G-SHOCK has launched its 'Forgotten Future' collection, which comprises the 'GA-700,' 'GA-2100,' 'GA-2200,' and the 'DW-5600' models. All four editions feature metallic paint and a mirror-finished dial, while the designs vary from model to model. The watches adopt a futuristic aesthetic, transporting consumers to outer space through their science fiction-inspired design.
The 'GA700FF-8A' boasts a silver vapor deposition, metallic angular indexes, and an industrial aesthetic. The 'GA2200FF-8A' adds translucent material for a contrast between the dial and indices. The 'GA2100FF-8A' is similar but opts for a circular hairline finish to complement the colors of the watch. Finally, the 'DW5600FF-8' has a minimalist design with an octagonal shape, and this piece completes the collection.
The G-SHOCK 'Forgotten Future' collection is available on the brand's website for a limited time.
