G-Shock GMW-BZ5000 Series Video Review by WatchDavid
November 6, 2025
Those who are trying to save money may wish to avoid the WatchDavid channel (youtube.com/@WATCHDAVIDde), as his videos always make the watches look a lot more enticing compared to viewing static images. David continues the trend with his video review of the full metal G-Shock GMW-BZ5000 series, which is the first full metal line with an MIP (Memory In Pixel) LCD display. The video, featuring David’s usual macro and wrist shots, covers each version-the silver GMW-BZ5000D-1 (negative display), gold GMW-BZ5000GD-9 (positive display), and black/gold GMW-BZ5000BD-1 (negative display)-highlighting display clarity, case finishing, pricing, and stainless steel construction details. David also pits these models against the high-end MRG-B5000, examining visibility under various lighting and daily usability. Key features addressed include solar power, Bluetooth connectivity, Multi-Band 6, app integration, dual time zones, customizable display font, and robust build quality. The video concludes by noting the standout legibility and premium feel of the MIP display models, suggesting they set a new standard for G-Shock fans while maintaining exceptional value for the price. WatchDavid also states that he is planning to make another video about the GMW-BZ5000 functions.
