Here is a Video follow up on the 25th. Anniversary G-Shock Event held in NYC. This was a stellar who's who gathering of music, fashion, entertainment and art industries. They all came together to celebrate 25 years of the G-shock watch. Kanye a big g-shock fan performed a 10 song mini concert for event goers to remember. This is a video of Kanye performing "can't tell me nothing" Live.

G-Shock was born from a developer’s dream of creating a watch that never breaks. At a time when it was commonly believed that watches were breakable items, G-Shock’s development represented a challenge to common sense. The launch of the first G-Shock, DW5000C happened in 1983 and was followed by DW9300, which was the first time tough solar technology was incorporated into the line. Since its launch, G-Shock has continued to evolve for 25 long years, carrying on the toughness of spirit and uncompromising passion.
