Casio G-SHOCK GA-150 & GA-150A

Posted on by

The new shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch models GA-150 and GA-150A feature a three-dimensional watch face that expresses toughness and strength.  The new models have a bold watch face design that makes the resin material look almost as if carved out of a block of stone, conveying  the tough, street culture look G-SHOCK is known for.

The dial has a  concave design that sinks into the watch face and a glossy finish, which creates distinctive shadows and a feeling of depth. The lines  running vertically and horizontally on the bezel look like they have  been carved with a knife and make the solid design stand out even more.

The side buttons have an anti-slip surface for more reliable operation.  In addition to the GA-150 watches, which come in black and white, the  GA-150A watches are available in a choice of three colors with a  striking smoky finish: metallic orange, green, and blue.

These models  feature a semi-gloss coating on the dial to achieve a high-quality  aluminum appearance. The bezel, band, and dial are rendered in the same  color, which accentuates the three-dimensional face design and the rest  of the bold watch shape.  In addition to shock resistance, both models  feature a 1/1000-second stopwatch and magnetic resistance. These  practical watches offer easy readability thanks to the bold,  three-dimensional design.
