G-Shock DW-6900 Rating By G-Central
The DW-6900 wears larger than the DW-5600 but the EL backlight is easier to activate with the front light button. Like the DW-5600, it lacks the features of higher priced models, but it offers great value at its commonly discounted price of around $50.

  • The iconic and best-selling DW-5600 shares the same shape and style as the original G-Shock DW-5000C from 1983. The DW-5600 is a basic and affordable model that is available in a large variety of colorways. Recent models are equipped with the more power-efficient LED backlight instead of the EL backlight.
