Casio G-SHOCK DW5600 Review
If the apocalypse happens, the cockroaches will be wearing G-SHOCKs. The DW5600 is the original square design that launched the brand.
Features
It tells time. It has a stopwatch. It has an alarm. It glows in the dark. It survives drops, mud, and deep diving. It does everything a watch needs to do.
Verdict
There is no excuse not to own one. Even if you own a Rolex, you need a G-SHOCK for the days when things get rough.
