G-Shock to go solar powered, might make me want to start wearing one again.

The Casio G-Shock, heralded as one of the most durable wristwatches for its price, has decided to get itself a little green creds.

Celebrating the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, the company is releasing three new sun-powered g-shock wristwatches. The watches will feature a solar panel in the front, presumably hidden under the display. To top off the 'green' move, the packaging for these new G-shocks will be made out of 100% recycled paper. The watches will be available in three colour and will be available soon.
