Casio Men's G-Shock DW6900-1V Sport Watch

Amazing value and price Great retro watch Decided on this between the solar version

Paid £50 for this watch, to be sent from Amazon US. Took over a week to arrive but it saved me £30 by not buying it in the UK. It Is an amazing looking watch in the flesh. Don’t freak out when you notice one of the buttons looks stuck in compared to the other buttons on the watch. It’s meant to be like that. Didn’t come with a manual but YouTube can help you set up the watch. Like I said the watch looks really good in the flesh. Gives 90’s vibes with the colour scheme and look. Don’t regret buying this watch at all.

Was a little surprised as it’s a big watch but the display is relatively small. No idea what the 3 circles above are for. No instructions but you can find on You Tube. I do have a collection of automatics, Garmin and a Suunto core but this is my favourite . Bomb proof!!

Really nice watch

The product itself is fine, but the packaging was very poor. It was not secured properly, and since it came all the way from the US to the UK, the box arrived smashed and bent.

Brilliant watch, and what the G-Shock range is all about. Affordable, Rugged, Clear Display, Accurate and with good, gimmick-free functions. It also has a strong backlight too, which can be useful for night illumination! My only criticism (and it's a small criticism!) is that the functions don't cycle forward and back, as they do on earlier modules such as the DW6600. This is something I can easily live with, though! All in all, a great watch!

This is my favourite G-Shock. Does everything it needs to do and will survive most things.

arrives in a flimsy cardboard box, which had been crushed and torn, luckily the watch still works , but very disappointed in the condition it arrived in , especially as it was a gift

スピードモデルと、こいつはやっぱり鉄板でしょ。最安でGET出来て満足です。

Excelente reloj !!!, practico , con la información necesaria . Bonito el color negro con letras rojas . Display con el tamaño exacto . (Nunca se queja y no te hace quedar mal en ninguna reunión )

Die Casio G-Shock DW-6900 ist ein absoluter Klassiker unter den 6900er Modellen und mittlerweile in Deutschland nur noch selten zu bekommen. Umso mehr hat mich gefreut, dass die Uhr plötzlich hier aufgetaucht ist und dann noch zu einem sehr günstigen Preis. Die Uhr wird vor allem beim US Militär verstärkt genutzt, speziell dieses Modell. Ob es extra dafür beschafft wurde, kann ich nicht sagen, auf jeden Fall sieht man die DW-6900 öfters an Handgelenken von US Streitkräften. Die Uhr an sich unterscheidet sich nicht wesentlich von aktuelleren G-Shock Modellen. Das Modul ist noch etwas einfacher gehalten, so hat die Uhr weder Solar noch Funkempfang. Auch gibt es z.B. keine Weltzeit wie bei neueren G-Shocks. Eine automatische Sommerzeitanpassung fehlt ebenfalls. Auch der Alarmmodus ist einfach gehalten, die Uhr verfügt lediglich über 1 Alarmzeit und das stündliche Signal. Ansonsten bringt die Uhr noch einen 24 Stunden Countdowntimer, eine 1 Stunden Stoppuhr mit. Auf Knopfdruck erstrahlt das Display in leuchtendem Grün. Das kennt man ja schon von anderen G-Shocks. Trotz des abgespeckten Funtkionsumfangs gebe ich eine klare Kaufempfehlung, denn ehrlich gesagt reichen die Funtkionen völlig aus. Mehr als 1 Alarm benötige ich sowieso nicht und die Weltzeitfunktion meiner anderen G-Shocks nutze ich auch so gut wie nie. DIe Uhr ist sehr robust und macht alles mit. Die 200m Wasserdichtigkeit machen sie zum perfekten Urlaubsbegleiter. Für die Uhr gibt es trotz ihres Alters immer noch ein großes Angebot an Ersatzteilen wie Ersatzbänder oder Cover, falls sie doch mal eine größere Macke abbekommen sollte. Bei diesem Modell ist die Dornschließe aus schwarzem Kunststoff anstatt aus Edelstahl. In meinen Augen nicht unbedingt ein Nachteil, da das Teil trotzdem sehr stabil wirkt. Zu dem angezeigten Preis erhält man hier ein G-Shock Modell mit Kultcharakter und mittlerweile großem Seltenheitswert. Klare Kaufempfehlung!

I have always been a big fan of G-Shock watches, since Casio already makes an incredible watch for a great price, but the G-Shocks take it to another level. I bought two G-Shocks after graduating from boot camp back in 2010. This particular one is just now getting replaced, and the other one is still going somehow. Aside from one minor change, this is exactly how I remember it being. PROS Battery life is insane, and far exceeds the estimated lifespan. I believe when I bought my first DW6900, I believe the manual said that the battery life should be about 7 years. I don't know what I did to it, but mine lasted almost 15 years. I have another model that is still going from 2010. They're rugged without compromising comfort. The straps take a bit of breaking in to get the stiffness out, but once that's done, you barely even know it's there. This is light and comfortable enough that I wear this to bed, in the shower, while swimming, basically 24/7. There's rarely a time when I'm NOT wearing this watch. These keep time with extreme precision. After about a week of wear, I have gained about .25 seconds when compared to my phone clock, since when I set the time on my watch, I made sure everything down to the second was synced up. This may result in needing to make a minor adjustment a couple times a year, but maybe not even then. I know a lot of people like the inverted, fully black display, but I prefer the standard screen that this watch has, I find it a lot easier to read quickly. I also find that when backlit, this display is far easier to read in the dark than the inverted display. CONS I believe my old DW6900 had a steel buckle, and this new one is plastic. If that's the case, it's a bit disappointing that the price of the watch has gone up a bit, but they've changed out a metal part for a plastic part. Having said that, the buckle is easy enough to change out for a steel one. VERDICT There's a reason that, despite all these watch brands that claim they're "Special Forces rated watches", the only one I know of that is actually used by most American special forces is the G-Shock, specifically the DW6900. They trust this watch because it's easily affordable, it keeps time with precision and accuracy, it can stay on someone's wrist without irritation for weeks on end, and it can take a serious beating and keep going. My last DW6900 survived firefighting trainers, tear gas, two deployments, and so much more. I am looking forward to the adventures I'll have with this watch on my wrist!

Eu já havia usado alguns modelos G-Shock em minha adolescência, mas havia me esquecido completamente da praticidade que esse relógio proporciona ao usuário, além de sua resistência. Para terem uma idéia, logo depois de tê-lo recebido por via postal, fui fazer uma ressonância magnética no joelho. Antes de deitar meu corpo no vão da máquina, fui orientado a retirar quaisquer objetos de metal que pudesse estar utilizando naquele momento, só que simplesmente me esqueci de retirar o relógio. Ao fim do exame, os técnicos responsáveis disseram que, muito provavelmente, ele deixaria de funcionar em breve, pois havia sido submetido a um campo magnético que, em geral, causa danos irreparáveis a essa espécie de eletro-eletrônico. Não recomento a ninguém repetir o que fiz, mas o fato é que, hoje, quase um mês depois, meu G-Shock continua funcionando normalmente. Me conquistou de vez, o danado.
