TIMELESS IN TOUGHNESS

The 6900 series. You cannot mention G-SHOCK without touching on its line of unforgettable collections: the 6900 series. With its rounded form a departure from the squared design of the original DW-5000 model, the series won fans as a "Triple Graph" model upon its 1995 debut and has steadfastly remained just as popular to this day.
New designs and features drawn from global cultures make the 6900 series a diverse branch on the G-SHOCK family tree.
A quarter-century after its debut, the 6900 series has evolved even further — now with the covered metal model. This new style keeps the series' key design factors—rounded shape, "Triple Graph", front button—while adding a stainless steel bezel with quality finish for fresh new colour, material, and finish. The result is a watch with an appearance that radiates an original presence and individuality.
Evolving and remaining constant: the mark of strength that surpasses time. Enter the new age of the 6900.

LEGACY OF 6900

FOUR FACTORS FOR 6900 MODELS KEEPS BEING LOVED

In the centre: the first 6900 series model DW-6900-1V from 1995, above: the first G-Shock model with a shock-resistant structure from 1983, left: the first ‘Triple Graph’ display of the DW-5900C-1 and right: the first ‘front button’ for the backlight

A perfect circle has the greatest surface area given the same circumference, so Casio drew on that form for the design code in most efficiently putting together the necessary elements of shock-resistant construction. Dial, case, bezel, Triple Graph: using this universal shape throughout the exterior makes for a highly finished design that will resonate for generations to come.

ROUND CASE

All form lines are designed in concentric circles from the inner bezel ring to the outer ring, and even the button guards protect from either side. The conical bevel of the bezel keeps the profile from looking too bulky and reduces interference with the wrist.

TRIPLE GRAPH

Three circular graphics work in tandem to enrich the LCD face, adding features like a stopwatch and a seconds display for the kind of ingenious face design only a digital watch could have.

DIAL

Layering the dial on top of the LCD provides design possibilities an all-LCD face cannot offer. Decorative touches like coating, printing, and surface finish allow for a rich variety of models.

FRONT BUTTON

Designed and developed to control the backlight, its sense of stability lifts it out of a merely functional role and cements it as an icon of strength on the G-SHOCK's exterior. It is grounded in precise design, balancing the button guards and in a shape and angle that is easy to press.
