A Blog To Watch visits Hamura R&D and Yamagata Casio

A Blog To Watch is the biggest watch blog out there and its owner and editor-in-chief Ariel Adams is a noted Casio fan. Though it covers many luxury brands, the blog is surprisingly accessible to the layperson and focuses on all types of watches in all price ranges. G-Shock and Pro Trek often get love on the blog and Adams, who is often the one writing about them, is obviously a longtime fan. A Blog To Watch visited Casio’s Hamura R&D Center and the Yamagata Casio factory in Japan and provides a rare glimpse into these facilities on Instagram.

The latest G-Shock Gulfmaster GWN-Q1000 on the streets of Tokyo…

Good night Tokyo. This is the latest top shelf Gulfmaster with quad sensors that includes a depth meter in addition to the ABC mix. Also tide graph which is cool. It's certainly a function-packed mega G-Shock that also has a sapphire crystal. GWN-Q1000 @gshock_us @casio.watches @casio_us #gshock #casio #tokyo #ginza #watches #ablogtowatch

A testing machine at the Casio Hamura facility that tests button operation while the watch is underwater. The latest G-Shock Frogman GWF-D1000 is being tested…

One last cool video of the Casio G-Shock testing facility at the Casio Hamura facility. This is cool because it tests the operation of pushers under water. Many diving watches do not allow you to operate them under water. Today in Yamagata prefecture where among other products high-end Casio watches are assembled. @gshock_us @casio.watches @casio_us #casio #watches #gshock #ablogtowatch

The clean room and assembly room of the Premium Production Line…

Incredible. The clean room and production lines where only Casio's most skilled technicians (certified medalists) are assembling the most advanced movements they make for G-Shock, Oceanus, and Edifice watches. @gshock_us @casio.watches @casio_us #casio #japan #gshock #watches #factory #ablogtowatch

G-Shock strap and bezel molds…

Using electric spark cutting for very high precision molds like this are used to make cases and straps for G-Shock watches. @casio.watches @gshock_us @casio_us #casio #watches #gshock #ablogtowatch

Mold makes G-Shock in a single process. An incredible facility here where my favorite Casio watches come from. @casio.watches @gshock_us @casio_us #casio #gshock #watches #ablogtowatch
