A BRIELF HISTORY
OF G-SHOCK WATCHES
The G-Shock Origin story begins back in 1981 when Kikuo Ibe, the then head watch designer at Casio, had a longing wanted to make an unbreakable watch, especially when dropped. The small team of engineers had three key design criteria, the watch had to be able to withstand a 10 meter drop and 10 atmospheres of water pressure, and it had to have a battery life of ten years. This was called the triple ten.
As gravity was the force that typically damaged a dropped watch, he settled on the name G-SHOCK.
“Never give up”, the mantra of Kikuo Ibe, resulted in two years of drop-testing ideas, and prototypes before what was then known as “Team Tough” created a design and architecture that withstood the forces and survived as designed, the DW-5000C was born!
The DW-5000C wasn’t an immediate success, but after an inspired advert on US TV where the watch subscribed for a Ice Hockey puck, the legend was truly born!
