Casio G-SHOCK 5000 Series 48.9mm X 42.3mm Mens Watch

MPN: DW-5000R-1AER

DW-5000 The OG is back! Introducing the DW-5000R - a masterful re - creation of the first - ever G-SHOCK. Celebrating over 40 years of groundbreaking design and technological advancements, this new release pays homage to the iconic original. The top features which set it apart from the rest include the iconic screwdown caseback and original brick pattern dial with a stainless steel module under the rubber bezel. Iconic colour accents — red for determination, blue for water resistance, and yellow for shock resistance — remain true to the classic model, as does the signature brick pattern symbolising toughness. Launched on April 12, 1983, the first G-SHOCK revolutionised the watch industry with its unparalleled shock resistance, surpassing ISO standards and thriving in extreme conditions — from intense athletic use to the vibrations of power tools like jackhammers and chainsaws. Beyond its advanced durability, the original G-SHOCK gained acclaim for its bold, distinctive design. This legacy was solidified in 2023 when the Japan Patent Office granted Casio a 3D trademark for the shape of the iconic watch — a first for wristwatches in Japan. Enhanced features like a high-brightness LED backlight and an updated 42.3 mm case size blend modern functionality with timeless aesthetics. The new DW-5000R pays meticulous tribute to its predecessor while integrating cutting-edge G-SHOCK technologies. Its stainless steel case and bio-based resin band replicate the original's design, right down to the dimples and details. Manufactured by master engineers at Yamagata Casio, the birthplace of G-SHOCK, the DW-5000R embodies respect for the craftsmanship that created the original while advancing the brand’s legacy of constant innovation. With features such as 20-bar water resistance, a shock-resistant structure, and essential functions like a stopwatch, countdown timer, and alarms, this model reinforces G-SHOCK's trailblazing vision of durability, design, and performance.
