Casio’s G-Lide takes the G-Shock’s knock-about toughness to the beach, with tide information that gives the display a purpose beyond counting down to your next meeting. It’s a family rather than a single watch, and the choice between the compact GLX-5600 and the newer GBX-100 changes more than the look.

The GLX-5600 is the familiar square with tide and moon displays: a good fit if you want surf-minded functions without a phone connection. The GLX-6900 puts those functions into the larger, rounded 6900 format. For easier reading, seek out the GBX-100; its crisp MIP display and Bluetooth-assisted location settings make tide information more accessible. On the older models, getting the home-site and tidal settings right matters—an animated tide graph is only useful if it’s set for your stretch of coast. Treat it as a planning aid, not a substitute for local forecasts.
