    Who stocks Casio watches (surrey)

    I want to go in a shop and try on a few casio g-shocks (with a view to buying, not just for a laugh), - can anyone recommend a shop in surrey that has good stock of them? The g-shock store locator only tells me about Carnaby street.

    As a bonus, any g-shock recommendations for my petite 7" wrists would be greatly appreciated also 😂

    Many thanks & enjoy the weekend

    Argos. Free returns.

    Online. Buy them all, return what you don't like

    As mentioned Argos is a good shout. Casio GWM5610U-1ER is the perfect G-Shock. The strap is not comfortable at the beginning but after a few months is more comfortable/flexible.

    My kids have just bought me one last week. Shown here on my 7” wrist.

    I agree about the bracelet but it’s ok and it probably will soften after use. A search on here reveals the best option for comfort is the ‘combi bracelet’ or maybe a Barton silicon.

    As suggested - Argos - and if you can be bothered by signing up to their email notifications you get a £5 discount code.

    You're unlikely to find the full range anywhere, but most of the chain high st jewellers stock some and, as others have said, so do bigger Argos stores (Are there even such a thing as dedicated Argos stores any more?)

    Thank you everyone for the great info much appreciated!

    I do like that 5610, - was also looking at this, I fancy a green or something other than black just for a bit of variety on my wrist. Not sure if white is too blingy!? And would this one fit a 7 incher?

    I have the 5610 (same as Eddiex above) and my wrist is flat 6 inches. The 5610 is really comfortable.

    I very much like this combination below. Shame the green doesn't come with a solar panel, however, I cannot seem to find this square 5600 in green with the classic dial even without solar?

    Think the strap is a zulu strap?

    Squares rock IMO and generally fit all wrist sizes

    Loads of choices, so basically try one square on and you're more or less set to go online and pick your preferred combination. Maybe try on a plastic one and a metal one for comparison.

    They pop up regularly on Sales Corner too.

    That's a modified watch build.

    The other tip is to get hold of a strap from a GW-5000, it's noticeably softer and more flexible than the 5610 strap, and is an exact fit. I alternate between that and the combi bracelet on mine.
