The G-Shock Bluetooth Watch has just made its debut. Although not much has changed in terms of the way the watch looks in comparison to older G-Shock watches, this is definitely a breakthrough chronograph. The Bluetooth function will allow this timepiece to sync to a Bluetooth 4.0 mobile device, helping you keep track of alerts and alarms.

The G-Shock Bluetooth Watch has all the standard features that are expected of all G-shock products: a calendar, alarm system, stop watch and more. It also sticks to the [iconic look of the brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gshock-models), featuring a black and blue trim, a [rugged body](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gshock-analogdigital-ga010) that is 53.2mm wide and 18.2mm thick, and a light feel on the wrist. According to aBlogToRead, the "low energy profile" of Bluetooth 4.0 means that the G-Shock Bluetooth Watch can run for two years on a single battery.
