– EL: blue-green - 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. The watches in the G-Shock line are designed primarily for sports, military and outdoors-oriented activities; nearly all G-Shocks are chronographs, with either a digital display or a combination of analogue and digital. Other features such as countdown timer, world clock, alarms, electroluminescent backlight and water resistance are included in most models. Newer high-end models in the line also feature GPS, compass or radio-controlled adjustment known as Multi-Band
The Multi-Band 6 is a radio control technology first introduced on the GW9200 Riseman in 2008[19] and is a successor to the Multi-Band 5 (which supported synchronisation with 5 atomic time transmitters around the world) and Wave Ceptor (which supported synchronisation with atomic time transmitters present in the United States and Japan only) technologies. G-Shock watches with Multi-Band 6 technology can synchronise with one of the six atomic time transmitters in the world in order to keep accurate time. The following is a list of the six atomic time transmitters:Japan
Watches can tune in to two locations:
The 40 kHz signal from JJY at Mount Otakadoya, near Fukushima (Ohtakadoyayama).
The 60 kHz signal from the Haganeyama Transmitter at Mount Hagane (Haganeyama).China
Watches tune to the 68.5 kHz signal from BPC at Shangqiu. This is the newest additional signal; older multi-band 5 watches will not be able to connect to this signal, and must be upgraded to a newer multi-band 6 watch in order to synchronise from there.United States
Watches tune to the 60 kHz signal from WWVB at Fort Collins.United Kingdom
Watches tune to the 60 kHz MSF at Anthorn.Germany
Watches tune to the 77.5 kHz low frequency time signal radio station DCF77 at Mainflingen.
