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.
It's a Cool WATCH ! I would like to add it to my collection !
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.
They gather so much visible dust that I had to switch on metal, full metal 2019 2020 ones. Love them all and gather more compliments than any model previously own. Baaaang!
As always great video! :)
Thank you!
I've recently became a fan of translucent g shocks too. I've got a dw5735e that I've been wearing
Yes! Another great translucent G-Shock. I love that one.
Scrap the clear strap and bezel . Put an orange bezel and strap to match the orange surround on the module and it would look great
The metal G-Shocks I have beat my 2 Tissots by far in terms of attention and compliments. Amazing and pure Japanese ❤
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...
That's my first watch. Classic and awesome, still wear it!
Go for a GWX-5600: additional solar and MB6. No battery replacement.
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
It's kind of ridiculous isn't it? Still a great watch besides.
The GM5600SCM1 the metal camo one would look amazing with the grey smoky translucent strap.
I agreed with you about the bands due to I have, it needed more improvement for lady watch almost same color, but it has good bands.
I winder how the orange dial onw will look on a black case and strap or a metal kit.
I like orange and that combo sounds awesome!
I might get one just for the orange part.. Not a fan of translucent case\strap.
Thanks for the vid!
Where i live its always the season to wear translucent. Oh man I went on jungle expedition with that fishing casio I saw on your channel wasn't disappointed lmao
Ha, nice! Wow that sounds fun. On a side note, a nice gentleman from Thailand grabbed me that watch. Review soon I hope!
@@WatchingCasio damn literally can't wait it's a nasty one
Great video .. really like the translucent Casios .. by the way what is the watch with the gold dial in the background at around 0:17 ?
That would be the Casio MTF-117BD-9A. Incredibly hard to find. Hope to do a review soon.
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.
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.
Just. One. More. Translucent. Watch
please a question, what model of nylon straps do you put on the DW-5600LS-7?
(Thanks for your time)
I miss your updates!!
Just bought GM-110SCM-1AER
METAL-COVERED SKELETON CAMOUFLAGE SERIES GM-110SCM-1AER wondering if you know where I can get a black genuine g shock strap for it?
The thing that holds down the extra slack on the band is called a "keeper".
Dammit you're right haha. I knew it didn't sound right.
Now 99€ brand-new from an Austrian Dealer. The GM-5600SCM version of course..
Nice video! It's tough to tell, but what are the colors in the GM-5600SCM-1 camo bezel? I see grey and black...is there a bit of a green shade in there as well? I can never tell from the pics I've seen online.....
Nope, no green. Just shades of gray.
@@WatchingCasio Thanks for the reply! I just ordered a DWE-5600CC-3 and am very excited....
Late but great review. I like the ability to swap bands. Can anybody tell me the width of the band for the G-Shock GM5600SCM-1, is it 24mm??
It's a standard 16 mm lug with.
Hello, does the strap turn yellow?
Hello ! Do you give my a link to buy your black bracelet (fabric strap one) please ? Good review :)
Hmm I think it came with a special edition watch. I would try Ebay for specific bracelets.
Can you put the stainless steel bracelet on the 5600SCM? Will it match with the bezel?
Yes, you can actually. It looks pretty good too!
If the 5600SCM1 would feature Solar & Multiband 6 i would buy it asap. BUT: 209€ (244.92 USD) is ridiculous!
Yeah the stainless steel bezeled Casio's aren't cheap.
Can i fit the bracelet from GW-M5600BC or from GW-B5600BC on GM-5600SCM and GM-6900SCM? Thanks.
I'm not sure, but I would say probably not. I've tried fitting bands from my GWs over to GMs and they don't really fit.
I'm approaching casio accumulation issue as well... So what do you think i should buy next, A gulfmaster gn1000 or Mudmaster GG1000?
Man, I'm so jealous. I wish my wrists could handle those beefy watches! I'm quite partial to the Mudmaster. I've always wanted one.
@@WatchingCasio my wrist is smaller than yours, it's just that I hit gym so my forearm is wider. The GG1000 fits very nicely on my tiny ass wrist you should get it anyway its a very useful watch and since I go on forest expedition and such it will serve me nicely
@@badabingbadaboom9251 Ha, nice. Well damn, i might just have to pick one up now.
@@WatchingCasio you totally should you're missing out!
i thought the upper left button was a defect, haha
Unfortunately, no!
Too bad they don't have a solar translucent model that would be so amazing
I agree, though you can get translucent bracelets and bezels for pretty much any G-Shock aftermarket.
@@WatchingCasio I have been thinking about getting those mods but idk maybe I'm just looking for an excuse to buy another casio😅
@@mr.angryman3599 Don't blame you!
If you wear them a lot, clear translucent bands always discolor and look like crap 😑
I heard that too. We shall see!
Good reason to change it for a silver Grey nato strap
IMHO I think A button is hide and hard to press on Dw 5600 because of the asronauts. You don't want to mess up your time up there.. 🚀
Ha, damn astronauts.
i HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, JAJAJAJA
Translucent bands become yellow. They're not the best option if you don't want to loose your time searching for spare parts etc..
اي احد عربي يعلمني البرتقاليه وين احصلها تكفون😭😭.
على موقع GShock
Uhm... How many is too many? I have a dozen G-Shocks and only have the rare split-second thought that I may need start thinking if I should maybe consider the probability of trying to pause for 24 hours before pressing that "Buy a G-Shock" button :-D
A dozen isn't too bad! I'm right there along with you.
Yellowish band inevitable
What the heck has G Shock come down to.....looks like A watch that comes free in a cereal Box.....get serious G Shock and give all those away....fast
LOL
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!
It's a Cool WATCH ! I would like to add it to my collection !
