G-Shock Launches New Line of ‘Semi-Transparent’ Watches
Clear things up with these sporty G-Shock timepieces.
Casio‘s popular G-Shock brand is a watchmaker that just keeps on giving. Their latest drop is an icy new line-up of men’s watches with semi-transparent bands and bezels.
They give the wearer G-Shock’s sturdiest and most popular base designs in Transparent Gray for series numbers GA2000, GA900, and GA110 and Transparent White for the DW5600, GA700, and GA2100 model lines.
Collectively, G-Shock calls these timepieces the Transparent Pack. They were all created with a semi-transparent resin that’s eye-catching and sleek in an understated way.
Design-wise, the analog-digital Gray series model GA2000SKE-8A comes with a tough Carbon Core Guard Case with a Super Illuminator Double LED light. The GA900SKE-8A has a killer 7 years of battery life and the GA110SKE-8A features magnetic resistance.
The new Transparent White G-Shocks come with the accustomed premium design expected from their base models. Square-cased model DW5600SKE-7 has an EL backlight for readability in any condition, and the GA700SKE-7A comes with a unique front-button design while the GA2100SKE-7A features an octagon-shaped bezel.
Per the manufacturer, all these models come with the usual practical G-Shock features, including:
- Shock Resistance
- 200M Water Resistance
- LED Light (Super Illuminator Double LED on the GA2000SKE-8A)
- Daily Alarm(s)
- Stopwatch
- Countdown Timer (24Hr)
- Full Auto Calendar (to year 2099)
- World Time: 29-31Time Zones / 27Cities + UTC (Except DW5600SKE-7 model)
