Evolved Metal Watches

G-SHOCK Debuts the 'Full-Metal GM-B2100' Trio in Three Unique Colorways

— July 29, 2022 — Fashion
G-SHOCK has launched a three-piece ‘Full-Metal GM-B2100’ collection of its Casi-Oak model, offering the watch in silver, dark gray, and copper. This is the first time that the popular model has been provided in a full metal format, and to mark the collection's release, the GMB2100 campaign will be fronted by G-SHOCK’s newest ambassador, Steven Bartlett.

The watches boast a three-step surface finishing process that sees the models brushed and polished to offer a three-dimensional look. The ‘GMB2100’ also includes three lug connectivity, screw-back case backs, and is just 12.8mm thick, making it the slimmest full-metal model in G-SHOCK’s product lineup. Consumers can also enjoy ‘Tough Solar’ charging and Bluetooth capabilities by using the watches’ Smartphone Link function.

The G-Shock ‘Full-Metal GM-B2100’ collection launches in August 2022.
