G-SHOCK GW5000U-1 – 5000 Series Tough Solar Multi Band 6

The G-SHOCK GW5000U-1 represents the evolution of the very first G-SHOCK (DW5000C, 1983), combining original square design DNA with modern high-performance technology. Built with a solid metal case and screw-lock back, and enhanced by Tough Solar and Multi Band 6 radio-controlled timekeeping, this model delivers precision, durability, and premium finishing in a timeless form.

Design & Construction

True to the original 1983 concept, the GW5000U-1 features a stainless steel core structure with a screw lock back for enhanced strength. The metal case and screw back are treated with DLC (Diamond-Like Coating) for superior wear resistance, while the screw back is also mirror-processed for a refined finish. The resin band uses soft urethane for comfortable everyday wear, balancing toughness with comfort.
