What is the Highest Selling G-Shock in the World?

Welcome back to Jimmy B’s Guide to Casio Watches! Today we’re going to focus on a really interesting question - which G-Shocks have sold the most? This is great to read if you’re struggling for ideas on what to get your partner/yourself. Ready? Here We Go!

Now, before we start I’ll let you know, I’ll be listing not just the top seller, but the top 3, otherwise this’d be a REALLY short post! So we’ll start from 3rd place.

3) DW-6900 Series! Now... I admit that actually took me by surprise but they do have a unique advantage. You see, the DW-6900 is actually one of the first models to ever be released for Casio G-Shock, all the way in 1995. This makes it perfect for collectors, plus it’s easy on the eyes. Just this year we started selling the DW-6900BB series which was released for the 35th anniversary of Casio G-Shock, click here to see it.

2) GA-100 Series! I have to say, this is quite impressive because unlike the DW-6900, the Casio GA-100 series was only released 9 years ago, but it has been blowing up! One of the biggest reasons for its success is the extra-large display. Up until the GA-100 came along, you’d either have to get a digital watch, or the analogue/digital combos with a tiny digital display.

Apart from the large screen, Casio also introduced Magnetic Resistance. When you’re out and about near electronics, this feature prevents the electromagnetic waves from interfering with the mechanism keeping your watch running.

Nowadays you can get the Original GA-100 series here, as well as a camouflaged version here, giving you lots of choice.

1) GA-110 Series! If at first you DO succeed, you can always do better! That seems to be Casio’s motto, because after their successful launch of the GA-100s, they followed it up, later that same year, by introducing the GA-110s. While the GA-100 had the digital time and date in 2 squares to either side of the analogue display, the GA-110 has them on the top and bottom, and more curved, which actually made it easier to read.

One other feature that they added was the 1/1000-sec stopwatch. Now, to some of you that might not mean a lot, but to the athletes here, you’ll know it’s one of the most accurate stopwatches in the world. It’s even used when judging events such as the Olympics and the Tour De France! That’s a massive seal of approval right there.

The GA-110 has many models, some camouflaged, some in unusual colours, and they can all be found in the GA-110 section of our store. And their influence has actually spread to the Baby-G series, with a BA-110, smaller version of the GA110 Series. Outselling its predecessor, the GA100, the GA110 takes top spot for the highest selling Casio G-Shock of all time!
