Totally agree. The one. The only! Had one forever. Then moved to pure mechanical. Then rediscovered this one, easy, affordable, indestructible, great form factor, mega nostalgia… ❤
Did the same myself,after several years of autos I found myself wanting a no nonsense,do it all,tough as f#*k no fuss,no bs watch that I didn't have to baby. The 5610 is literally god tier.
The watch I use in the night to see what time it is - because of the perfect illumination. The watch I use in the morning to set the time on my mechanical watch of the day - because of multi band 6. The watch I use... for everything. Good looking perfect watch. You never have to change the battery.
Je l'ai depuis des années et elle prend place à mon poignet quand les autres, les précieuses mécaniques, souffrent de mes activités. Elle a été tellement convaincante auprès de mon fils, qu'il s'en ai acheté une recensement. La phrase qui la caractérise le mieux: Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger ;-)
Bonjour Monsieur de Griff, G-Shock watches are in a league of their own... but I don't have one yet... I'd always go for a solar powered model but even so, there isn't any other range of watches that manage to be really accessible and super cool at the same time... Greetings from England, Bob 🍻🥨
Cheers Bob! NO G-Shock? 😱 If you get just one, imho just get this one (maybe get the latest version, as mentioned in the video / depending on preference). These are really not expensive, readily available and just… well they will last forever 😄 This is the easiest watch to recommend imho. This and perhaps an SKX (which is a different budget).
Awesome review....not sure about you Euro dates!!!😅 I also prefer the backlight vs the LED, not sure why watches went to that older school face light vs back Lume (I'll call it Indiglo which TIMEX did, maybe extends battery?). It would be hard to call a "one G-Shock to rule them all" because you can own a bunch and they are really fun (Styles etc). I still wish I had mine from Highschool (90's) I had a pretty sick silver one and the classic DW (forget reference). But again great review as always!
Thanks a lot Karl! Yes, I agree, I own around 10 G-shocks at this time, and I'm not even trying to collect them lol, I just pick one up every once in a while and they never break, so they add up.. quickly. A single G-shock is a lonely G-shock, right? :-) Much appreciate the feedback!!
