Industrial Strength: G-Shock Introduces Three Heavy-Duty Models in GA900 Collection
G-Shock watches are synonymous with toughness, born from their creator Kikuo Ibe’s dream of “creating a watch that never breaks.” More than 200 handmade prototypes were created and tested to destruction until finally, in April 1983, the first and now-iconic shock-resistant G-Shock DW-500C hit the streets of Japan and began to establish itself as “the toughest watch of all time.” In August 2017, parent company Casio reported that total worldwide shipments of its G-Shock watches had passed the one million mark. This week, G-Shock announced three new models in its industrial-inspired GA900 collection geared toward “supreme toughness and style.”
The new GA900C-1A4 models‘ band connection and buttons have knurled surfaces to prevent the watch from slipping off the wrist.
