<p>Born from the visionary mind of young engineer Kikuo Ibe, G-SHOCK emerged at a time when traditional watches were perceived as delicate instruments. Ibe's audacious dream of crafting a timepiece that could withstand any challenge laid the foundation for Project Team Tough in 1981. After two years of relentless dedication and more than 200 prototypes, the shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch was born, redefining the very essence of durability.</p>
<p>Chapters include a history of the technological innovation, behind-the-scenes imagery from the brand’s R&D facilities in Japan, and advertisements and collaborations with sports figures, fashion designers, musicians, and artists including pro-surfer Kanoa Igarashi, musician Kid Cudi, designers Takashi Murakami and Nigo, as well as fashion brands like BAPE, Kith, Stüssy, Maison Margiela, and Supreme.</p>
<p><br>Embodying the spirit of “Absolute Toughness,” G-SHOCK’s visceral connection to its collaborators and collectors make this book a must-have for watch enthusiast and design aficionados. With a commitment to adaptability, G-SHOCK embraces evolving technologies further solidifying its position as a trailblazer in the watch industry.</p>
<p><br>“This book serves as a time capsule for G-SHOCK,” says Tadashi Shibuya, Vice President of the Timepiece division at Casio America Inc. “It commemorates and<br>protects the last 40 years within its pages, and we are thankful to Ariel for collecting these special moments for us.”</p>
