G-SHOCK acquires accurate positioning and time information from GPS satellites.
Accurate world time
- Acquires information on your current position and time from GPS satellites.
- Automatically analyses the time zone based on your positioning information.
- Determines the Daylight Saving Time status of your current location and displays the accurate time automatically.

Unique GPS algorithm
Positioning data provided by GPS satellites paired with data from a grid divided high-resolution map, with units measuring roughly 500m, enables wearers to determine locations more accurately.
Allowing for greater speed and accuracy when establishing time differences, the use of a single-variable data analysis method groups areas in the same time zone that share the same Daylight Saving Time regulations.
