Set A Gshock Glide Watch

G-Shock watches are ideal for people with active lifestyles.


Developed by Japanese watch giant Casio, the chunky, colorful and durable G-Shock watches are aimed at fashion-conscious children, young people and adults with active lifestyles. Launched in 1983, the brand has featured many different styles and versions over the years, including the G-Lide model. While the casings and colors may be different, G-Shock watches are set in the same way, except the versions fitted with advanced atomic timekeeping technology. Users must select which function they wish to set and adjust each feature manually by pressing one of five buttons. Does this Spark an idea?
