Is there such a thing as a small G-Shock? I'm looking around, and they all seem so bulky. Is there a small G-Shock available, that's preferably under or around the $50 range?
ETA: Also, preferably one that Walmart sells.
ETA2: My wrist size is 6 inches.

Search for "Baby G." They're not exactly small, but they're smaller than the regular G-Shocks.
 
Some of the Baby G are pretty small compared to the regular G Shocks, so it's definitively an option. A few days ago I was looking for one for my wife and there's quite a few that are smaller then 40 mm. Compared to most of the regular G Shocks that go from 42 to 50 mm, that is petit.

Do you know if Target or Walmart sells those?

They'll have some but not all models, so you might want to look online too.

If you see one that looks good except it's pink don't panic; you can probably get the same model in black.
 
Does it really have to be a G-Shock? I mean, in my experience even non-G-Shocks are quite tough.

Here's my W-753, which is 100m water resistant and shows, besides the common functions, moon phase, tide graph and sun direction. I've taken it with me on a couple of hiking trips the last months and I'm not worried of it getting wet, dirt or shocked. The only negative thing that I can think of is the light, it doesn't have the modern system, but a LED-light on one side of the display.

An other relative small G-Shock that I have is the GW-M850.

I realise the Pathfinders are a bit more expensive, but mine isn't very thick, compared to for example the GW-9600. And I learned on Watchuseek.com that those Pathfinders are really tough too.

I like the looks of the GW-M850. How big is it?
 
It is 13 mm thick and diameter is 43 mm. I should add that it is a bit more expensive than $50, mainly because it has tough solar and atomic time. Here is it on my wrist.

I'll look for it the next time I go to Walmart, thanks. Any other suggestions are welcome though.
