The Casio G-Shock DW-5000R-1AER is a fresh version of Casio’s original G-Shock launched back in 1983, and it’s now available again on the Casio UK website for £179 (about $218.46). This model has been buzzing since its initial release in November 2024, honoring the classic design while adding modern materials and technology.
Classic Design with a Modern Touch
The DW-5000R keeps the iconic square shape, screw-down case back, and the distinctive brick-pattern display from the first model. The case and band are crafted from bio-based resin, highlighting Casio’s commitment to using more sustainable materials. This aligns with recent efforts from the company. The watch is equipped with a high-brightness LED backlight for better visibility, and it features a slightly bigger case size of 42.3mm.
Built for Durability
Designed for tough conditions, this watch boasts a water resistance of 200 meters and Casio’s shock-resistant design, enhancing its durability. Additional features include a stopwatch, countdown timer, various alarms, and options for both 12 and 24-hour time formats.
A Testament to Craftsmanship
Produced in Yamagata, Japan, the DW-5000R stands as a testament to the quality and engineering excellence that G-Shock is renowned for. It’s currently available on the G-Shock UK website, but be quick! It sold out pretty fast the last time it was available, so you might want to act swiftly this time.
