Luxe Samurai-Inspired Timepieces

The G-Shock MRG-B2000BS-3A Commemorates MR-G's 25th Anniversary

The new G-Shock MRG-B2000BS-3A marks the 25th anniversary of the MR-G line in style with a samurai-inspired timepiece design. The limited-edition luxury watch was modeled after a set of Hana-Basara armor Suzukine Yuzan specially made for G-Shock. The G-Shock MRG-B2000BS-3A has chrome elements with red and yellow details accenting the sleek brown and black exterior.

The limited-edition watch, which comes in an exclusive run of 400 units, is made with premium materials. The case and band are made of titanium and treated with a diamond-like carbon coating that offers the watch its signature finish. Despite its apparently luxury, the G-Shock MRG-B2000BS-3A is durable and functional, boasting shock resistance, solar charging, and Casio's Smart Access system.
