Interesting 44-second video here showing a G-Shock square tested to 200m depth. It's interesting how a plastic watch with four non-screwdown pushers and a 4-screw caseback can go twice as deep as the depth rating for a Rolex Oyster.

That's amazing and indeed fascinating how Casio is able to achieve this given the design traits. Seeing this video makes me appreciate G-Shock's even more, despite always being aware of the depth rating.

I wonder how much further it potentially could've gone without an issue.
