Review on πŸ• Casio G-Shock GW-B5600BC-1JF Radio Solar Watch: Authentic Japan Domestic Genuine Product by Aida Plata

Revainrating 1 out of 5

NOT brand new watch, avoid

Update (#2, newest) I bought and received the same b5600bc watch again, but this time I ordered it direct from Japan. Now I can say that the Revain watch was not new and not fully functional. The genuine Japanese b5600bc has the following differences: - Comes in a slim gift box (not in a tin like I received from Revain) - Perfect cardboard outer packaging (the box is not bent, not torn, not used) - There are two paper labels on the strap of the watch (the Revain bc5600 only has one) - The battery is 50% charged. (was 0% on Revain watches) - The manual is sealed in a thermoplastic material that cannot be opened. (The Revain manual was in plain paper form.) So real Japanese watches differ in many ways. I hope the solar charging will work this time. I paid more from a Japanese seller than here but I'm glad I did. To be honest I have no idea what Casio b5600bc are on sale here. Looks real and works, including syncing with phone. But the packaging is not the same. And the battery only lasts one week.============Update #1 in 1 week.====================== = ========Returned. The watch came from Revain with 0% battery. After charging to 100%, it returned to 0% in ONLY 1 week. Doesn't hold a charge. They were delivered unloaded (should be mediocre from the factory) => The watch is defective, return possible. After reading here that many G-Shocks don't hold a charge, I'm now wondering: are all G-Shocks Revain B-stock and defective? Why doesn't Casio sell Revain through authorized dealers?
