In a tribute to its predecessor, this G-SHOCK watch adopts an octagonal shape, a hallmark also found on the original DW-5000C model. However, this is not just a stylistic tribute, but a testament to a commitment to simplicity and robustness. Every detail has been meticulously designed to eliminate any superfluous elements and maintain a structure that will stand the test of time and intensive use. What is really surprising is its slimness, with a profile that barely reaches 11.8 mm. How is such a feat of engineering achieved? The answer lies in an extraordinarily rigid resin that incorporates carbon fibers in the construction of the 48 mm case, providing a perfect combination of lightness and durability.
