CASIO GMW-B5000GD-9JF

The first G-SHOCK model, the DW-5000C, was born in 1983. The iconic square design remains intact, but the GMW-B5000 series is now fully metal and equipped with advanced functions such as smartphone link.

The shock-resistant structure of the watch, which sandwiches a fine resin buffer between the hard stainless steel metal bezel and the main case, makes it possible to make the case fully metal. The size is also maintained thanks to high-density mounting technology. The back cover is a heavy-duty screw-back case with DLC treatment for excellent wear resistance. The metal band pieces are dimpled to inherit the resin band design of the first model. Visibility is also improved using a film solar cell and STN-LCD (liquid crystal).

In terms of functionality, it is equipped with Bluetooth® communication function, and accurate time information can be obtained by linking with a dedicated app. It also has practical features such as a time correction system using standard radio waves (Multiband 6), stable operation using Tough Solar, high-brightness full auto LED backlight, world time, and day of the week display in 7 languages.

This G-SHOCK retains its roots but is now made entirely of metal, making it even more sophisticated.
