A tiny finger-mounted timepiece is inherently somewhat of a novelty, and rather than being conceived as functional items, ring watches are primarily intended to appeal to humanity’s inexplicable fascination with miniaturization. However, Casio is the brand responsible for creating the G-Shock (arguably the most practical watch in existence), and it first and foremost makes functional…
