Explore the new G-Shock GWS5600U-1, now available in the U.S. This lightweight watch features a carbon fiber band, titanium parts, and advanced tech for $250.

G-Shock U.S. has released the GWS5600U-1, a lightweight watch featuring a carbon fiber band and titanium parts, for $250. Previously a Japan-exclusive, this unexpected U.S. release delights G-Shock fans. The GWS5600U-1, an update from the 2010 model, offers improvements like an LED backlight, adjustable light duration, and date format. With its racing-inspired design, Tough Solar power, and Multi-Band 6 auto time adjustment, this watch is both stylish and functional.
The GWS5600U-1 weighs only 47 grams, thanks to its titanium components, making it lighter than the GW-M5610U-1. The carbon fiber insert band and slightly translucent dark bezel enhance its unique look. Despite being surpassed in weight by the GD-B500, it remains a standout for its design and features. Available at Casio.com and Hodinkee for $250, the GWS5600U-1 offers international shipping through the Hodinkee Shop.
