The Casio DW5600E is a fairly straightforward G-Shock. This is one of the most popular G-Shocks ever made and also the principal reason of this is that the incredibly superior price/quality ratio; it essentially is a deal for what it has to offer you.
Since Casio did not plan to go fancy on this watch, the layout is simple, with a practical square screen and a comfortable band. The case back utilizes a 3239 module and is made from stainless steel. Lastly, the buckle is glistening and uses one single pin which goes with the multiple tightening levels on the strap. Speaking of size and fit on the other hand, this is one of the smallest G-Shocks available on the current market, coming at measurements of 48.9 X 42.8 X 13.4 mm and a weight of 54 g. It will surely not feel like a burden on the wrist and that makes it an overall better watch for everyday use.
On the screen, you may see the hour seconds and minutes, the day of the week and date. Here is the default settings from which you can further set the other functions of this watch. For example, using a press on down the left button, the alarm configurations will show up, then with a different media you get the timer, then the stopwatch, and also with the fourth press you get back to the home screen. The other buttons are utilized to adjust the modes enumerated before and for the lighting. As anticipated, things are pretty basic, no sophisticated sensors or some other stuff like that. Also, this is a watch that you can set once then never touch the configuration buttons until you have to swap the batteries; a thing which you'll need to do after a couple of years.
I'd say that the illumination is more or less useless, but I recognize it would be unjust to this watch since it does not praise of any dark light capabilities or "watch submerged" stuff, so I say is that the only help you'll get is when it is dark enough you cannot browse the hour without a little help in the EL backlight. And that is pretty much it. Do not expect any smart or superior illumination from its tiny backlight system.
At this cost you literally can not fail. If you believe that a cheap and practical G-Shock is all that you will need for now, you can go with the DW5600 with no further thinking.
