Essentials
Published on 19 May 2022
G-SHOCK was born in 1983 by challenging the notion of a watch as a fragile piece of jewellery to be handled with care. From then, G-SHOCK has continued to evolve uniquely and support challengers. In this page, we would like to share what our “Essentials” are.

#NeverGiveUp
Challenging the accepted notions and shaping the new normal.
When Casio entered the timepiece business in the 1970s, a watch was a delicate piece of equipment that could not be dropped. The shock-resistant G-SHOCK, launched in 1983, overturned the accepted notion of what a watch is.
#Toughness
SHOCK RESISTANCE
Based on a realization that "shocks are not transmitted inside a bouncing rubber ball," the structure was designed to let the module float inside the case, relieving shocks transmitted from outside.
WATER RESISTANCE
It can be used in a variety of places and situations, from daily water work and showers to water activities such as swimming, surfing and jet skiing.
#Culture
Co-creating with culture
G-SHOCK has impacted the world of street culture with its toughness, functionality and bold unique design. Resonating with cultures such as fashion, art, music, and sports, we have conveyed its appeal through support and collaboration with them.
