The Casio GMN-550-1B is a G-SHOCK mini, the shrunken line Casio launched in 2009 for wrists the full-size cases do not suit. The GMN-550 miniaturises the G-5500 square, and the reduction is not purely one of scale: where the full-size square hides its switches under moulded resin, the mini fits exposed buttons at the case flanks, easier to work but costing it the parent model's mud resistance. It also drops Tough Solar for a CR1616 cell. Sold through fashion channels rather than the watch catalogue, it carries no manufacturer specification, so no maker's record fixes this reference's date, colour name or module. (Sjors, 50 Gs; G-Central)
