Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced the release of a new addition to the full metal construction which is the GMW-B5000 series!

The new GMW-B5000CS inherits the form of the first model of the G-SHOCK. The new addition also features a laser-carved grid design with the rugged square shape of the first G-SHOCK. The GMW-B5000 is an epoch-making series featuring an evolved exterior with full metal construction of all the outer parts while maintaining the shape of the first ever G-SHOCK, the DW-5000C released in 1983 and adding further advanced features such as radio wave reception, Tough Solar power system, and smartphone connectivity.

Casio has continued to create inventive colour schemes and patterns using unique combinations of CMF*, including black ion plating, aged finishing, and camouflage design to ensure continued evolution of the series’ design since the release of the GMW-B5000 back in 2018.

The GMW-B5000CS features a grid design in the image of a time tunnel that connects the past with the future and this was to present G-SHOCK brand’s innovation while maintaining the heritage of that first model. A “near-future” design with prominent silver lines was forged by applying black ion plating finish to the bezel, band and buckle surface, while using a laser to carve out the latticed pattern, creating an underlying colour scheme.

That’s not all, the GMW-B5000CS is actually equipped with smartphone connectivity which allows automatic time correction to be performed 4 times a day and makes it easy to select cities for world time and adjust other settings easy and comes with other exceptionally practical features, including a high- luminosity full auto LED backlight.
