It also comes fitted with an average speed calculator, and also benefits from 200m water resistance too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"838\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-3-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18820\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-3-2.jpg 838w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-3-2-300x106.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-3-2-768x270.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-3-2-750x264.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-3-2-510x180.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-3-2-360x127.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-3-2-120x42.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 838px) 100vw, 838px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, following the same blue and purple accenting, is the GW-B5600, similar to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/casio-mens-g-shock-heritage-black-resin-strap-digital-gw-b5600hr-1er-p-51995\/\">GW-B5600HR-1ER<\/a> Heritage model! This model is expected to be a popular one, as the rectangular dial is one of the most iconic silhouettes from the brand!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A more subtle colouring on this piece, with less colour, but just as much style! featuring neon purple highlights on the bezel, and more bright accenting, this model is given an almost low-tech look! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite this look, the model still features the expected technologies inside! It also comes with a bi-colour molded band, that is black on the outer layer, and turquoise inside. A consistent feature through the collection!<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"838\" height=\"295\" src=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18817\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-2-1.jpg 838w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-2-1-300x106.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-2-1-768x270.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-2-1-750x264.jpg 750w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-2-1-510x180.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-2-1-360x127.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.firstclasswatches.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/G-Shock-retro-2-1-120x42.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 838px) 100vw, 838px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The third model in the range is inspired by the countless cult classics produced in the 90&#8217;s. This model has been updated with a futuristic colourway, with the clever use of neon purples, blue and greens. This colouring gives the piece a multi-dimensional look, which is completely out of this world! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This watch is the medium size range, and gives the wearer an easy-to-read analogue and digital dial. A 55mm diameter, and 200m water resistance makes this watch an ideal utility piece for all kinds of adventures. The perfect retro sports style G-Shock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This collection is currently only available from G-Shock stores directly, however it is still a fantastic, and interesting range of watches, celebrating the vibrance and style of the retro 90&#8217;s!<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The G-Shock brand is home to some of the most interesting, stylish and unique watches around!
