The description that this watch band fits Casio G-Shock is incorrect. I purchased this item to replace the original 16-mm band of a Casio G-Shock Model DW-5600E (The Classic). The Timex TX16G14 does not properly fit this watch. The 16-mm width is correct but the recesses molded into the band where it inserts into the body of the watch (at the spring bars) are not large enough to properly seat the band. The spring bars can be forced into place but the watch band then rigidly sticks out on both sides of the watch in the same plane as the watch body, and doesn't wrap snugly around the wrist (i.e., there is a large gap between the band and one's wrist on either side of the watch body). Subsequent research on other websites show that the various G-Shock watches have specific fitments for the 16- and 18-mm bands. I recommend identifying the Casio model number for the band that properly fits your watch and order the original factory band (which is more expensive) instead of this generic ill-fitting item. I did so and the new replacement band (with Casio factory replacement band number 71601288) fits perfectly.

The band seems to be of good quality. Unfortunately it did not fit my g-shock watch. The size and everything is correct, but the place between the pin hole and the watch i to thick, so I'm unable to insert the pin with the band into the pin holes in the watch.

This band does fit my Casio DW5600E-1V G-Shock fine (good watch, by the way).

The installation is a bit difficult: Have a small thin knife and tiny flat-blade & Phillips screwdrivers handy, plus a good light and, if you're like me, reading glasses. I began by removing the outer plastic shell by removing the two small screws on each side and gently prying the shell up and over the buttons on one side. This makes access to the band rather easier. Then use the knife edge to retract the springbar out of its hole on one side. Slide the new (included) springbar into the band and install into the watch by getting one end of the springbar into its hole, then use the tiny flat-blade to hold in the other end while sliding the band end into its space. You have to push a bit, maybe with the screwdriver, to get the second end to spring into its hole.

The whole thing is not as hard as it sounds - I did it in ten minutes.

Other than that, it's a $5 watchband which I couldn't find locally (wanted to resume wearing the watch immediately) and it works - what else can one say about a watchband? I may order another as a spare - I wear the watch 24/7 and seem to be hard on bands.

It does fit the g-2300, slightly different than original ( doesn't conform to the wrist as closely) but the price was right and the shipping was speedy.

Require some minor trimming to fit my GW-5600J but looks very good.
If you have a large wrist the trimming may not be needed.
It seems to be more flexible than the original one too.
Not bad for the price $6.95 I paid compared with $16 original.
I would recommend it.

It fit, but is very flimsy and thinner than the original. So much so that there is a slight gap between the band and the watch. The gap is very much evident when I bend my wrist.

Fits fantastic. Just keep and use the old Casio pins, as they are definitely better than the ones included with the band. The band, however, works perfectly and is high-quality. Should last every bit as long as the original Casio one, which went about 2.5 or 3 yrs before the notch that I use most in the band broke all the way through.

-just purchased one of these and received it this week. Not bad. About 1/3 the price of a genuine 'Casio' band for this particular watch (DW 5600E). It's
just SLIGHTLY different in construction than the original band, but does fit, and
looks ok on the watch. Going to give this 4 out of 5 stars.

Says it fits ALL Casio watches. We took it in to a jewelers to get the new bands put on and it didn't fit. How upsetting!

I bought this for my Casio G-Shock 9052, it fit perfectly, but a little hard to put it into the right place, took me several tries
