Casio G-Shock DW-9052GBX watch

The image shows the stainless steel back of a Casio G-Shock watch, specifically a model from the DW-9052 series. G-Shock is a line of watches manufactured by the Japanese electronics company Casio, designed to resist mechanical stress, shock, and vibration. The 'G' stands for Gravitational Shock.

Originally launched in 1983, the G-Shock brand was developed by Kikuo Ibe, a Casio engineer who sought to create a 'triple 10' watch: one with a 10-year battery life, 10-bar water resistance, and endurance for a 10-meter fall. While the brand is Japanese in origin and Casio remains a Japanese multinational, they have established high-scale manufacturing facilities across Asia. This specific unit indicates it was 'MADE IN THAILAND', which is a primary production hub for Casio's shock-resistant line, alongside plants in Japan and China. The brand remains under the ultimate ownership of Casio Computer Co., Ltd., headquartered in Tokyo, Japan.
