Original old school watch with modern improvements

I own several G-Shock watches and when I saw this one it was very unique as it has an original rectangular shape with a modern military look . What I like about this watch is that it's big and massive, about 2 x 2 inches. Unlike other posts with visibility issues, the clock is easy to read and the night light makes it clear at night without being too bright (see photo). If you're on the fence I'd give it a try, you won't be disappointed. The watch is genuine and comes with all papers etc. The…

  • Sports and outdoors

Reliable watch priced at

Reliable G-Shock watch. I've always wanted a G-Shock with a "square" design, but others just seem too flimsy to me. So this model was the answer. In addition, the presence of a solar panel was a big plus. I really like the design and the look of this particular model. I don't have a tarnish problem like others. Even after a hot shower, diving under water and even using it in the hot sun. I think they must have fixed it. It might have been a bad QC batch. Anyway, this watch is great, works well…

Good watch if you don't really plan to read the dial

Good style, good size, good reputation (G Shock). I wanted to like this watch, but actually I use my watch as a timekeeping tool. As others have said, this watch face is REALLY hard to read. In fact, in a variety of lighting conditions (from low to medium indoors, from medium to bright outdoors) I just can't read the dial. If you can get "STRAIGHT" the right position/angle relative to the light you can read it, but otherwise you'll be stuck with the backlight, which requires coordinated…

Really big watch, really sturdy watch

I've had the GX56BB-1 solar powered (dimmable version) for a few weeks now. For me this was a good buy from Revain. This is one of three watches I own. I also have an older G Shock Rangeman and a Timex Command Shock 200m. I like all three equally and for different reasons. I'm a tall guy with big wrists and they fit pretty well, but they're big enough to push against the back of my hand/wrist every time my hand reaches back toward my body (think push-ups). This is not entirely impractical, but…

  • Men's

Indestructible stealth bomber on wrist

I have a Casio Edifice ECB500D-1A watch. This is the watch I wear every time I go out. Of course, this is a hybrid tracksuit, a kind of watch. However, the watch is too expensive to wear outdoors and too chic to wear anything more than casual. So I was looking for an all black, discreet, military grade, solar powered, high performance watch that I can use outdoors. I saw the G-Shock GX-56BB Blackout series and was hooked. It had the features I wanted and more. ** GX-56BB IS NOT MULTIPLE 6! **…
