Development of the Timepiece Business
With the launch of its first watch in November 1974, Casio entered the wristwatch market at a time when the watch industry had just discovered digital technology. As a company with cutting-edge electronic technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered this field confident that it could develop timepieces that would lead the market.

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

Excellent item, prompt delivery.
My fiancee recently had her watched damaged after falling from the refrigerator into the kitchen floor. Although the watch still worked, the numbers fell off and she was sad since it had tremendous sentimental value. With her birthday looming, I shopped for something that would make the event special. What I found was the Casio Women's Babyy G Shock, Sweet Poison. It's a beautiful, sporty analog watch that is durable at the same time! She loved it! And I received it within two weeks. Very satisfied with the purchase! The only issue I have is that it's difficult to change the time...requires reading of their instruction manaual. Otherwise, a great purchase!

Baby-G Sweet Poison Shock Resistant Watch
Arrived earlier than expected in perfect condition. Easy to program and set time, date and day. Very happy with this purchase.

uncomfortable sweet poison
I'm a fan of Casio watches especially the G-shocks and purchased this Baby-G for the GF as a gift. Like the rest of our G-shocks, (me 4, her 2) this is a well built nice looking time piece with decent features. This is the first Baby-G we've bought and unlike our full sized watches, the backplate phillips head screws are not recessed. With only one day of wear she had sores on her wrist where the screws had rubbed and poked all day. Too bad because it's a great sporty watch for a girl with the toughness of a G in a smaller package. She wants to wear it again when her wrist is healed and try a looser fit, but looking at the screws I expect it will be the last time. Bummed.
