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.

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.
