Move over King Arthur there's a new king in town! I'm not usually big on g-shocks as the previous one got flipped after 1 second on the wrist. I started searching around (
) and decided that maybe I should try out another G. Initially, I wanted a G from the Master of G series but decided that I wanted something with some spice in it. Big, loud, crazy colors, and most of all: fun to wear. I noticed Adam had posted a g-shock that seemed different. It was Big, loud, had a orange color, and looked like it could fit the criteria. I decided that the King G (GX-56) would be the one. Lo and behold I found an excellent price on Amazon for a black one...so I settled for black 
It arrived last tuesday and hasn't left the wrist since. It's been through hell and back in a week.
First night:
Can it handle a drunken man?
Well it passed with flying colors. Me: Well I've had better mornings
. Second Night:
Can it handle the pressure from a poker game?
Check
Third Day (as nighttime wouldn't work well here):
How about some poke checks, body collisions, and a intense game of lacrosse?
Check
Fourth Day:
Let's see if it can handle some water and trout/bass.
Check
It made sushi out of those fish. Fifth Day:
Holy Crap it truly is the King...it's bigger than the SEAL
Sixth Day:
A day of rest.
Seventh Day:
Can it handle DWC?
Well that's for you to decide
Overall, this wasn't a review...just my thoughts. It's met all of the criteria for me. It's become my workout watch, sports watch, etc and I'm thinking I'll keep atleast one G in the collection from here on out. This G has made me realize what the hype is all about.
PS: I didn't play poker with it, play lacrosse with it, or really do any of the events with it except the drunken night...
Just a fun way to give the king a proper introduction 
Good pictorial Alex. I've tried the King on at Macy's a while back. it's a huge bitch! Makes that SEAL look like a Datejust!
Couldn't return them since they had our colors/number/logo. Next season, when I went to sell them to a kid on the team, they changed the entire uniform 
I could`ve rocked that!...on my ankle 
I really don't think I could or would put up with that kind of abuse since I have gotten older.
