The 1545 module has a date of 1995 when the calendar is reset, but that will not tell the exact year of manufacture, since the 5600E was released in 1996.
G shocks are the toughest mtfckrs of all! I wear a DW6900 tough solar for 13 years now and although i have a good collection of watches this is my everyday watch! I just love it and i'm about to buy and an analogue one.
Yes they are brilliant watches. I still have my GM 5600B 3er from new, bought it as a spare. Never worn it, modified it with black metal strap components from the States. Should get at least 8 years out of the battery but they are so easy to change.
Rule of thumb. When it comes to changing a 3volt lithium battery you never touch the battery with your fingers. It drains the power dramatically. Always use tweezers.
5600 is for ages. still have mine from high school and i'm 43 right now and got myself a couple more 5600, one with negative display and another with a multiband 6.
I must confess that i have thrown them in the trash when the battery died! Just went out and got a new one as they USED to be cheap and amazing value for money! Its a timeless classic ,no pun intended! I still have the 5600c and somehow that escaped the rubbish bin ,thankfully-
In the 90's, I would buy a new G-Shock about every two years and throw the old watch in the trash. Always the black square model. The plastic band would get squeaky and brittle and then break.
