A couple of weeks ago, I blogged one of the smaller G-Shock watches in the DW-6xx range. I have 3 different versions and had planned to blog them in numerical order, but picked up the wrong one this morning. So here is the DW-620.
The DW-620 was released in December 1994, and was one of only a few (and the last) small G-Shocks that were released before the Baby-G range was started. One site I've seen also suggested that this version was also nicknamed London
The watch has a 1419 module with an LCD display. The main display has two lines with the date in 4 digits along the top, and a 6 digit time display (with a squashed first digit in 24-hr mode). There is also a small 5x5 dot matrix LCD panel above the time which normally shows a large G that rotates (for 2 sec) every 10 seconds. This display also shows sequential letters of the mode that the watch is in when not in time mode (AL, TR, ST), and when the el-backlight is activated, it displays a dancing stick-man who sits down at the end.
Apart from the time, the watch has alarm, timer, and stopwatch.
