For quite some time I have wanted to purchase the Casio G-Shock DW5600, but when I considered the additional features of the Casio G-Shock GWM5610, I decided to spend twice the $. My only other G-Shock experience (excellent) is with a DW6900, which I have owned about 5 years, considered my beater or tough duty/activity watch. The handy instruction booklet got me reasonably familiar with the functions and settings sequences, although I might have to refer again on certain matters. Accordingly, set up to my preferences was quick, simple, and in short order I began the enjoyment of this digital watch.
The black resin band is secured comfortably and easily by a traditional polished silver buckle and tongue. Although describe in larger metrics, I would say the face appears much along the lines of 40mm on my 6-7/8" wrist. It is relatively lightweight, and generally comfortable to wear. The excellent backlight far outperforms that of any I have seen on the Casio products. All the functions perform outstandingly. The solar-power and atomic timekeeping are really cool features, and frankly, seem to account for increase in price over the DW5600. Since I have only had mine a few days, I can't yet attest to the durability, but have no doubts that it is rugged and can stand up to anything I will give it. I dig the appearance and the display, and might say my expectations are exceeded.
Now, for the more "classic" piece, I guess I will have to order me a companion DW5600 to alternate with my GWM5610.

Solar and atomic timekeeping
I have a medium to small collection of mechanical watches and wanted a beater quartz for accuracy and simplicity. I have a metal Casio royale but still wanted something to wear to the grocery store in sweat pants. The GWM5610U is the perfect watch for me and should work for most people, it really wears well. It's not one of the gigantic ridiculous plastic looking G-Shock models. The resin band is pretty soft and looks good, but won't be for everyone it's definitely not for me.The module has more features than I really need or will use but I'll set an alarm for laundry or while cooking, I like the auto light but by far the star is the solar and atomic time set. If you like the style it could really be the perfect one watch collection.I live in a multi unit apartment building in Chicago and can't get the G-Shock to receive the time tower signal at all either manually or automatically, so here is some tips for any interested. Download an app called "radio watch sync" it was free. I simply open the app turn the phone speakers volume to full blast and push start. Put the watch next to the speakers the app will sound a pulsing kind of hum and in under a minute I get the RCVD in the top right corner, now it's atomic time.Also the Ritchie strap 20mm G-Shock strap adapter kit looks and works perfectly with the 5610 so now I can wear any strap I want. A little red on the band really makes the watch face pop.

Quality:
This watch is built like a tank. Solid, milled stainless steel back, a very durable (albeit stiff) quality resin band. A crisp LCD display, and a pretty decent weight for a non-metal watch: 53g. Enough to know you have a piece of quality on your wrist, but still extremely light weight for every day use.
Features:
Multi-band 6 pairing and Tough Solar technology are the highlights of this watch. For $100, you’re getting a watch that never needs a battery replacement (provided you’re in an environment with good sunlight or ambient light) and never needs adjusting, as it sets itself with atomic signals anywhere in the world, making it extremely accurate to the second. Apart from this, it features more functions that are taken for granted, but absolutely vital to have. A countdown timer? Check. Stopwatch? Check. Illumination light? Check. Ability to set multiple alarms? Check. In terms of functions, this watch shines.
Durability:
As expected from Casio’s G-SHOCK line, durability is a staple in every watch they make, and this one is no exception. Adequate to 20 BARS of pressure (200m) for water, this watch will stand up to any activity involving plain water (such as swimming) easily, just don’t take it in the shower as the soaps and steam may damage the seals. It has a durable resin construction which can absorb and distribute shock around the watch, coupled with the free-floating module technology and the design of the band itself, this thing is made to take punishment like a champ.
Overall, this watch is beauty. Not for its flashiness, but because of it’s modesty. You won’t get any comments about how amazing of a watch this is, as it looks like an every day carry, but rest assured, this thing will last.
From my understanding, (may be incorrect), the country in which this watch was made in (Thailand) has the most robust and advanced watch making Casio factory, unlike the other factories they own, like the one that makes cheap models in China. You know that for the money you pay, you’re getting a quality watch made extremely well, a watch with a vast and very useful set of functions, and one that can stand the rigours of everyday life. If you’re hesitant, trust me....
Take the plunge, you will not regret it.
