Whether you're into sleek dress watches or big and bright dive watches, Amazon probably has one on sale right now. Great deals on timepieces from Citizen, Seiko, Bulova, and so many other brands are all over the site with massive savings attached to them. If you need something more rugged, G-Shock is the way to go, and there's no discount better than the one on this classic digital watch that's now under $55.
Casio G-Shock's DW9052-1BCG Digital Watch is now on sale for just $52, making this tough-wearing watch an excellent 30% off its usual $75 price tag. This sporty watch has earned over 5,100 five-star ratings from shoppers who say it's "reasonably priced" and "can take a serious beating." Over 900 of these watches have been purchased in the last month, and it currently sits as one of Amazon's top 50 bestselling watches on the whole site.
Living up to the G-Shock brand's life-proof moniker, this model is shock-resistant and water-resistant up to 200 meters. With its patented chunky aesthetics, this version is decked out with an electro-luminescent backlight with afterglow, which ensures easy reading during the day or night, especially if you want to pretend you’re carrying out Navy SEAL missions. The 1/100-second stopwatch ensures hyper-accuracy while the auto-calendar is pre-programmed out until 2099, meaning the watch does not have to be adjusted for the number of days in a month—even leap years—until way into the future.
Shoppers have been raving about its toughness. “I tend to be hard on watches, so this watch is the perfect daily wear watch for my needs,” a shopper said. “Just what I needed. Will probably buy a second one to have as a backup."
Another shopper highlighted its life-proof capabilities: “I have had this one in the pool several times, and it runs like a champ…It’s my second G-shock—rugged and stylish.”
$52 for a classic G-Shock watch is a fantastic price, but it's not clear how long the discount will last. Make sure to grab one for yourself soon because the price could skyrocket tomorrow.
