## Description

Casio 2018 GX56BB-1 Watch G-Shock XL King of G Shock Black on Black

Review: Absolute beast - top tier G Shock - I own quite a few Casios and G Shocks, and this is definitely one of my favorites. If you love what makes a G Shock stand out - durability, size, and functionality, this really is the King. It's massive. I'm sure you know that if you've seen anything about this watch, but pictures don't quite do it justice, it really does make other G Shocks look smaller by having so much extra reinforcement, and could probably withstand a tank driving over it no problem. And yet somehow even with its size, it's extremely comfortable Being a solar is awesome too - you'll be looking at 15-20 years before needing to have the battery replaced, and given this thing will charge even with indoor light, unless you live in a cave you shouldn't need to worry about having to go out of your way to charge it. For me it's a non issue, as I do like negative displays, but I *can* see it having a negative display being an issue for some. The backlighting at night is really nice, but at some parts during the day the lighting isn't enough, and if negative is hard for you to read, you may have times here and there where it's a little tougher to read the time. For me though, I like them and can read them just fine, so it's not a problem. Combined with the matte black finish, it looks sleek, and can take a beating. Add on most likely a few decades of battery life from the sun, and you really have something that's hard to beat. Very much worth the money, and if you already like g shocks, this is a must for the collection.
Review: The BB King has arrived... - I have struggled with negative displays previously so I was hesitant. I took the plunge and holy CRAP I love this watch. I would think that this is definitely for people with larger wrists unless you want a HUGE watch on your smaller wrist. With a 7.8" wrist, it is like it was MADE for me. The legibility of this screen is just unbelievable albeit requiring a tilt of the wrist as needed. At night with auto-illumination on, the display could NOT be more clear. This backlight is just fantastic and works so well. I added a set of bull bars to this watch and it enhances the already amazing durability of the watch as well. With its 200M of water resistance, this will EASILY handle every water exposure need that will ever need. Guess I'll have to call off my Bering Strait dive though. :-) This was could not be easier to use for sure. Very simple, clean interface, full of features for every activity, it literally hits the bill perfectly. And it's solar powered! For the money, you can't go wrong. I would buy ANOTHER one If they made this model with solar power and MultiBand 6. THAT would be AMAZING! If you find that you like this style, there are 17 other 56GX models. Some of them are pretty plain looking while OTHERS are very colorful and include some collabs with celebrities. I already have 5-6 OTHER variations on my list for sure. For the money, it is a GREAT value. Even at its large size, it is incredibly lightweight. And the time keeping is so accurate! Don't think twice. Just buy it. NOW! You will NOT be disappointed.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great watch!
*by J***N on February 11, 2023*

Let’s get to the important stuff: the readability. Yes, it’s a negative, stealthy cool screen, it’s a bit harder in some light conditions but you got the auto-backlight feature for that. You just lift your arm and point the watch to your eyes and the numbers light up in a great blue/green tone. Or you can just press the light button and voilà! It’s solar powered, so you won’t have to worry about spending battery life. And when pointed at direct light, the gold digits look just beautiful! Over all, it’s a fantastic watch. It’s a Casio and it’s a G-Shock, what else do you need? Yes, smart watches do a lot of stuff today, yes they do, so? First of all, I don’t like having that much radiation on my wrist all the time, ok? It’s like having your phone stuck to your skin all day and all night, no thanks. Second, I own an applewatch and I use it for specific stuff. Yes, it’s nice to switch the song on your spotify or apple lusic feom your watch or replying to a message just with your voice and talking to the watch like Maxwell Smart or James Bond, but again, the radiation. Plus, I don’t need to be monitored in many areas all the time if u know what I mean. And last, I don’t use most of the apps constantly. I want a rugged, strong and reliable buddy who will go with me through everything and that’s my King Square Casio. I don’t need to take it off to charge it and plug it on the wall, it charges up even with my night lamp! It has 5 alarms, snooze function, chronometer, stop watch, time zone, daylight savings, solar powered… and it can resist almost anything! You can go through a tornado with this guy on your wrist and chances are higher for it to come out better than yourself 😆 Size? Well, it’s big, but it’s not that big. If you have a 7 inch wrist or wider, you’re set. It’s called the Dark Knight, how cool is that? Don’t hesitate, get it and enjoy!
