I’d love to get more G-Shocks in this [style](https://g-shock.jp/products/origin/gmw-b5000/ https://g-shock.jp/products/origin/gmw-b5000/) but they are too damn expensive. $100 is my range for a watch but some of these are $500+! I don’t know why Casio charges so much. I’d think that if they reduced the price then people would buy more. The other annoying thing about G-Shocks is the band. I have a all-black model with a clasp link band. I love it. It’s super easy to remove and put back on when I’m using they keyboard.

they are solar, stainless steel, with no moving parts. which means they are practically indestructible without any need for maintenance. that's why they are sold at that price point

There are kits on Aliexpress/Taobao (I'm guessing Amazon as well) where you can convert any 5600/5610 to a metal bracelet. It has the casio and g-shock branding, so you have to be OK with a bit of light piracy. =) I did it last year and the version I got was really high quality. The buttons are a bit small on 5600/5610 though, so they are a bit harder to press.
