G-SHOCK celebrates another major milestone — 40 years strong and still redefining toughness. Honoring the brand’s groundbreaking beginnings, this anniversary release fuses the iconic original vision with today’s cutting-edge technology.
Introducing the Casio G-Shock DW-5000R-1AJF: a perfect balance of heritage and innovation. Inspired by the very first G-SHOCK, the DW-5000C-1A, this modern reimagining preserves the core design philosophy while integrating advanced Casio tech for a bold, future-ready upgrade.
The stainless steel case stays true to the original, while the faithfully reproduced band matches the classic in length, shape, and even the exact placement of its signature dimples. Slightly upsized to 42.3 mm (from the original 41.6 mm), it brings a subtle modern touch without compromising its roots.
As a tribute to G-SHOCK’s journey and a step toward a more sustainable future, the bezel and band are crafted from bio-based resin — a new material choice that echoes the past while helping reduce environmental impact.
