Product Catalog > A-C > Casio Casio DW-5600E-1V G-Shock Classic Watch By: Casio  Features: Average Rating: 5.00 Total Reviews: 11 Price: $33.95 Prices subject to change Product Description: Designed for durability, Casio's DW5600E-IV G-Shock watch handles whatever challenge you throw its way, from light exercise such as jogging and skating to more element-intensive athletic feats, such as swimming (it's water-resistant to 200 meters). Athletes engaged in cross training will appreciate the 1/100-second stopwatch, which measures net time, split time, and first- and second-place times. The watch also counts down in the opposite direction, with an input range of one second to 24 hours. And, of course, the watch is outfitted with most of the traditional digital watch functions, such as an hourly time signal, a daily alarm, and an electro-luminescent backlight. The DW5600E-IV accepts the CR2016 battery, with an approximate battery life of two years, and carries a one-year warranty. Shipping Information Returns Reviews Soldier's Watch  by: on: 08-Jun 2006 I was an infantry paratrooper for 3 years. This watch was in the mud, water, heat, and very cold. I jumped out of planes with the watch, wore it in the desert, in the jungle, and during live fire missions all over the hemisphere. The watch never failed me and kept great time. I wore it until the battery gave out, and bought another. This watch belongs in the pantheon of tough workhorse watches, and I recommend it to anyone that wants a hardcore timepiece that can resist extremes and deliver no matter what. The Greatest-Shock by: Anonymous on: 31-May 2006 This watch is amazing!!! It's the reissue of the old DW-5000 (1983) with two major improvements: the Illuminator and what I call "security buttons". The EL light is very strong, ideal for read the watch even in a dark environment, like a forest. Now the set buttons are smaller than those that came with the original DW-5000, so you can't press them accidentally, what means if you are in TIMER (countdown) mode, you'll stay there until you (not your shirt) prees the mode button again. Do you need more? OK: great design, clear numbers and a very readable LCD. It's light and keeps accurate all the modes: time, alarms, countdown timer (very useful) and stopwatch. Finally it has 200M WR and a durable band. But the thing that I really like about it was the following warning in the user's manual: "This watch has been developed for full heavy duty use." And it's the true. Five stars. TANK by: knoxvillebrewmeister on: 30-May 2006 This is a REAL man's watch! This watch is built like a tank, keeps great time, and the battery lasts a really long time. I never took this watch off even when I played football. I kept it on under my wrist bands to inflict pain on the guys I was blocking. About once a year I would adjust it to the Atomic Clock time. It was never more than a minute off. Also, the description says the battery life is two years. It lasted FIVE years on the initial battery for me! I put another battery in and it lasted EIGHT!!! sweet watch by: Anonymous on: 11-May 2006 Got mine in 88 in basic training- still going strong thru basic and infantry training. NEVER have put a battery in it. Am now just looking for a new band- dont take all the reviews wrong because of the new band thing...the watch is like 18 years old!!!!!
