I've got a Casio G-shock that I've had for 30 years. The cleverly recessed bezel has not a scratch on it, and it keeps perfect time. I'm on the seventh band, the batteries last 10 years. It's indestructible.

History[edit]
The first G-Shock, the Casio DW-5000C, was designed in 1983 by an engineer working for Casio named Kikuo Ibe. It was designed to have a 10 year battery life, be water resistant to 10 bar, and survive a 10m fall onto a hard surface.
