Released in 1983 by Casio, one of the famous Japanese companies, the G-Shock wristwatch (in full - Gravity Shock) is a thoughtful waterproof and shock-resistant product, intended primarily for people leading an active or extreme lifestyle. They are reliable, lightweight, compact in size, and designed for use in the most adverse conditions.
G-Shock watches have many benefits. They have a special body design that has a special mechanism placed in the air cushion. Its base is made of polymer - a super-strong material that absorbs shock. The product has dense mineral glass that prevents scratches.
Those who know how to set up a G-Shock watch are aware that it is suitable even for scuba divers, since it operates at a depth of more than 200 m. Sometimes it has a function for determining the periods of low tide in the ocean and the phase of the moon. The watch copes well with vibration, as it is equipped with shock-absorbing limiters inside and outside the case. Those parts that protrude from the outside will protect the display from damage when it comes into contact with unwanted surfaces, regardless of the angle of impact.
In order not to spoil the complex mechanism, it is worth studying its characteristics and figuring out how to set up your G-Shock watch correctly. Some models are equipped with a barometer and altimeter, which will be useful for mountaineers and rock climbers. The watch will also withstand significant drops in temperature. In addition, they provide the ability to synchronize time and low-frequency radio signals that set the exact time.
The batteries are designed to last ten years, but usually last a year or two, except for watches with a battery that can replenish its charge using solar energy. More modern models of these watches began to be produced in accordance with fashion trends, so today they have acquired the status of a stylish accessory.
Although they are accompanied by manufacturer’s instructions (usually not in Russian), many have difficulties at this stage. The display displays the time, day and month, day of the week, formatted according to accepted abbreviations. There is an option - having an indication of the day of the week of the year. The initial time setting is manual, by holding the top left side button, followed by automatic display. Each pressing step is accompanied by a characteristic sound.
Before you change the time, you need to familiarize yourself with all the available buttons and check their functions. The basic setting is the ADJUST button. Replace the menu and arrow direction - REVERSE. Modes - MODE. Settings (including arrow movement) - FORVARD. The “modes” button scrolls through the timer, alarm clock and stopwatch, date, clock (time) and their settings.
When setting, for example, the time in a clock with hands, H-SET appears - an indicator for setting the hands by an electric drive. Next, click “settings”. Automatically set to 12 hours. This button must be held down until the desired real time digit. It is possible to set a specific time zone. It is possible to start and disable the hand that counts the seconds; its movement can be made smooth (first - RESET, and then the upper right and lower buttons). There is a button that changes fonts to increase or decrease the size of letters and numbers.
Their internal mechanism is similar to all other models, so solving this problem will not be difficult. Features of this particular watch: it is equipped with five signals for each day, for one hour, the expiration of which is accompanied by a sound. The Snooze function allows you to resume the alarm after the previous signal ends. They also have an automatic calendar with different month lengths (from 28 to 31 days). The stopwatch measures a period of time (accurate to 1/1000 of a second), while emitting a characteristic sound.
