Casio has teamed up with Polygon Labs to bring its popular G-Shock watch brand to the blockchain. The Japanese electronics giant will collaborate with the layer-2 Ethereum scaling solution to build a “co-creator community” in the metaverse. 
To kick off its Web3 campaign, Casio is dropping 15,000 free-to-mint G-Shock Creator Pass NFTs, which holders will use to access the program’s newly created Discord channel. They will then enter a co-creation competition where they will be allowed to design different versions of the G-Shock <a href="https://www.nftgators.com/what-is-an-nft/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">NFTs</a>. 
According to the announcement, Casio will roll out NFTs through its <a href="https://gshock.casio.com/intl/virtual" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">website</a> to users who have a Casio ID from September 23-26, with the public rollout following thereafter from September 26-29. 
Commenting on the announcement, Takahashi Oh, senior general manager of Casio’s timepiece division said: “In recent years, with the spread of the decentralized internet known as Web3, demand for experiences in virtual spaces has increased. We have launched this initiative to further expand the G-Shock brand by establishing points of contact with previously unreachable segments of the population.” 
According to Oh, the G-Shock watch brand has shipped more than 100 million units since 1983. Casio wants to introduce the popular watch brand to <a href="https://www.nftgators.com/what-is-the-metaverse/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">the metaverse</a> and interactive online worlds to be used as a wearable timepiece. 
The company has teamed up with Polygon Labs to create a “co-creation community” that will develop the virtual wearables in collaboration with Casio. 
“The co-creation of the Virtual G-Shock Project aims to increase the presence of the G-Shock brand in the virtual and Web3 worlds,” Oh <a href="https://decrypt.co/154905/casio-dropping-free-nfts-co-create-virtual-g-shock-watches" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">told Decrypt</a>. “And to foster a culture of wearing watches in the virtual world.”&nbsp; 
Oh wants to see a metaverse where digital avatars are dressed in his company’s iconic brand of sporty watches. 
“In order to realize this world, we would like to cultivate virtual fans through the co-creation project and increase the number of friends who will work together to create the future that Virtual G-Shock is aiming for,” he added.
