It's been a long time since Casio appeared the absolute first G-Shock computerized watch, and its most recent watch is the brand's most loyal entertainment to date. The new G-Shock DW-5000R is outwardly close indistinguishable from the first DW-5000C sent off in 1983 — directly down to the length, and dimple situating on the watch tie.


The rough allure of the first DW-5000C conveys a lot of nostalgic appeal, however it was an original idea when it initially sent off. Its maker, Casio engineer Kikuo Ibe, was roused to make a harm safe watch after his mechanical watch broke on the ground when it tumbled off his wrist. The subsequent G-Shock configuration was planned to have "triple 10" obstruction — meaning a battery duration of a decade, water opposition of 10 bar, and fit for enduring a 10-meter drop. G-Shock proceeded to become one of most notorious watch brands on the planet with a solid relationship with streetwear culture.

In a public statement, Casio says the DW-5000R is a "more significant level of proliferation" than a portion of its past reissues sold in restricted amounts — recommending it very well may be a long-lasting installation in the G-Shock setup. There are a couple of minor contrasts, notwithstanding: the case size has somewhat expanded to 42.3mm from 41.6mm, the buttons are more limited than the first, and the "water stand up to" figure peruses "20 BAR" rather than "200M," for instance.


A few particulars have gotten a cutting edge update, for example, another Drove backdrop illumination and the utilization of "biomass plastic" on the bezel and band to lessen natural effect. In any case, the case is as yet produced using tempered steel and it has overall similar highlights you'd expect, including a stopwatch clock, a multi-utilitarian caution, and a schedule show.

A more definite side-to-side correlation between the entertainment and the first can be tracked down on Casio's Japanese site.


The G-Shock DW-5000R will be accessible in Japan on December thirteenth, evaluated at 33,000 yen (about $217). We've gotten some information about worldwide accessibility and US valuing and will refresh on the off chance that we hear back.
