In 1983, a Casio engineer named Kikuo Ibe built the watch he believed couldn't be broken. The DW-5000R stays true to the unbreakable G-SHOCK origins while forging ahead with innovation for the modern wearer. This update incorporates current Casio technologies to deliver advanced functionality in a supremely faithful re-creation of the original iconic design.
Just like the first, the case is made of stainless steel in Japan, and the original band design is reproduced down to the smallest detail — length, form, and even the position of the dimples.
