G-SHOCK marks yet another milestone! Celebrate with a return to the brand’s original game-changing vision, now 40 years later and updated with today’s cutting-edge technologies.
In true G-SHOCK style, the DW-5000R stays true to G-SHOCK origins and yet forges ahead with innovation at the same time. Inheriting the design concepts of the first-ever G-SHOCK, this updated take on the original incorporates current state-of-the-art Casio technologies to deliver today’s advanced functionality in a supremely faithful re-creation of the original iconic design.
Just like the first, the case is made of stainless steel, and the original band design, too, is reproduced down to the smallest detail — length, form, and even the position of the dimples. The case size has been updated to 42.3 mm from the original 41.6 mm.
In a further nod to where G-SHOCK began and how far it has come, the bezel and band are, like the original, made with resin, but now bio-based. This material is expected to help reduce environmental impact.
1. Re-creating the original design of the first G-SHOCK, a milestone in wristwatch history
Since the birth of G-SHOCK over 40 years ago, the brand has maintained a commitment to constant innovation, developing a diverse product portfolio. The design concept of the original model embodied a forward-looking vision. Heir to that very spirit, this special new model, the DW-5000R, incorporates current state-of-the-art G-SHOCK technologies to revive the original iconic design with meticulous faithfulness.
The case is made of stainless steel, just like the original, and the band reproduces the original design too, down to details including its length, form, and even the position of the dimples. Marking a return to the brand’s original vision 40 years on, the design expresses the tireless G-SHOCK determination to keep blazing new trails into the future.
The bezel and band are made with resin, just like the original, but now they use bio-based resin, a material expected to help reduce environmental impact. The high-brightness LED backlight delivers enhanced watch readability. The case size has been updated to 42.3 mm from the original 41.6 mm.
2. Bezel meticulously re-creating the original design
The top surface displaying the “PROTECTION” lettering and “G-SHOCK” logo features a flat design faithfully reproducing the original model’s bezel.
3. Face design accented with red, blue, and yellow
Iconic color accents featured on the original model are faithfully reproduced: the G-SHOCK brand color, red, signifying a passionate determination to keep pushing the limits; blue, expressing the design’s impressive water resistance; and yellow, representing shock resistance. The iconic brick pattern is incorporated as well, evoking a sense of tough durability.
4. Beautifully mirror-polished case back
Inheriting the design concept of the first G-SHOCK down to the most subtle details, the screw-back case’s display layout and dynamic “Shock Resistant” lettering evoke the look of the original.
5. Yamagata Casio manufacturing
In an expression of respect for the highly skilled engineers who succeeded in crafting the first model, the watch is manufactured by master craftspersons and engineers at Yamagata Casio facilities — the “mother factory” of G-SHOCK — just like the original model.
6. Super Illuminator (high-brightness LED backlight) for maintaining watch readability in the dark
