Description
The Casio G-Shock GW-BX5600-1DR (cataloged within G-Shock’s cutting-edge GW-BX5600 origin square series) is an advanced digital timepiece that pairs the iconic heritage of the original DW-5000C/DW-5600 with Casio’s most requested modern display and power technologies. Built around a sustainable bio-based resin case measuring 49.1 × 44.1 mm across and 13.4 mm thick, it weighs just 51 grams for an easy, lightweight fit. It secures with a supple bio-based resin strap fastened by a traditional pin buckle.
The visual centerpiece of this reference is its sharp Memory-in-Pixel (MIP) LCD display, framed by a nostalgic solar brick-pattern dial inspired by early G-Shock squares. The MIP screen delivers outstanding legibility across extreme viewing angles, customizable digital font styles, and four layout modes. It is illuminated by a full-auto Super Illuminator LED backlight with adjustable afterglow and shielded by scratch-resistant mineral glass.
Engineered for absolute reliability, the watch features 20-bar (200-meter) water resistance and shock-proof construction. It combines Tough Solar charging with dual-sync auto timekeeping—utilizing both Multi-Band 6 atomic radio reception and Bluetooth Smartphone Link via the CASIO WATCHES app. Other functions include 38-time-zone world time (55 cities + UTC), a 1/100-second stopwatch, a 24-hour countdown timer, 5 daily alarms, a phone finder, and power-saving sleep modes. Blending vintage square DNA with premier modern display clarity and solar-connected convenience, the Casio G-Shock GW-BX5600-1DR stands out as a definitive daily tool watch.
