When you think of the best watches, there's probably a fairly specific range of products in your mind. Your holy grail might be crafted from precious metals, or have a beautifully intricate automatic movement within.
But that doesn't always have to be the case. While brilliant watch collections are flush with fantastic pieces, almost every single one also features a humble G-Shock. It's not exactly a surprise, either. The range has always been synonymous with ruggedness and reliability, making them a perfect beater watch.
Now, the range has been updated with a new collection. In collaboration with the Charles Darwin Foundation, the GW-B5600 model takes on three new finishes.
On the case back, you'll find the Charles Darwin Foundation logo engraved. Then, on the band, the words "I support Galapagos conservation" are found in Spanish. Each purchase sees some of the proceeds donated to the project, too.
Elsewhere you'll find a 5 setting world time function, with 39 potential time zones and automatic summer time switching. There's also a stopwatch, a timer, 5 daily alarms and an hourly time signal, an LED backlight and a full automatic calendar which will run until the year 2099.
The model will be available soon. And, if you're looking for a G-Shock to evolve your collection, this is a fine option.
