My trusty beater AWG101.
Solar, radio time signal, chrono, alarm etc etc. 16 years and still ticking on….
Also there are other options out there that might appreciate in a few years…..

Currently shopping for my 12yo son who has hijacked my favourite GW-M5610



This has it all as far as I'm concerned: G-Shock pedigree, retro looks, solar powered and radio timed - It's my all day beater

Or do I buy another or go for something different but similar specs - that'll be the GA-B2100



Sounds like your nephew is twice the size of my boy so could probably carry off one of the Tonka varieties - but I'd make sure you have solar and either radio or bluetooth so can relay on it being spot on correct all it's life

Happy Shopping

Can’t go wrong with the classic DW5600. Plus your nephew can set it to military time, extra cool factor for a teenage boy. Takes a beating and the nicks on the rubber make me happy my vintage pieces are safe and sound at home.

The best gshock to me is either Rangeman which is like GShock+Protek ie ABC sensors in gshock case along with solar battery and multi band time keeping OR old faithful GW6900 which has solar battery and atomic timekeeping!
