What is atomic timekeeping G-Shock?
What is atomic timekeeping G-Shock?
Receives time calibration signals and corrects the time automatically. Casio watches with G-Shock technology receive radio waves carrying American Standard Time data transmitted from Fort Collins, Colorado.
What is special about G-Shock?
The newest collection of the ‘G’ comes with exciting features like a built-in altimeter, navigating compass, bluetooth connectivity and a world timer accurate to 1-2 seconds a month. And such is their durability (mentioning it for the third time now) that G-Shocks last for generations rather than years.
How do I set the timekeeping mode on my G-Shock?
Setting Your G-Shock Manually Begin in standard or “timekeeping” mode. To enter time-setting mode, find the A button at the top left of the dial and hold it down for a few seconds. On many models, the message ADJ appears and then changes to SET when you let go of the button.
Are G Shocks good?
G-Shock is one of the toughest watches ever made. Because of its shockproof construction, your G-Shock will work no matter what, even the cheapest models. It’s rugged, reliable watch that performs well consistently and has a stellar reputation for quality.
What is atomic timekeeping technology?
HOW IT WORKS. A signal containing the precise time, day and date, measured by an atomic clock accurate to one second every 100,000 years, is sent directly to the watch using standard radio waves. This signal is picked up overnight by the timepiece which automatically adjust the date and time.
How accurate is G-Shock time?
Accuracy of G-Shocks will probably be all over the place. Fresh out of the box, they’re supposed to be within +/- 15 seconds/month. I’ve heard this was changed for some CASIO watches to +/- 30 seconds/month, but that might not be G-Shocks. The 30s +/- specification is correlated with low end models.
Why is it called G-Shock?
The G-Shock is a line of watches manufactured by the Japanese electronics company Casio, designed to resist mechanical stress, shock and vibration. G-Shock is an abbreviation for Gravitational Shock.
What is timekeeping mode?
Timekeeping mode is when the watch isn’t in any other mode (stopwatch, alarm, countdown, etc.) Normally in timekeeping mode the watch is displaying the day of the week and the date. To change the language, go into settings mode by holding down the upper right button for 3 seconds.

How are G-Shock Aviation watches tested?
Each G-Shock Aviation watch undergoes the most strenous test that you can imagine. Each watch is tested using special equipment that puts them under pressure that is even higher than human endurance limit. Most aviator watches will be labeled as Triple-G Resist.
Why do G-Shocks tell time so well?
But a G-Shock is a watch above all else. And a watch needs to be able to tell perfect time. The reason why so many G-Shocks tell such good time is because they feature Multi Band 6 technology. And every G-Shock that includes Multi Band 6 technology can be described as being atomic.
What is the G-Shock Aviation family?
The G-Shock Aviation family is designed with accomplished and bold personalities like you in mind. The hand movement of a watch belonging to the aviation family has been specifically designed to permit high speed movement even under powerful gravitational forces, making it among the just few watches that can be worn in the hands of an aviator.
