The classic G-SHOCK square that started it all. The DW5600E-1V carries forward the heritage of the original 5000-series from 1983—famous for its shock-resistant construction and legendary toughness. With its compact square case and clean digital display, this watch delivers the look of the past with modern tech under the hood.
Shock resistance and 200-meter water resistance (WR 20 bar) have made the G-SHOCK name synonymous with durability. An LED backlight helps keep the display readable in low light, while stopwatch, countdown timer, and alarm functions provide daily utility you can rely on.
