Earlier this year I bought my very first G-LIDE watch. I was so impressed that I bought a slightly different version of the same watch. In many ways this G-Shock GWX-5600700 shares my favorite functions and features of G-Shock Squares. It has Tough Solar (to automatically charge the battery through exposure to everyday lighting), Multiband 6 (to automatically set itself to the correct "atomic time" and maintain accuracy as long as radio reception is good), 20-Bar or 200 Meter water resistance, five alarms (one of which is a snooze alarm), an hourly signal, a one-hour stopwatch, a power save mode and an electro-luminescent backlight with an automatic option. But it also has a unique, dual-interval, repeating countdown timer along with a Tide Graph and a Moon Phase indicator. This model can also show what the Tide and Moon will be doing on future dates.
This watch uses Module 3215, which is the same module used in the GWX-5700 models. The negative LCD version of this module is listed as Module 3222 and has all of the same functions for the negative LCD variations of GWX-5600 and GWX-5700 G-Shocks. The first watches to use these modules were introduced in the year 2010 and the most recent version was released in 2021.
