G-Shock Watch Launches 30th Anniversary Awards
Wednesday - 27 June 2012
G-Shock has teamed up with Dazed & Confused magazine to launch the G-Shock 30th Anniversary Awards.
The awards will pay tribute to the best up-and-coming talent in the fields of fashion, art, music and sport, while celebrating the watch brand's 30-year milestone.
Shortlists for each category will be decided by Dazed & Confused, with four panels of industry experts judging the winners. The results will be announced at an awards ceremony in October, where each winner will be awarded £3,000 worth of funding from Casio G-Shock to help them progress in their chosen field.
Each winner will become a G-Shock ambassador, joining a group selected for their success, recognition and determination in their respective industries.
