"Casio continues its series of functional watch rings with the release of the downsized G-SHOCK Nano made of bio-based resin. A miniature model of the DW-5600 digital watch, it reproduces the shape and functions of the full-size G-SHOCK at about one-tenth of its scale. It is designed to fit on a finger like a ring, just like the first functional watch ring of Casio following its toy version."
"The inner structure of the Casio G-SHOCK Nano watch ring follows the same construction principles that define the series' identity. A miniature case made of glass fiber-reinforced resin provides the core strength, and around this, a urethane bezel completely covers the case to absorb shocks from external impacts. Tight sealing is achieved with internal gaskets and a reinforced backplate, allowing the Nano to achieve 20 bar water resistance."
Casio's G-SHOCK Nano is a one-tenth-scale, wearable ring modeled on the DW-5600 digital watch and constructed from bio-based resin and stainless steel components. Every functional element is replicated, including the LCD display, buttons, buckle, and adjustable strap that fits finger circumferences from about 48 to 82 millimeters. An inner glass fiber-reinforced resin case provides core strength while a urethane bezel absorbs shocks, with internal gaskets and a reinforced backplate delivering 20 bar water resistance. The miniaturized LCD shows hours, minutes, seconds, calendar, dual time, and stopwatch using a six-digit format with adjusted segment layout and reflective layer for clarity.
