The G-SHOCK Black & Electro Green Collection has been debuted as a series of tactical accessories engineered with performance in mind to help build on the brand's reputation for durability.
The timepiece range features five models in all that are each paired with LCD screens envisioned in a green color that gives them a militant aesthetic. The watches thus each appear like retro military radar screens, which is further enhanced with a series of green-tipped hands and accents across the dial.
The G-SHOCK Black & Electro Green Collection offers 200-meters of water resistance and is being launched now in Japan. The various timepieces are priced competitively ranging from 14,850 to 27,500 yen to give them an accessible appeal.
