I currently have a 5600 and have been tempted by this negative display offering with a nice red strap accent
DW-5600HR-1ER
Just put the last of my automatic analogue watches on eBay. Sold two old Oris's, one Hamilton and gave my Nomos Club and a 9ct gold Tissot to my son. Just another Hamilton to go then I'll just have my G Shock 5610. Thinking about getting another square possibly with a reverse LCD screen. Any recommendations? <br />

Beginning of Sept the 35th anniversary watches are released and there is a negative display GW-5000 (I know there is already a standard reverse display 5000, but this is a new release/special edition)

I've never get along with negative displays (G-shocks and others). Might be a nice look but IMO legibility is always poor.
Some negative displays are easier to read than others.
Not got on with most of them myself, but kept one which is fine.
I don't recall the model number, but it has a very useful vibrate alarm
I like the GD350, I bought my '-8' variant primarily as a travel watch. The illumination is excellent and I've very recently discovered that the vibration alarm does wake me up.
The inverted display version looks pretty legible.
GW-7900-1ER, same key functionalities as 5610 (solar/multiband 6) but in a different and rather attractive packaging. It wears very well too thanks to special wings fitted underneath the head.
Here's negative display version (GW-7900B-1ER) which is nice too.

I use the vibrate alarm when I am on Night shifts.
The alarm goes off at 0149.
Importantly it always wakes me up, but equally important, it doesn't wake her ladyship!

DW-5600HR has a nice clear 'white text' inverted display.
Really like this but can't find any for sale in the UK. There are a few on eBay but they all seem to be outside Europe so, import charges seem a bit too high.

Love my beater summer watch GR-8900A. They can be a little hard to read sometimes but find there good in bright light and also a flick of the wrist and the back light comes on which I find very useful.
It should be or maybe it is but I believe there is another g shock which got the stormtrooper name before this.
