Dirt- and mud-resistant construction keeps mud and dirt from getting into the watch.
EL BacklightAn electro-luminescent panel causes the entire face to glow for easy read in g. Includes an After-Glow feature that keeps the EL backlight turned on for a few seconds after the light button is released.
World Time 48Displays the current time in major cities and specific areas around the world. R : Current time in major cities around the world. 48 : Values indicate number of cities/areas.
Timer – 24 hourCounts down from a start time specified by you. The value indicates the number of timers available. 24 H : The time figure indicates the maximum start in g time.
Multi-function Alarm Hourly Time Signal 5Multi-function Alarms can be configured to sound on a particular date a particular day of the week or at the same time each day. The number 5 indicates the number of Alarms. The hourly time signal causes the watch to beep every hour on the hour.
Auto CalendarAllowances are made automatically for months of different lengths but not leap year.
12/24-hour TimekeepingTimes can be displayed in either 12-hour or 24-hour format.
Operation Tone On / OffThe tone that sounds to signal a mode change or other operation can be turned on and off.
Water Resistant : 200 mThe 'BAR' value indicates the number of atmospheres to which water resistance is ensured. 20 BAR means water resistance to 20 atmospheres. Wearable around sinks during swimming poolside diving and scuba diving at depths not requiring helium gas.
Water Resistant TestedThe unique G-SHOCK design also provides it with the ability to withstand the rigors of water resistance testing up to 20 atmospheres which is equivalent to 200 meters. This means unequalled toughness even under water.
Drop TestedThe drop test is performed manually by actually dropping watches. A test machine cannot be used for such a test because there is no way to control or reproduce all of the countless variables involved when an object falls.
Vibration TestedThe cushioning system of the watch also provide outstanding resistance to vibration. In the past vibration resistance was tested by fixing the watch to the axle of a motorcycle. Today a special test machine is used to subject the watch to vibration for 24 hours to check its ability to withstand such treatment.
