The DW-5600RW-1 brings a bold, colourful evolution to the iconic G-SHOCK square silhouette. Measuring 48.9 mm lug-to-lug, 42.8 mm across and 13.4 mm thick, it retains the highly wearable, low-profile dimensions that have made the 5600 series a timeless staple in digital watchmaking. Built from environmentally conscious bio-based resin for both the case and the band, the watch maintains the legendary shock-resistant construction and 200-metre water resistance the brand is renowned for. Weighing just 52 grams, it delivers extreme durability without sacrificing comfort, making it an effortless companion for daily wear.
The defining feature of this model is its striking rainbow vapour deposition glass. Paying homage to the original brick wall pattern of the very first G-SHOCK, the mineral glass face has been treated with a specialised vapour deposition process that creates a brilliant, iridescent gradient. Under changing light, the brick motif shifts through a spectrum of vibrant hues, ensuring every watch face catches the light slightly differently. Beneath this dynamic exterior lies a highly capable digital module offering a 1/100-second stopwatch, a countdown timer with auto-repeat, a multi-function alarm, and a crisp white LED Super Illuminator backlight for clear visibility in the dark. Upgraded with a highly efficient movement, this model provides approximately 5 years of reliable timekeeping on a single CR2016 battery.
