BACK GROUND
The G-SHOCK Drop Test Prototype
The G-SHOCK brand story begins in 1981 with father of G-SHOCK IBE Kikuo’s vision of constructing “a watch that wouldn’t break even if dropped.” While the initial assumption was that this could be achieved by affixing rubber to a metal case, in reality , it did not turn out to be such a simple task. A lengthy series of experiments were then conducted, affixing ever more shock-absorbing rubber to the case, until a prototype was arrived at - one that had a 50% chance of surviving a 10-meter drop. But by this point, the “watch” was almost the size of a softball. This is what is known as the G-SHOCK Drop Test Prototype.
The DW-5600
Heir to the DW-5000 — the iconic first-ever G-SHOCK that debuted in 1983 — the DW-5600 is the base model of the 5600 line.
The digital DW-5600 features a design in the iconic form of G-SHOCK — a brand of toughness-driven watches that deliver continual innovation and advancement by tirelessly pursuing the ultimate in strength.
