It depends how much you use the backlight etc
