    ok then found this

    7. G-Shock G-5600 Series | 2002



    G-Shock G-5600 Series takes the classic G-Shock square and adds Tough Solar and waveceptor technology to is. The quality of the band and crystal is also better, so is the module, which has features like world time and 5 alarms.

    also seems my square dw5600 could be from 1997 maybe

    4. G-Shock DW-5600 Series | 1987



    G-Shock DW-5600 Series is THE G-Shock square series that's most widespread around the world. It is the longest-running and the most successful G-Shock square series ever launched.
    The series started in 1987 when the first G-Shock model DW-5000C was outfitted with a different module and dial. The type indication became DW-5600C, which still had the solid metal inner casing to damp eventual shocks towards the movement.
    Finally, in 1996 Casio changed the construction of the G-Shock DW-5600 to become an all-plastic casing with just a metal case back. The DW-5600E was born and has been going strong ever since as the most popular G-Shock square model.
    DW-5600 series has an insane amount of sub-series and limited edition models. While I've included most of the individual G-Shock variations below, here are the two most popular DW-5600 sub-series as well (courtesy of Taipeigeek's blog).

    possible strange place to have it between the space and side of stem in or out don't make a diff but thinking you may have a point as a small hole on the spacer that fit it perfect so yeah might have been an alarm version too
