    Nice but at 51.1 × 44.5 × 17.4 mm over 4mm larger than the regular squares (46.7 × 43.2 × 12.7 mm).

    Yes, and the last thing I want to see on a watch is my heart rate.

    There are too many departures from the 5600 for me to like this one.

    First impression is I like it.

    I'll wait for some YT reviews.

    Much of the utility of watches that track activity, heart rate, etc. lies in the websites/apps they pair with. Apple, Fitbit et al have very robust applications the watch's data feeds into. Last time I looked into this (admittedly, some time ago) G-Shock did not. It may be, perhaps, compatible with some third-party apps.

    The watch itself looks cool.

    I am intrigued. This may be my next gym watch. I always wear a G anyway
