DW-5600E is the basic (but still great!) no frills square.
Tells the time, has alarms and stop watches, counts up and down, an auto backlight, and calendar to 2039. It's dive rated to 200 meters, and has an electronic luminescent backlight, much like indiglo if you have a Timex.
GWM-5610 is all of the above, along with world time, and has the two biggest features for some: solar charging and atomic radio syncing.
For many, this is the THE "square." It's robust, self sufficient, and has a classic look without looking too dated or too ultra modern. The display is slightly different than the 5600E.
GLX-5600 is most similar to the budget 5600E above but has an additional bit of display for tide and moon information. Still as tough, still as cool looking.
GLS-5600 is a more recent, stylish variant of the 5600E. It come in 4 neat colors (black, white, green, and sand) and features a moving seconds complication on the face. Also, it features a "Low Temp LCD," this LCD is rated to go to -20 C. Honestly as you're wearing it on your person, a normal 5600E can go pretty cold as it also has your body heat. Possibly most importantly for some people, this model comes standard with strap adapters and a really comfy clothes NATO strap standard.
GWM-5610-1BJF is the Japanese only, blacked out model of the radio/solar 5610. These can be imported pretty easily through Amazon, so of cost isn't an issue, don't let the import bother you. The Japanese models also usually feature slightly more supple, softer resin straps and a screwback case, like on a mechanical time piece.
While not exclusively a 5600, if you need a big honkin' watch, the GX-56 is basically a thick 5600. Huge buttons and case, has all of the features of a 5610 with a cool moving seconds graphic like the GLS.
Many of these can be found in various colors and feature variants, so as a recap/guide:
5600 - standard square G Shock
5610 - radio/solar square model
GLX - surfing/tide model
GLS - stylish colors, comes with NATO strap
GX-56 - huge "King" G Shock
BB after model number - blacked out model
JF after model number - Japan import
Hopefully this helped. I had a lot of fun making this.
Did you consider the King Shock GXW1b that has the positive display for more readability? https://www.amazon.ca/CASIO-watch-G-SHOCK-MULTIBAND-GXW-56-1BJF/dp/B06ZYG51WC/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=GXW-56-1BJF&qid=1571307084&sr=8-4#customerReviews
