The DW5600BB-1 features G-SHOCK’s iconic square case with an easy-to-read digital display for quick reference during high-stress situations. The watch also includes an EL Backlight, Multi-function Alarm and Flash Alert.
Both watches feature G-SHOCK’s standard technologies designed to stand up in rigorous work environments, including Shock Resistance and 200M Water Resistance.

About G-Shock
G-Shock is the ultimate tough watch. It was born from a developer’s dream of “creating a watch that never breaks.” Guided by a “Triple 10" development concept, the design teams sought a watch with 10-meter free-fall endurance, 10-bar water resistance and a 10-year battery life. At a time when it was commonly believed that watches were breakable items, G-Shock’s development represented a challenge to common sense. Since launched, G-Shock has continued to evolve for more then 30 long years, carrying on the toughness of spirit and uncompromising passion that led its developers to persist in their unshakable belief.
