Leaked Casio G-Shock GBX-H5600 graphic reveals May release for fitness-tracking watch
A leaked promotional graphic from @morgan_gshock has given the most detailed look yet at the Casio G-Shock GBX-H5600-1DR. The image looks to be a page from an internal product catalog, and it basically confirms the watch is slated for a May 2026 release. This model will be the first official integration of Casio's fitness-tracking sensors into the surfing-focused G-Lide line - essentially a hybrid of the DW-H5600 and the GBX-100 series,
As per the graphic, the GBX-H5600-1DR utilizes module 3586 and is housed in a resin chassis with a Carbon Core Guard structure. This version gets a translucent resin bezel paired with a black strap. The face features a high-contrast Memory-in-Pixel (MIP) LCD, which should be great for displaying a complex array of tide graphs, moon phases, and real-time biometric data.
The graphic icons also verify that the watch has an optical heart rate sensor, a 3-axis accelerometer for step counting, and blood oxygen (SpO2) monitoring. It also confirms a "Super Illuminator" white LED and mineral glass protection. Also, as expected, the watch will be "Solar Powered" while having a "Rechargeable Battery." This confirms the hybrid charging approach we've seen in recent G-Squad models: solar panels should procure enough current for basic timekeeping and notifications, but the power-intensive heart rate sensor and Bluetooth features need a dedicated USB charging cable included in the package.
The "MAY" tag in the graphic means we could see an official announcement very soon, ahead of the probable Japanese market launch next month. Also, the asset does not list a specific price point for the watch.
