The Baby-G Story

Baby-G

Tough, Cute, Cool

With the launch of its first watch in 1974, Casio entered the wristwatch market at a time when the watch industry had just discovered digital technology. Armed with cutting-edge technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered the field confident it could develop timepieces that would push watch technology forward.

Baby G by Casio has the durability and toughness of G-shock but made for a today’s woman. Sleek and fashionable some are timeless design and others are cutting edge. All are priceless.

The Designs and colors are attuned to today’s fashions Baby G’s accentuate a shock-resistant and Water-resistant structure built for active use.

Some models in the Amazon.com line-up are equipped with radio-controlled timing to ensure precision time display and Tough Solar to convert light into ample operation power. All Baby G’s are shock resistant have water resistance from 50M up to 100M

Baby G - Sometimes cool, sometimes casual always a great timepiece that makes a fabulous statement about the person wearing it.

The Casio Story

In developing its own wristwatches Casio began with the basic question, "What is a wristwatch?" Rather than simply making a digital version of the conventional mechanical watch, we thought that the ideal wristwatch should be something that shows all facets of time in a consistent way. Based on this, Casio was able to create a watch that displayed the precise time including the second, minute, hour, day, and month — not to mention a.m. or p.m., and the day of the week. It was the first watch in the world with a digital automatic calendar function that eliminated the need to reset the calendar due the variation in month length. Rather than using a conventional watch face and hands, a digital liquid crystal display was adopted to better show all the information. This culminated in the 1974 launch of the CASIOTRON, the world’s first digital watch with automatic calendar. The CASIOTRON won acclaim as a groundbreaking product that represented a complete departure from the conventional wristwatch.

Casio transformed the concept of the watch — from a mere timepiece to an information device for the wrist — and undertook product planning based on this innovative idea. We developed not only time functions such as global time zone watches, but also other radical new functions using Casio’s own digital technology, including calculator and dictionary functions, as well as a phonebook feature based on memory technology, and even a thermometer function using a built-in sensor. The memory-function watches became our DATA BANK product series, while the sensor watches developed into two unique Casio product lines of today: the Pathfinder series displaying altitude, atmospheric pressure, and compass readings.

In 1983, Casio launched the shock-resistant G-Shock watch. This product shattered the notion that a watch is a fragile piece of jewelry that needs to be handled with care, and was the result of Casio engineers taking on the challenge of creating the world’s toughest watch. Using a triple-protection design for the parts, module, and case, the G-Shock offered a radical new type of watch that was unaffected by strong impacts or shaking. Its practicality was immediately recognized, and its unique look, which embodied its functionality, became wildly popular, resulting in explosive sales in the early 1990s. The G-Shock soon adopted various new sensors, solar-powered radio-controlled technology (described below), and new materials for even better durability. By always employing the latest technology, and continuing to transcend conventional thinking about the watch, the G-Shock brand has become Casio’s flagship timepiece product.

Today, Casio is focusing its efforts on solar-powered radio-controlled watches: the built-in solar battery eliminates the nuisance of replacing batteries, and the radio-controlled function means users never have to reset the time. In particular, the radio-controlled function represents a revolution in time-keeping technology similar to the impact created when mechanical watches gave way to quartz technology. Through the further development of high radio-wave sensitivity, miniaturization, and improved energy efficiency, Casio continues to produce a whole range of radio-controlled models.

Customer Reviews

A couple months of wear
I choose this watch for its multiple alarms and good looks. It is a little bulky for women - but the white color tones it down a bit. It's dial area is 1.5 inches. It was easy enough to set but I need to refer to the manual to make changes because it is not intuitive. The light works well at night in bed or other dark locations. My 40 something eyes don't have a problem seeing anything on the display, although the date is marginal. If I press the light, I can more easily see the date. Overall I'm happy with this watch. I notice a little discoloration on the band - which is a worry if it is not replaceable.

The perfect watch for me
I am very active in watersports, and have typically needed the men's version of this watch to get durability and excellent water resistance. My other problem is that I am small with very small wrists. This watch is just perfect. The face is just the right size. The watchband looks to be durable and fits my wrist without looking like it's almost too big. The displays are easy to read, and setting it was not too hard. I'm keeping the instructions, though. The backlight is one of the best I've seen; the information shows very clearly. I bought an inexpensive Timex and had the face badly scratched in a few weeks. This watch still looks pristine after a month. Thank you, Casio for a great sports watch for women at a reasonable price.

Cute watch
I really like this watch. It has multiple functions such as an alarm a stop watch and even world time. The colors are nice and the screen ligtens by the touch of a button.
