Casio G-Shock 35th Anniversary Limited Edition Digital Silver Full Metal Men's Watch GMW-B5000GD-1ER This Casio G-Shock Watch GMW-B5000GD-1ER celebrates G-Shocks 35 year accession into becoming one of the most recognisable watches. This model is a reiteration of the timeless GMW-B5000 watch. It still bares the same design, but it is the first all metal 5000. This timepiece offers you lots of look at a little price. The Case: The case measures at 43.2mm across and 13mm in thickness, retaining the same dimensions as resin GMW-5000s. The case is tank like, as it is water resistant up to 200 metres, it is able to endure extreme temperatures and it is virtually indestructible. The bezel of the watch is fixed, which adds to the durability of the watch as most watches tend to have an attached bezel. Notably, the bezel is raised which provides extra protection to the mineral crystal glass. Also, the pattern next to the bezel is the solar cells that power the movement. The majority of the steel case is polished, but the bezel is vertically brushed, a nod to traditional watchmaking. The contrast between the brushed and polished surfaces is particularly pleasing. It is a technique that is typical to high end watches, such as the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. This illustrates the craftsmanship that has gone into this watch. The Bracelet: The steel integrated bracelet contributes greatly to how the watch looks. It measures at 25mm wide at the point that it effortlessly meets the case. The bracelet tapers down to 18mm which harmonises the aesthetics. Interestingly, the bracelet consists of spring bars rather than conventional push pins, allowing for greater flexibility. In regards to the design of the bracelet, there are small circular indentations near the edges of each link, this harks back to the old design of the resin models. The bracelet fastens using a folding clasp, that features a G-Shock engraving. The Dial and Functions: The dial is strictly digital and the LCD display is powered by solar power. At full charge the watch can operate for 22 months. Significantly, the watch uses a super-twisted nematic display with neutral-coloured background, making the display highly legible. The time is display is in digitsand features a day date function. In addition to these standard functions the watch offers a plethora of advanced functions. This includes a B luetooth functions, a countdown timer that can measure from 1 second up to 24 hours, a stopwatch with 1/100th of a second accuracy and split time functionality, 5 daily alarms (with 1 snooze alarm) and an hourly time signal, a world time function with ability to select 5 world times from 39 cities, as well as a full auto-calendar, and 12/24 hour format switching. These functions can be accessed using the buttons on the side of the watch, as well as through the app. All you have to do is sync the watch with G-Shock Connected app, you can do everything from setting reminders, to manually syncing atomic time with the push of a button. All of these features are extremely user-friendly.

After 200 prototypes and two years of development, the Casio G-Shock was launched in 1983. Gaining its now legendary toughness from Ibes revolutionary decision to suspend the module inside a hollow rubber structure, the G-Shock has been the go-to name in superbly durable and precise wristwear ever since. The Brand: Casio Casio was established in 1946 by Japanese engineer Tadao Kashio. The company entered the timepiece market in 1974 with the release of the Casiotron, the worlds first Auto Calendar watch. Only eleven years after entering this field, Casio completely reshaped global thought about the function a watch should perform with the release of the pioneering and now legendary G-Shock family. Innovation and world firsts have defined the companys history ever since. Thee most striking of these being the release of the first ever touch screen watch in 1991, 24 years before the Apple Watch, and the first ever wrist camera watch in 2000. In short, Casio was producing smartwatches decades before the term had even been coined. Add to this the hipster popularity of the companys retro designs, and Casio has firmly cemented its reputation as a famously reliable and precise name in both analogue and digital watches.
