Fast forward to today, and the GA2100 line hits the scene — the timeless spirit of toughness those two epoch-making models, fused with cutting-edge technologies to create timepieces like nothing you’ve ever seen before. The developers pursued a thinner design while still satisfying the original G-SHOCK criteria for shock resistance. They strengthened the external structure and slimmed the module, achieving wafer-thin at just 11.8mm.

Last year the all black model – an unlimited, in-production piece – was trading above RRP on the grey market after shops sold out. The Casio GA-2100 series has the same 8-sided bezel design, and it is no surprise that significant parallels have been drawn between the external appearance of the two watches. But let us be clear, this is where that comparison ends. Compare the new and vintage Casio models and you can clearly see the family trait, nevertheless the moniker of “CasiOak” has stuck and the GA-2100 will forever be known as such. The hands on the GA A1 do feature lume, but it isn’t the same “Neobrite” on other GA models, and it isn’t nearly as effective. Though the LED backlight on the LCD is excellent, the second LED light on the GA A1 performs a poor job of lighting the hands and markings in the dark.
This new red and green Christmas color accented special Winter Premium model is the latest additions to the G-SHOCK lineup of watch that have been pushing the limits of timekeeping toughness since 1983. White-on-black model’s analog hands are fine, “stealth” gray-on-black, and red-over-red models not so much. Digital screen is hard to read in direct light but on-your-wrist legibility is fine.
With 200m water resistance as well, the watch is ideal for use in a wide range of locations and situations. Use of the latest toughness-driven construction with carbon fiber-reinforced resin made it possible to slim the case to the utmost limit. The side profile design pays homage to the very first model with its button layout, uneven surface form and fixed-angle band.
As a seasoned G-Shock user who has worn them in the harshest environments on the Earth, I genuinely appreciate what Casio achieved back in 1983 when the first model rolled off the production line. The creation of the G allowed me to wear a watch where other models would have curled up and surrendered. They remain a source of wonder to me, and I will always have an insatiable appetite to collect them.
