Features

G-SHOCK, the watch that has been setting the standard for timekeeping toughness since 1983, announces a new collection of analog-digital combination models based on the popular GA Series, but with new face and hand designs.

These new models inherit the big-case designs from the classic GA-100. A motif that resembles a 90's stereo component device or portable music player is updated to a modern refined look while maintaining G-SHOCK level toughness.
