Why Choose the Casio G-SHOCK GWX-5700CS-1JF?

Built for the Ocean, Designed for Performance
The GWX-5700CS-1JF belongs to Casio’s G-LIDE series, developed specifically for extreme sports. Its standout feature? Tide and moon data tracking for 100+ pre-programmed beaches. Whether you’re timing your surf session or watching the moon rise over the water, this watch keeps you informed in real-time.

But it’s not just about tides. From solar power to atomic precision, the GWX-5700CS-1JF brings serious features in a retro-cool, wear-anywhere package.

G-LIDE Heritage with Tide & Moon Graphs

Perfect for Surf and Sea Conditions
At the heart of this model is its tide and moon phase graph—a must-have for surfers, anglers, and water sports enthusiasts. With tide data preset for major surf spots worldwide, the GWX-5700CS-1JF helps you plan the perfect session.

You’ll also find a graphical representation of moon phases. This adds another level of environmental awareness for ocean lovers who track tides and lunar cycles alike.

Multiband 6 Atomic Timekeeping

Always Accurate, Anywhere on Earth
Casio’s Multiband 6 technology ensures your time is always spot-on. The watch automatically receives radio signals from up to six transmitters worldwide—including Japan, the US, the UK, Germany, and China.

No matter where your next surf trip takes you, the GWX-5700CS-1JF self-adjusts to the local time with atomic precision. It's global timekeeping, simplified.

Tough Solar Charging Technology

Never Replace a Battery Again
This G-SHOCK uses Casio’s signature Tough Solar tech to convert sunlight or indoor light into energy. Once fully charged, it can last up to 10 months in complete darkness thanks to its power-saving functions.

Whether you’re under bright sun at the beach or inside a boardroom, it keeps running—without ever needing a battery change.

Shock Resistance in a Slim Profile

Ultra Durable, Surprisingly Compact
One of the rare slim models in the G-SHOCK lineup, the GWX-5700CS-1JF keeps the iconic round shape of the DW-5700 while offering a snug, comfortable fit for all wrist sizes.

The rugged resin case absorbs shock and protects internal components from vibration and impact. It’s designed to handle falls, knocks, and the intensity of outdoor sports without a hitch.

200M Water Resistance

Ready for Wet Conditions
Don’t worry about getting this G-SHOCK wet—it’s built for it. With 200 meters of water resistance, the GWX-5700CS-1JF is safe for swimming, snorkeling, or getting caught in the rain.

While it's not intended for scuba diving, it’s more than ready for all your surface water activities—plus it handles sweat and humidity with ease.

EL Backlight with Afterglow

See the Time Anytime, Anywhere
Need to check the tide graph or moon phase at night? The electro-luminescent (EL) backlight with afterglow makes everything easy to read in darkness.

The soft glow doesn’t strain the eyes but lights up the display clearly, even in pitch-black conditions like night beaches or low-lit trails.

Useful Everyday Features

More Than Just Surf Functions
While it’s made for surf culture, the GWX-5700CS-1JF fits seamlessly into daily life with practical features like:

• World Time: Displays time in 48 cities across 31 time zones.

• 5 Daily Alarms: Stay on schedule whether you’re at work or chasing waves.

• 1/100-Second Stopwatch: Perfect for timing sprints or activities to the second.

How to Use the Casio GWX-5700CS-1JF

Tide Graph Setup
To set your local tide data, simply choose your city or manually input your longitude, lunitidal interval, and time offset. Once programmed, the watch displays high and low tide times graphically.

Time Sync with Atomic Clock
In most locations, the watch automatically syncs once a day with an atomic clock signal. If you’re in a remote area, you can manually trigger synchronization using a button press.

Solar Charging Tips
To maintain charge, wear the watch in regular light. A few hours of outdoor sunlight each week will keep the battery full. Avoid leaving it in complete darkness for extended periods.

Design & Wearability

Retro Look with Modern Power
This model stays true to its 90s inspiration with a minimalist circular dial and monochrome LCD screen. The matte black resin band and case offer stealthy aesthetics, while the “Tide Graph” branding adds sport-specific flair.

The band is flexible yet strong, fitting securely without irritation. Lightweight and balanced, it feels natural on the wrist—whether you’re on the board or walking downtown.
