Introducing the GMWB5000 line of full-metal timepieces that delivers state-of-the-art functionality in a design true to the very first G-SHOCK.

The GMW-B5000-3 inherits this legacy and carries it forward in an effortlessly refined full-metal G-SHOCK design with a silver gleam accented by an outline of fresh green.

Buffering components made of fine resin installed between the stainless-steel metal bezel and case deliver a shock-resistant structure in a full-metal timepiece. High-density mounting technology keeps this watch just as slim and compact as other GMW-B5000 designs.

The solid screw-lock case back, finished with DLC coating, delivers even greater abrasion resistance. Dimpling applied to metal band pieces reproduces the look of the resin band of the very first G-SHOCK, while the film solar panel and STN-LCD digital display provide exceptional visibility and an easier read.

This innovative timepiece delivers full-on functionality, as well. Download the dedicated app to pair with your smartphone via Bluetooth®. With Multiband 6 radio control for automatic precision timekeeping, Tough Solar for stable operation of functions, high-brightness full auto LED backlight, world time, day display in six languages, and more, you’ll be at peak performance.

EVOLUTION BACK TO THE ORIGIN

The use of metal material requires the most advanced processing technologies to reproduce the design of the first G-SHOCK model. We apply leading-edge forging and cutting technologies in our commitment to evoking the beauty of finely inscribed details and to attaining a finish that maximises the beauty of the metal textures.
The result is a level of quality that sets a new standard for tough watch design.

Square case with full-metal shock-resistant structure

Achieved through systematic evolution from one stage to the next. The first G-SHOCK model DW-5000C was born in 1983.

Its symbolic square design is reinvented with a full-metal shock-resistant structure and the latest advanced functions, including Smartphone Link.

The only truly tough watch continues to challenge greater heights.

Shock resistance achieved with a full-metal case

The new shock-resistant structure

Fine-resin cushioning parts are inserted between the bezel case and the inner case. Besides achieving a highly accurate fit, this structure responds with reactive force to ease shocks when tiny protrusions in the cushioning material are compressed.


Fortification of moving parts

Band connection structure

The double-lug structure conventionally used to connect the band to the case has been redesigned to create a three-pronged lug structure. Shocks to the connecting pipes and button shafts are dispersed, and the band attachment is reinforced.

Protecting the button shafts from shocks

Button structure

The specially developed button structure combines large cylindrical forged buttons with internal pipes that guard the vulnerable button shafts from the inside against lateral shocks.


Increased airtightness specifications

Screw-lock case back

The airtight, heavy-duty screw-lock case back replicates the first model’s. The slanted surfaces are mirror-finished, and DLC (diamond-like carbon) treatment is applied overall for enhanced wear resistance.

A fusion of strength and beauty

Bezel case

After sculpting the form through repeated forging, cutting and polishing, artisans apply mirror polishing and hairline finishing to the surfaces in pursuit of flawless beauty. The case back surface is finely machined to remove any unevenness and assure an accurate fit with the cushioning parts.


Solid feel and superior wearing comfort

Metal band

The design of the first model’s resin band is reproduced by applying dimple-processing to the stainless-steel band pieces. Each piece is alternately pressed and polished in an unstinting effort to assure beautiful finishing that extends to the bottoms of the dimples.

Extending attentive workmanship to unseen parts

Inner case

After a process involving 10 or more forging and cutting steps, a complex form with integrated lugs and complicated shapes comprising various fitted and cushioning parts takes shape. Precision parts facilitating smooth, accurate assembly are produced.


Maintaining G-SHOCK’s origins without change

Original square design

The design of the first G-SHOCK model has been maintained continuously from the origin. Casio’s efforts in pursuit of universal usability have encompassed the structure with its undivided attention to shock resistance, the large LCD offering excellent visibility and the minimalist form that eschews any interference with wearing ease and comfort.

The airtight, heavy-duty screw-lock case back replicates the first model’s. The slanted surfaces are mirror-finished, and DLC (diamond-like carbon) treatment is applied overall for enhanced wear resistance.

The heart of a multifunction watch

LSI layout

The mounting position of the standard time radio wave antenna is calculated to ensure stable radio reception sensitivity inside a full-metal case. In this and other ways, the highly precise LSI design has solved the problems associated with a metal exterior and multi-functionality.


Breakthroughs in functional innovation

Dedicated design module

We have leveraged our proprietary high-density mounting, miniaturisation and power-saving technologies to install multiple functions without increasing the watch’s size. This innovative functional evolution has included such achievements as simultaneous installation of Bluetooth® communications and radio-controlled, solar-powered timekeeping.
