    Let's wrap up the last days of summer with a quick look at two new Casio G-Shock watches with translucent elements: specifically the DW-5600LS-7 which is from a lineup of multi-colored neon watches and the brand new GM-5600SCM-1 from a family of metal-covered G-Shocks with transparent styling and camouflage patterns.
    Both watches are really cool in their own way. Personally, I like the texture and colors of the DW-5600LS-7 but also love the stainless steel bezel and camo pattern on the GM-5600SCM-1. To each their own!
    Tune in and find out the pros and cons of each G-Shock and continue to feed your addiction. And if you have a problem, don't blame me. I'm just the messenger.

    Sadly, my experience, all translucent Casio band will change to a yellowish color by passings time, about 5 years, even less than first battery change in some models
    I think sun uv light will ruin the material.

    I don't mind the yellowing. I just enjoy it while it's pretty. And when it does yellow, it gives it a bit of character.

      On my GW-5623E the yellowing goes very well with the golden parts.

    I actually just got my first G shock, the GWM5610. I was pretty skeptical about it at first because I have pretty small wrists at 6 and quarter, but ever since putting it on I love it. Basically has become my daily driver. Might pick up one of those surf gshocks you reviewed a while back! I might never financially recover from this...

    I really like the white with the clear over it. I almost wish the band mimicked the basil color. But I also wish that stopwatch an adjustment button was out more. I really do love the look at that watch but that’s the feature that prevents me from making a purchase because it’s so difficult to push in

    Got my Skeleton camo two days ago and I love it ! Sure the stainless steel make the difference ! My only disappointment is the screen, I was wearing a 5610 before and I noticed immediately that the skeleton shows the characters a bit... washed out ? It is more close to a soft black than full black characters, I don't know if you have noticed this too ?
    Anyway not a deal breaker, it is still readable, but I will say it doesn't pop as much as the 5610 characters.
    Regarding the band, I like it, it is comfortable, but I'm also a bit on guard about the fact it will turn a bit yellowish with time... tough it will take more time in my country with the lack of sun. But maybe they used a good material that will not turn yellow, I know that some silicone are made like this, I bought a case for a device made with silicone and it was resistant to UV light.

    • @WatchingCasio
      @WatchingCasio  Před 3 lety

      Yeah I've noticed the LCD differs across various Casio watches. It's not too bad though. We shall see if the band holds up but I do prefer the black band on this one.

    I absolutely do not want to sound mean with my question let that be known. But, when you wear the SCM it looks HUGE on your wrist. Is that because it is a huge watch or do you have smaller wrists? Because I don't like those big bulky G-Shock watches I thought I'd ask. Great video. Great tip about that "plastic" band!
