Casio is a watch brand that everyone knows, and over the past few months, Casio has been rolling new timepieces into the market to celebrate its anniversary.

Apparently, the G-shock GMC-B2100 is one of the few watches lined up for the October launch. While the upcoming product launch was supposed to happen on 18th October, it was pushed forward after cybercriminals attacked Casio Japan.

Equipped with an analog dial, this G-shock timepiece is also characterized by three chronograph counters for tracking days of the week and other important units. And thanks to the stainless steel material, the timepiece has a sturdy build that can easily withstand the harshest conditions.

Since it measures 51.3 mm by 46.3 mm by 12.3 mm, it easily fits on the human hand due to its lightweight properties.

The GMC-B2100 is also inspired by two other stainless steel G-shock models— the MRG-B2100 and GM-B2100.

Thanks to Casio’s precision cutting technology, the bezel is carefully crafted to complement the watch’s overall design. The casing features a circular hairline finish with an interesting texture and a shiny metallic lustre.

Since the watch belongs to the 2100 series, it has a rugged and retro look, similar to the one featured on old G-shock pieces from the 2100 series.

While this model should be launched into the market on October 18th, it might be rolled out in late October or early November because of organizational delays.

The watch will retail for $800. It will be available in the official Casio store and other authorized watch retail stores.

G-Shock often collaborates with creatives, artists, painters, and other professionals, offering a suitable platform for exhibiting art. And sometimes, it chooses to showcase artists who have been venerated for decades. These two new watches, the DW-5600KHK24-1 and DW-5600KHG24-1, were rolled out with stylish dials that dive deep into Japanese art culture, marrying one of the most iconic Japanese watch brands with iconic Japanese art.

It’s a collection that explores Katsushika Hokusai’s work—the Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji. As the name hints, this is a series of landscape views exhibited on Japanese woodblock prints. Katsushika Hokusai is one of the most famous artists from Japan's Edo Period.

G-shock x Charles Darwin Foundation

Charles Darwin came up with the theory that explains the evolution of the human species, and his name still lives on to this day—this latest collection from G-Shock is proof of that.

While the beloved watch line rolled out a collection that paid tribute to Charles Darwin a few years ago, this new line comes with a new design and interesting details—an upgrade. Available in two different shades, the Charles Darwin collection comprises these watches: the GA-B2100CD-1A4ER and the GA-B2100CD-1A7ER. Both have a design based on unique archeological sites and animal species.

The Year of the Snake is here, and multiple brands, such as G-shock and Oris, have put some effort into different watch models to mark this point in time. The G-shock GST-B400 is deeply rooted in Chinese culture, as it highlights zodiac concepts and zodiac animals in an interesting way.

While the watch comes with elements that align with the Year of the Snake, it still preserves G-shock’s signature look, thanks to the rugged design and black hues.
