Analog-digital timekeeping comes packed into a no- nonsense simple design without sacrificing G-SHOCK level toughness.
Basically, this is a thin layer of strong and light carbon fiber that reinforces the traditional resin case. The result is that G-Shock can build a case with a thinner layer of plastic material g shock protection while still offering the same protection G-Shock is known for.

Digital screen is hard to read in direct light but on-your-wrist legibility is fine. Lume the hour markers as well as the hands or make the LED cast better light across the hands too. In daylight the dial reflects light from different facets of the multilayer structure, while at night things get a little harder to read.
The full watch and strap is matt black or dark grey depending on the light hitting it. The only parts in contrast are the hardware buttons, strap screws and buckle. This sounds good but I’d actually far prefer they were all PVD or DLC black too similar to what I have on my RedOut edition from last year. The first thing you notice about the watch is that its dark – real dark!
(The GA A and GA A also have Neo-Brite luminous hands.) The dimensions are 48.5 x 45.4 x 11.8 millimeters and the weight is 51 grams. I’ve not seen any additional straps to buy yet but hey, new stuff! The strap itself feels a little thinner and more rigid than my other resin G-SHOCK and other Casios in general but this may be because it’s new and I’ve not broken it in yet. Adding a bit of panache to the successful X-Large GA120 series, the new GA201 employs a black IP aluminum bezel and additional metal accents on the dial for added depth and an upscale look.
