Latest G-SHOCK and Baby-G a Statement in Caring Dolphin and Whale Motifs Underscore Environmental Message

May 25, 2005, Tokyo, Japan -- Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced the release of the newest additions to the G-SHOCK and Baby-G lines with the environmentally themed Dolphin and Whale models. These represent the latest in Casio’s eleven-year contribution to the support of the natural environment, with a portion of the sales being donated to the International Cetacean Education & Research Center (I.C.E.R.C.). The I.C.E.R.C. promotes awareness of the interrelationship between Nature, the Earth, and humans. Since 1991, the I.C.E.R.C. has conducted research and disseminated information around the world on dolphins, whales, and the marine environment. Since 1994 Casio has supported the I.C.E.R.C. and hopes these new additions to the popular G-SHOCK and Baby-G lines will not only promote awareness of I.C.E.R.C. activities, but also foster concern for the marine environment. The new G-SHOCK and Baby-G are the latest in making a fashion statement about caring for the earth. The G-SHOCK features a sperm-whale design printed on a light gray band as well as in the EL backlight. The Baby-G features a bottle-nosed dolphin design printed on a white band as well as in the EL backlight. The asymmetrical design is Casio’s FROGMAN, a diving watch that has attracted a strong global following among divers and features ISO standard 200-meter water resistance. Both watches have engravings on the back cover depicting humans, dolphins, and whales swimming together representing the concept that all living things on the planet are part of the same global family—expressed both on the cover and the band as “All as One.” The Dolphin & Whale G-SHOCK and Baby-G watches are the prefect blend of functionality, fashion, and environmental awareness that tell more than time—they remind us that we share responsibility and respect for our Mother Earth.
