Amazon.com Product Description
This Casio G-Shock watch is a highly accurate and durable digital timepiece perfect for travelers, adventurers, or anyone looking for a multi-function, rough-and-ready watch. Featuring atomic timekeeping, the watch automatically sets using radio signals to ensure perfect time accuracy. Charged by solar power, the battery can last up to eight months on a full charge without further exposure to light. The screen indicates the battery level, and the watch comes with a power saving function. Ideal for world travelers or international calls, the watch can be set for 29 time zones (30 cities), with or without daylight savings, and comes with a city code display so you know where you are. The watch also features four daily alarms and one snooze alarm, a countdown timer, a 1/100 second stopwatch, hourly time signals, and an automatic calendar pre-programmed through 2099. The octagonal bezel of dark gray resin gives the watch a distinctive look, and the octagonal digital display window offers an automatic EL backlight with afterglow for easy night reading. The rugged band and case are also made of resin. The watch is designed for enhanced shock resistance, is water resistant up to 660 feet (200 meters), and is backed by a 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty.

 Great watch for everyday use March 7, 2010
Tiago Castanheira (Canada, Toronto)
I have never really used watches, always used my cell phone but with my blackberry i have to put a password after an amount of time, its annoying and robs the battery of much needed juice, Just to check the time. I had an old 1980 5600 in my drawer and decided to do some research on modern casio watches. After reviewing g-shock and amazon website i fell in love with the g-shock brand because of the durability, the style, features, and price. I bought the g-shock g-300 green streetrider witch I loved so much i decided to get another g-shock that being the 5600j, I have to say this is one high tech watch. I have a smaller wrist but the 5600j fits just fine although I have to admit the g-300 is more comfortable. That being sayd they are big but not to big or bulky, they are both a good size watch for a variety of different sized wrists.

Simple to use, very reliable, ideal for work in rugged environments or sports. Atomic time is such a great feature, once you have had it you'll never want another form of time keeping.

Not a great watch.
- The tiny metal buttons are hard to push.
- The countdown timer only goes up to 60 minutes.
- The date/day aren't displayed together. It's frustrating that there is an empty space on the display where either could have been placed.
- The time isn't displayed in the stopwatch or CDT modes.
A family favorite January 17, 2010

Purchased one of these watches for my son-in-law for the Holidays of 2009, but
after examining the watch and setting the home city, he almost did not receive
it. The clarity of the display, feel on the wrist, backlight ( it is an illu-
minator ), ease of setting for personalization, were so much to my liking that
I ultimatly purchased two other g-shock atomic solars for myself. He did get
this watch, and likes it so much that he sometimes wears it to bed. He is im-
pressed with the solar and automic features, but the comfort of the watch on the
wrist, and its accuary, are the primary attractions for him. The eye appeal of
the classic design does not hurt the equation, either.
A second GW5600J-1 watch will be shipped out by me to my brother-in-law shortly,
and I am certain he too will be impressed by the features and personality of this
watch, if, of course, I can again convince myself to part with it.
