The Casio brand was founded in 1946 in Tokyo, Japan. The company, famous for electronic calculator production, in the 1970s they decided to enter the so far unexplored area of electronics - watch production. It didn't take long for Casio to become a leading producer of watches famous for their design and reliability. They were one of the first to use quartz crystal in the construction of analogue and digital watches. The growing popularity of technically based consumers was the result of functional innovations in which Casio is a pioneer today. A combination of a wristwatch and a calculator, a temperature sensor, an altimeter, a barometer, a radio control watch, a Tough Solar power supply and even a built-in GPS chip. Casio didn't hesitate to pioneerly integrate all of these and the myriad other conveniences of technology and achieve success with them around the world. Other Casio watch specialities include increased durability, a feature typical of the G-Shock and Baby-G series. Shock, overload and magnetic field resistance, the Casio G-Shock, premiered in 1983, makes it ideal for extreme conditions, and the presence of a compass and thermometer makes the Pro Trek outdoor models an invaluable aid to any tourist. The uncompromising combination of features with an elegant look is the prerogative of the Edifice watch.
