Almost all G-Shocks will have a stopwatch, a countdown timer, a backlight, and 200m of water resistance. Beyond that, Casio riffs endlessly with style and functionality, from resin-cased altimeter- and barometer-loaded models to precious-metal atomic-clock referencing dual-time world travelers. In reality, it’s tough to wrangle all of G-Shock constantly evolving offerings into a coherent picture, but this guide should help you navigate your way to one that suits you.
GWFA1000XC1A The composite band GWFA1000XC-1A is the latest addition to the GWFA1000 Series, the first analog models for the FROGMAN Series of G-SHOCK MASTER OF G ISO 200m diver-level water-resistant watches. GA100C-8A G-Shock’s most baby g shock popular large case analog/digital series introduces a new color collection, the GA100C’s. GA900-4A G-SHOCK announces a new lineup of heavy-duty models that are great for wear in tough environments and as street fashion items as well.
MTGB1000XBD1 Introducing an elegantly beautiful new titanium model for the mid-size series of the G-SHOCK MR-G flagship lineup. GA140GM-1A1 This new model is the latest additions to the G-SHOCK GA-140 Series of digital-analog combination timepieces. GA400SK-1A9 G-SHOCK is the watch brand that is always finding ways to incorporate world culture icons into exciting new designs. GM6900-1KR After nearly a decade, G-SHOCK is proud to team up with Krink once again to bring you the limited edition GM6900-1KR. GM110NE-1A G-SHOCK teams up with New Era to develop the limited edition GM110NE-1A, in celebration of the iconic headwear brand’s 100th anniversary.
Starting at $669 USD for the gold variant, the price is somewhat reasonable given its product line and the historical value of its design. Another part of the Master of G collection is the Casio G-Shock Frogman series. Unlike both Rangeman and Mudmaster whose underwater capabilities are limited to an extent, the Frogman doubles down on its underwater prowess.
It also includes sensors and a unique feature that allows you to move the watch hands out of the way of other information temporarily. Analog/digital G-Shocks all have traditional watch hands, giving them at-a-glance legibility and a sense of time itself that’s lacking on a fully digital display. There’s something about looking at a whole watch dial that offers a broader perspective on time, and this is certainly part of the allure here. These relatively premium G-Shocks are popular because they’re so damn great, but they remain pretty readily available. Styled just like the originals, but now with fully metal construction, including bracelets on some models.
DW5600MS-1BTS $ 99.00 G-SHOCK classic digital watch design is paired with a Bluetooth-enabled set of headphones which can play tunes and make or receive phone calls. GD100-1BBTS $ 99.00 One of G-SHOCK’s most dinamic digital watch is paired with bluetooth headphones set. GA100C-8A $ 99.00 G-Shock’s most popular large case analog/digital series introduces a new color collection, the GA100C’s. What I understood from reading the whole paragraph(“Impact”) in the manual is that the manual is a general guide of how to operating watches with this movement, instead of exclusively for this G-shock model(GA-2100). So, there is an additional sentence to state that the shock-resistant watch models(G-SHOCK, BABY-G, G-MS) with this movement do have the ability to survive from much stronger impacts. Despite global troubles, the last 12 months was a good one for the watch community as there were plenty of new models to look at even if launches were online affairs rather than mass gatherings.
A few years ago, to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the G-Shock, Casio made one in solid gold. It was limited to 35 pieces, available only in Japan, and cost $70,000. Snatch up a G-Shock 2100, aka the CasiOak, which has an octagonal bezel just like the much-flexed Royal Oak, and several fewer zeroes on its price.
