Casio G-shock

i am also using two g-shocks.

the first is an old model. got it 10 years ago. after one change of battery, it is still up and working.

 

the second is a brand new model. a digital/analog combination. got it six months ago.

 

you are right in saying that g-shocks are one of the durable watches ever made. i've known someone who got his g-shock 12 years ago, and it is still working fine.

i had a classmate back in highschool who kinda lended his g-shock to me due he said he finds it bulky and big for him. he did a lot of nasty stuff with it like burn the sides and smash it on the walls, i think he was fond of the commercial kaya ginagaya nya! any ways i went to park square makati to have the plastic walls of the face change for i think around 500php? and it was back in it's glory looking form. after some time the watch went dead, i was calculating the life span of the battery and aprrox it was 5 years of length. so i had it replace to the same shop in park square. before i garduated in college my old classmate just decided to give me a ring and take it back?! anyways it was one cool watch! i'm collecting a diff brand of watch now.

My favorite watch....G-Shock Atomic Solar....no need to replace the battery (solar powered) and no need to set the time. It automatically does it for you by receiving time calibration radio signal 4x a day. And it's cheap ($70) so if I ever lose it, I'll just get another one.

most durable? that i cannot answer.. but definitely durable..

 

 

i think g shocks deserve the title "most durable watches"... unless of course you can find me proof of other watches undergoing and surviving torture tests like these:
