At this point, the 5600 series is definitely one of the most recognizable designs in the G-SHOCK catalog. It’s a robust design that gives you a lot of functionality for your money, and their latest brings a whole lot of color to the table. Time to get familiar with the G-SHOCK 5600 Energy Pack.
G-SHOCK 5600 Energy Pack: the basics
At their core, these watches are the same DW5600-series G-SHOCK design that we’ve all become quite familiar with. The rectangular case comes built out of resin (the band is bio-based resin), along with their iconic shock resistant construction.
What’s new
For this release, it’s all about the colors. You can opt for the high-viz fluorescent yellow, a bold cherry red, or a bright-and-cool blue raspberry. Along with the colors, you’ve also got the new visual alert feature that we’ve seen showing up in the newer 5600 models. What this means is, along with the digital chirp for an alarm, you can also have the display flashing as well.
