Two inexpensive G-Shock watches: the DW5600 and the DW9052.

I’ve had a fair share of broken wristwatches over the years, so much that I began to “babysit” them.

It’s comforting to know that the G-Shocks can take a beating and keep working as intended. There is no need to take care of them and, if you get a model with solar power, you don’t even need to worry about the battery dying.

I’ve chosen two non-solar models because their modules display the time even in stopwatch or timer mode, and I alternate between them so as to extend battery life.
