Casio expands its G-SHOCK family of shock-proof watches by presenting new models with integrated bezel and band construction.
Both GA-B001 and GA-B001G come with an exterior structure to achieve an integrated bezel and band construction in a shock-resistant watch.
Presently four timepieces are available in this new G-SHOCK series: GA-B001-1AER, GA-B001-4AER, GA-B001G-1AER and GA-B001G-2AER.
These are the first Casio G-SHOCK watches to have this innovative structure, which comprises two separate components that connect at the 9 and 3 o’clock positions. The molded construction follows the lines of the wrist, minimizing the space between the wrist and watch for an enhanced fit.
They stand out with a futuristic geometric dial design and round index marks. The Casio G-Shock GA-B001 models feature the black G-SHOCK brand color and a new shade of red, and the GA-B001G models employ gradated color print on translucent materials for the bezel and band.
These watches are all equipped with Mobile Link features for pairing with a smartphone via Bluetooth®. When used with the dedicated CASIO WATCHES app, the watch automatically adjusts to the correct time.
In addition, the App information function sends notifications on the watch when the app receives updates on new products and other information.
