G-Shock India unveils 'Rise Above the Shocks' campaign with Shubman Gill

G-Shock has unveiled a new chapter through the premiere of a new campaign ‘Rise Above the Shocks’ with its newly appointed brand ambassador, Shubman Gill.

The brand unveiled a series of new films, bringing together G-Shock's dedication of crafting tough and trend-setting timepieces and Gill's inspiring persona, encompassing both physical resilience and mental fortitude.

The campaign unveiling was spearheaded by Hideki Imai, Managing Director of Casio India, along with Eklavya Neogi, Head of Sales and Marketing Division at Casio India, and G-Shock’s Brand Ambassador, Gill.

GA-2100-1A1, the watch worn by Gill in the campaign is the all-black embodiment of the 2100 series and is extremely popular among both new buyers and G-Shock aficionados alike.

The idea of "Rise Above the Shocks" revolves around celebrating the indomitable spirit of individuals who overcome challenges and adversities with determination, much like the iconic G-Shock watches that withstand shocks and extreme conditions.

The creative idea blends the spirit of cricket, stories of resilience, and digital engagement with Gill at the forefront to connect with every watch and streetwear enthusiast and establish G-Shock as an emblem of tenacity, style, and triumph.

Imai said, "We mark a pivotal moment in the journey of G-Shock in India, inspired by the core values of Absolute Toughness and the spirit of ‘never giving up’. Our 'Rise Above the Shocks' campaign with Shubman Gill taps into the Indian ethos of perseverance and resilience, aligning seamlessly with G-Shock's reputation for toughness and durability. As we celebrate our 40th anniversary globally, this strong synergy also commemorates the brand’s unwavering pursuit of precision, imaginative design, and stylish aesthetics in the watchmaking realm. We couldn't be happier to spearhead this campaign with the reigning Youth Icon from the cricketing world, Shubman Gill, who embodies the same unyielding character emblematic of our timepieces. Collectively, our mission is to galvanise the next wave of resilience and grit amongst the GenZ and millennial audiences in India by being a talisman for their ability to persist through life’s trials and emerge stronger and brighter, just like the G-Shock brand.”

Gill said, "I am excited to be a part of the G-Shock family. They have made a mark among the Gen Z and Millennials for their trendy yet durable designs. As a cricketer, I acknowledge the value of a good partnership. A durable partnership can change the course of the game. I believe G-Shock watches prove to be reliable in the 'partnership' of timekeeping, along with their innovative designs. It is this shared belief that makes me happy about this collaboration."

Kapil Batra, National Creative Director, Wieden + Kennedy India, said, "Shubman is called ‘The Prince of Indian Cricket’, for a reason. He has overcome challenges, won battles, and shattered perceptions to earn this title. In a similar vein, the G Shock watch has gained its reputation as one of the toughest watches for good reason. Its toughness is a result of rigorous testing and an exceptional ability to endure any shock. We thoroughly enjoyed working on this campaign. It's a celebration of Shubman's and G Shock's shared ability to rise above any shock, presented in a visually captivating way."
