Casio G-Shock GXW-56-1BJF Review

Casio G-Shock GXW-56-1BJF Review 1It rocks a massive case of 55.5 mm and weighs only 88 g. Although some might believe this isn't even near what they could possibly wear, the G-Shock fans understand better. It is one of the most anticipated releases from the G-Shock lineup and even stars such as Floyd Mayweather didn't hesitate to use one as their everyday drivers.


While bulky, the case feels good on the wrist as a result of small weight which is spread on a larger surface. This way you won't perceive the watch for a burden as long as you get accustomed to its dimensions. The materials used are fairly fundamental: the case and band are made of the normal tough resin that we can see on many G-Shocks along with the window is constructed of a resistant mineral crystal. While Casio promotes the clasp as being "heavy duty" with 2 locking pins, I believe it fairly basic but effective at offering security against undesirable detachments.

To get a G-Shock of this size, Casio understood that the features are an essential component to convince the customers that this view is worth it. And they stepped up their game with the improvements on this subject, especially with the Japanese version we review. With the multiband system, you can be certain the time in your G-Shock is always true since it receives daily time calibration via Casio's stations around the world; more on that you can find here, on the bottom of the webpage.
Casio G-Shock GXW-56-1BJF Review


The configuration buttons will be exactly the same as on other G-Shocks, like the G-Shock GWM5610, the DW-5600BB-1JF or the DW5600E-1V, which by the way you can check out by clicking on their titles. There is nothing particular when speaking of this design except the looks of the covers and the buttons themselves. Other than that the configuration and the accessibility to all its features are well known.



While it's wonderful to find the 200-meter water resistance, I doubt that anyone would go this way underwater but anyhow, it's nice to know that the watch on your wrist gets better compared to your lungs to water pressure.



This is unquestionably a G-Shock designed for people who are searching for an intense sized watch. It's no doubt that a number of wrists could not handle the size of the GXW-56, but the watch is not supposed to be acceptable for everyone.

Features List:

  • 200 meters / 660 ft. water resistance
  • Self-solar charging
  • Shock and mud resistant
  • World Time with 31 time zones
  • Countdown Timer and Stopwatch
  • MultiBand Atomic time calibration
  • Bright EL backlight
  • Auto Calendar and all other sweet G-Shock features
