This review is from: Casio Men's GX56-1ACR G-Shock Tough Solar Mud Resistant Digital Sport Watch (Watch)
I have reviewed quite a few G-Shock watches, and this model is the biggest, and baddest of them all. Let me start with the looks. It looks like a 5600 series on steroids, and basically that's what it is. It's large, but not too large, as a couple of people seem to say in some reviews. The display is sharp and crisp, and as I speak I am in a low lit room, with just my pc monitor and I can see the time clearly. Don't let anyone deter you from the negative display, as they have come a long way as of late, and are readable, except in the lowest of light. If its an issue for you, turn the watches auto illumination on, and you will always see the time!! This watch is a matte black with red writing, and accents, red pushers, and red alpha gel in the display. I'll talk about alpha gel in a bit.

Received my Casio GX56 the other day. Haven't taken it off since it came out of the can. Love this watch! It's bigger than I thought but it is totally COOL!

Could have been better.,

The watch is incredibly built.
My only problem is the display should have been larger given the size of the watch. The display is the same size as a regular 5600 casio.
At this price for a non atomic wave receptor casio it should have utilized a larger display and the new led illuminator.
If you go to youtube and search casio gx56 you can see how someone fit the basic 5600 inside the body of a gx56 and you couldn't tell the difference.
The Casio Men's GD100-1ACR G-Shock X-Large Black Multi-Functional Digital Sport Watch is a much better purchase.
Thank you for reading my review.
