G Shock watches have become an icon, famous for its unique strength. Were introduced into the watch market in the world in early 1980, and although not initially for the Japanese market have been quite successful abroad to give your production a line of extended life.
His reputation for being extremely robust timepieces combined with his bold style has proved a success and have become very popular. For hiswhen the shock G also represents a new approach to the watches were still considered fragile enough time generally fragile.
Casio Watches
The first was the number of DW-5000C was launched in April 1983 and was designed by Kikuo Ibe.
Its features are:
Selling price: 11,400 yen (including tax) structure with a high impact (shock resistance) 20 pressure waterproof resin band lives Timer (1 / 100 seconds, for a total of 60 minutes, rap, over time after the alarm ) Timer(Combo Drive: 1 minute, in order to: 11 hours 59 minutes, measured in seconds), with the remaining life of the battery life alarm when alarm bells about seven years Automatic Calendar 12/24 hour switch
want the lord of the OIE to create an indestructible watch was partly motivated by traumatic childhood experience. When a student who had received a beautiful clock as a gift from his father who accidentally fell and was shattered on the floor.
hard at work in his laboratoryoutside Tokyo, Mr. Ibe create new prototypes for the constant experimentation. "Day after day I'd like to prototype and fall from the window"
Through a moment of inspiration finally hit upon the idea of a "floating module configuration" as a result of seeing a girl playing with a rubber ball in the park near where I lived.
The "float configuration module" used a gap between the case and the movement as a way to provide shock absorption. With the support ofmovement in a minimum number of points of the movement was actually floating.
This was combined with an increase in the damping of the key. The use of this innovative type of technology is needed because, as Cassius says, "If we try to absorb the shock enclose the form with the resin or other materials, the case could grow to immense proportions."
The glass and buttons are also connected to protect against impact urethane, urethane with protrudingwell above the glass to protect it. Although the band is designed to act as a buffer with a special blend of polyurethane resin and made to be resistant to scratches. If the watch is dropped, the band also helps to inhibit the damage by using a range of 150 degrees of movement.
Triple Ten Development
Casio engineers set three guiding principles as part of its strategy project, called "ten triple" the development has been to try to create a clockthat could withstand a fall of 10 meters, is water resistant to 10 bar and have a battery life of 10 years.
The engineering team has created more than 200 experimental prototypes and spent more than two years of trials before finally achieving his goal.
Masters of G
As part of its future development Casio has introduced the high-end models that show the new technologies for the different activities and usually have special qualities of resistance. These watches became Shock Gknown as "masters of the G-series.
Identified by the suffix "man" and water resistance to 200 meters, the first of these was the "diver", also known as DW-5500C, which was created with divers in mind, launched in 1993 is almost certainly the oldest watches g shock. Other models such as the Gaussman was against the ISO-magnetic.
Flagship Watch
Casio G Shock are now 's iconic and better tracking of sales and most are still very popularlimited editions only further adding to its attractiveness and convenience.
