How far have you pushed your G-Shock?
We all know G-Shocks are meant to take a beating.
They're robust and reliable -- they'll survive whatever you throw at them. 9 times out of 10.
I'm the average citizen with a 9-to-5. So for me, it's been through sweaty morning cardio, meat-head gym stuff, tending the garden, fixing a busted fence, the occasional rock-climb & swim, and play time with my overly-energetic pitbull.
So far, its holding up pretty good! (unsurprisingly).
But I'm curious,
How about you? How far have you pushed your G-Shock?

I wear mine on Canoe trips, hiking, swimming & general chores. My G-Shocks were also Martyrs for puppy teeth last year. The rubber hides each bite quite well.
Maximum I have dived is about 15 feet with it, my ears felt like they would implode first.
The mineral crystal has held up amazingly to scratches due to the large rubber bezel. Brush on hikes, wood chips from chainsaws and general clumsiness has not phased them yet either.
Just a great watch to wear for anything active, where you don't want to worry about damaging a watch.

Love to see G-Shocks being put to work. Thanks for sharing!
Wore my dw-6900 through my 4 years in the military. It took a beating and did great 👍
I love that you climb and put your gshock through it all but really shouldn’t wear it to climb.. can get yourself hurt.

I don't — in the picture I was timing a friend of mine as he attempts a run.
