For those who did not know, the GW-5000U-1ER is a modern day replica of the first G-Shock from 1983, but it has been upgraded with the better module, sharper and clearer display, LED backlight, a DLC screw back and a soft rubber band unlike any other square G-Shock. It is solar powered watch with the case made of the stainless steel protected with the soft resin bezel. This watch is multiband 6 (it receives signal from one of the 6 transmitters in the world and automatically updates correct time every day). It may appear a bit smaller on the wrist than the modern day G-Shock watches, but it has this retro look that I really love. However, it feels very soft and comfortable on the wrist, and you can still feel it's weight due to steel case of the watch. The GW-5000U is made in Japan, and it was originally created and sold only for the Japanese market (GW-5000U-1JF), but due to high popularity and demand it started selling in Europe as well (GW-5000U-1ER). Both models are identical and both are made in Japan. For many collectors and fans of the square G-Shock, this is the ultimate and perfect model of the G-Shock as it was originally built. To me, this is THE G-Shock. It is my every day watch and I love it. Whenever I look at my wrist it makes me feel happy and gets me back to the wonderful 80's (yes, I am old). I was looking for this watch all over the internet and I chose to buy it from the Uhrenarena.de because they had the best price that I could find. Due to fact that I live in Bosnia, I am very happy with the fast delivery and how well the whole package was protected.
