In 1983, Casio launched the shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch. This product shattered the notion that watches were fragile jewelry that needed to be handled carefully. It was also the result of Casio engineers taking on the challenge of creating the world's toughest watch. With three protective designs for the parts, module, and case, the G-SHOCK offered a remarkable type of watch that was unaffected by strong shocks and vibrations. Its practicality was quickly recognized, and its unique appearance, embodying its functionality, became extremely popular, leading to explosive sales in the early 1990s. In recent years, the G-SHOCK has further improved its durability with various sensors, solar-powered radio control technology (explained below), and new materials. By constantly adopting the latest technology and continuing to rethink conventional watches, the G-SHOCK brand has become Casio's flagship watch product.
