  • What is the benefit of G-Shocks and what are not
    good things? With over 330 species to choose
    from, what is the best Gshock anyway?
  • For this G-shock review, I will do my best to
    answer these questions without minimizing the
    words. Well take a broader look at the entire
    G-shock collection along with some specific
    recommendations so you can get a solid idea of
    ??what G-Shocks is about.In nut shocks, G-shocks
    feature rugged and affordable watches, and are
    designed to demand outdoor playgrounds and
    heavy-duty professional applications such as
    military, diving, and law enforcement.
  • On the other hand, the G-shock watches are
    neither subtle nor luxurious nor smart. They
    are ruthless utilitarian and some models can be
    ugly and bulky.
  • G Shock has become an iconic watch, famous for
    its unique resistance. They were first introduced
    to the world watch market in the early 1980s, and
    although they initially failed in the Japanese
    market, they were successful enough abroad to
    give their production an extended lifeline.
  • Their reputation for being extremely robust
    watches combined with their bold style has proven
    to be a success among the public and they have
    become extremely popular. For its time, shock G
    also represented a new approach for wristwatches
    that were still generally considered fragile
    items at that time.
  • The first was the Casio G-Shock GA-700CM-8A model
    number, launched in April 1983 and designed
    by Kikuo Ibe.

  • Its specifications were
  • Sale price 11,400 yen (tax excluded) High impact
    structure (shock resistance) 20 waterproof resin

    total of 60 minutes, rap, with alarm time
    elapsed) Timer (Combined unit 1 minute, set for
    11 hours 59 minutes, measured in seconds), with
    the remaining alarm time Alarm time alarm Battery
    life of approximately seven years Automatic
    calendar Switch display system 12/24 hours
  • Mr. Ibes desire to create an unbreakable watch
    was partly motivated by a traumatic childhood
    experience. When he was a school boy, he had
    received a precious watch as a gift from his
    father, who accidentally dropped it and saw it
    shatter into pieces on the floor.
  • Working hard in his laboratory on the outskirts
    of Tokyo, Mr. Ibe creates new prototypes for
    constant testing Day after day, I would make
    prototypes and drop them from the window.
  • Through a moment of inspiration, he finally came
    up with the idea of ??a floating module
    configuration, as a result of seeing a girl
    playing with a rubber ball in the park near where
    she lived.
  • The floating module configuration used a hollow
    section between the box and the movement as a way
    of providing shock absorption. By supporting the
    movement on a minimum number of points, the
    movement effectively floated.
  • This was further combined with damping for key
    parts. The use of this innovative type of
    technology was necessary because, as Casio says
    If we tried to absorb the impacts simply by
    wrapping the module with urethane resin or other
    similar materials, the case would grow in immense
    proportions.
  • The glass and buttons were also enclosed in
    urethane to protect them from impacts, with the
    urethane protruding above the glass to protect
    it. Even the band has been designed to act as a
    shock absorber by using a special combination of
    urethane resin and scratch resistant. If the
    watch falls, the band also helps inhibit damage
    by using a 150 degree range of motion.

  • Triple Ten Development
  • Casio engineers established three guiding
    principles as part of their design strategy,
    called triple ten development, which consisted
    of trying to create a clock that could withstand
    a 10-meter drop, be water resistant to 10 bar and
    have a life 10 year battery life. .
  • The engineering team created more than 200
    experimental prototypes and spent more than two
    years testing them before finally achieving their
    goal.
  • G Masters
  • As part of its subsequent development, Casio
    introduced high-end models that show new
    technologies for different activities and
    generally have special resistance qualities.
    These G Shock watches became known as the G
    series masters.
  • Identified by a suffix man and with a water
    resistance of 200 meters, the first of them was
    the Frogman, also known as GA-700CM-8A, which
    was created taking into account divers, launched
    in 1993, is almost it sure is the longest g shock
    watch. . Other models such as the Gaussman were
    ISO certified antimagnetic.
  • Flagship watch
  • G shock has become Casios most iconic and
    best-selling watch and remains very popular with
    unique limited editions that add to its appeal
    and appeal.
