About GLX-5600 in Short. G-SHOCK, the watch that has long supported the world’s top surfers and extreme sports enthusiasts, introduces the latest additions to the G-LIDE lineup of sports watches. These models are based upon the DW-5600, the slim, compact G-SHOCK designed to hug the wrist. A Tide Graph on the display provides the modern surfer with essential information about surfing conditions. The metal face and spatter mirror finish of the Tide Graph display, as well as the high-gloss finish the band and bezel all combined to add a touch of quality and elegance to the design. The band is decorated with pin stripe lines that are similar to popular surfboard designs.
