Streamlined design with a metal bezel: Essential strength with striking functional beauty

The unmistakable metal bezel stands out against the monochromatic design to deliver a stunning presence with intricate sophistication. The metal form, created with advanced forging, cutting, and polishing techniques, delivers strength, beauty, and refinement. These watches proudly represent the functional beauty of minimalist modern industrial design: G-SHOCK toughness in an elegant timepiece with beautiful metalwork.

Functional beauty delivering shock resistance with a striking form

Featuring a modern industrial theme, the lineup delivers impressive functional beauty, with function-oriented elements of G-SHOCK design including shock resistance incorporated into the streamlined design. With a minimalist flair in an achromatic colour scheme, the design features a textured pattern applied to the metal bezel and red accents accentuating the function label to symbolise the G-SHOCK dedication to total toughness. The bezel also features a unique form with openings, allowing the centre case inside to show through, flaunting the core technology of G-SHOCK: the shock-resistant structure. Behold the functional beauty of design befitting the brand’s embodiment of strength and beauty.

Unique bezel form achieved with sophisticated metal processing and finishing techniques

Multiple processes are employed to achieve the distinctive structural beauty of the metal bezel. First, the intricate form inherited from the very first G-SHOCK is crafted with forging. Details evoking industrial product design are then added: a finely uneven texture pressed to the top surface, and openings cut into the lug portions. The entire exterior of the timepiece is honed to create a matte finish, and a hairline finish is then applied to the sides to enhance the texture of the metal while tempering the shine.

In addition, a black IP surface finish offering superior abrasion resistance is applied to the GM5600BM and GM2100BM. After the entire exterior is coated, the finish is partially removed from the top surface to expose the stainless steel beneath. The process creates a chic impression, adding depth to the bezel and a unified look.

Textured band complementing casual attire

The metal bezel is paired with a urethane band offering a superb fit and evoking industrial design with the combination of different materials. The band boasts a finely detailed square dot pattern created with state-of-the-art moulding technology, echoing the bezel design.

Attention to materials: Bio-based resin

Key resin components used in the band are made with bio-based resin, a material expected to help reduce environmental impact.
