DW5600 The Original G-Shock hnnnggghh!!!  icon_rolleyes.gif

Yea the classic all the way! I myself using this model for gym! Don't underestimate the classic as it has some of the "features" that even the top range models doesn't have xD
First one is the size. I have 3 g shock (dw6900, GA110RG and GX-56 aka the king) and this is the right size for gym as when u do push up or bench press it wouldn't block Ur wrist from bending back. The next plus side is U can see the time while you r in the stop watch mode, which is what U wouldn't get from most of the model (include those high end version). The fonts size also bigger than 6900 while the overall footprint is smaller.

The downside? Casio stated is has 2 years of battery life but from most of the people it can last at least 5 years. How can Casio lie to us? >:(

sounds like u wear the watch quite tight?
i use rangeman for gym and got no issues.
my rangeman, mudman 9300 and 9000 all also shows time with the stopwatch...same with my protreks.

i think casio batt life is worse case scenario for those ppl who like to use the backlight alot.

the main problem is there is no guidelines on how they tested the watch and come up that approx battery life.( I cant search any)

Without that I cant guesstimate how long my watch will last base on my usage base on the casio claimed 2,3,5,7,10 yrs battery life.

atm, I just blindly aim minimum 5yrs and assume that I could get 6-7yrs batt-life. rclxub.gif

actually everytime i buy normal gshock the shop always say 3-5yr battery life.
if solar, batt life about 7-10yrs.

Haha Ya but the difference here is the price is at least one or 2 even 4 times more for the rangeman compared to dw5600. But I really like rangeman thou they really looks nice and will get one one day!

Yes for gym or swimming need to wear a bit tight if not it will jiggle here and there, like when u do push up it will drop down which quite annoys me.

actually not really, IIRC i only put on about 1kg lean mass, and that was enough to make it fit nicely.

maybe the gx-56 notches are further apart?
my rangeman and mudmans they all look same distance apart.

Yup! I compared it to the GA110 and 5600 each notch are slightly further apart o.o Guess i got no choice but to go and gain a bit more weight so that it could fit me nicer :/
