Which G-SHOCK should you pick?

Thinnest and best for small wrists

The GA-2100 and GM-2100 are the thinnest models here at 11.8 mm; the GA-2100 is also only 45.4 mm wide and 51 g. The DW-5600 is narrower at 42.8 mm but thicker at 13.4 mm.

Never change a battery

The GA-B2100, GW-6900, GW-M5610 and GMW-B5000 use Tough Solar, which recharges from sunlight or indoor light. The GMW-B5000 also sets itself by radio and syncs with your phone.

Longest battery without solar

The GA-V01 runs about 10 years on one battery, according to Casio. The GA-700 follows at about 5 years.

Heaviest and most premium

The GMW-B5000 is full stainless steel at 167 g, more than three times the weight of a resin DW-5600, with a Casio U.S. list price of $600.
