About the original
The Casio G-Shock DW-6900 is a digital watch introduced in 1995 with a triple-display face, 200-meter water resistance, shock resistance, and an electroluminescent backlight. Casio launched the G-Shock line in 1983 around engineer Kikuo Ibe's internal target of a 10-year battery, 10-meter drop survival, and 10-bar water resistance. The DW-6900 added a stopwatch, countdown timer, multi-function alarm, and auto calendar in a 50mm resin case, and its three-circle sub-display became one of the line's most recognizable silhouettes in streetwear through the 1990s. The Supreme FW2018 collab version carries a box logo on the bezel and retailed at $150.
