Casio to Release Full-Metal G-SHOCK Watches with Octagonal Bezel
Adding to the popular 2100 line featuring a streamlined,minimalist design
TOKYO,July 28,2022 --Casio Computer Co.,Ltd. announced today the latest additions to its G-SHOCK shock-resistant watches. These three new GM-B2100 watches,with a full-metal design now adopted for iconic octagonal bezel of the 2100 line.
GM-B2100
This new shock-resistant GM-B2100 watches employ stainless steel as the exterior material for the case,band,and bezel,pushing the 2100 line forward in both full-metal construction and sharp design. In order to ensure shock resistance in these metal-clad timepieces,the shock-resistant structure created for the iconic shape of the full-metal GMW-B5000 was adopted for the screw-back case,and bezel joints of these watches as well,with buffering components made of fine resin installed between the bezel and case.
The bezel,put through meticulous processes — first forging,then cutting and polishing — are precisely crafted for an intricately shaped face that is eye-catchingly solid and stylish. To accentuate the beauty of the metal,the components are treated with different finishes —the bezel with a circular hairline finish on its top surface,the band with a vertical hairline finish,and the bezel bevel,buttons and case back with a mirror finish. The dial is composed of multiple parts to create depth and dimension,while the inset dial ring at the 9 o'clock position and the index marks are treated with a vapor deposition finish for a watch face with a truly quality look.
The new watches also deliver practical utility with a Tough Solar charging system that eliminates the need to regularly replace the battery. They are also equipped with Smartphone Link* connectivity via Bluetooth® for accurate timekeeping and easy setting of alarms,countdown timer,world time and other functions from a smartphone app.
* Requires downloading the dedicated CASIO WATCHES app.
