Casio recently introduced a new collection of G-Shock shock-resistant watches with four models joining its roster. This includes the GMW-B5000PC, GMW-B5000BPC, GM-B2100PC, and GM-B2100BPC. All of these are elevated with a new build that highlights metal materials along with bright tonal details and special gradient looks.
The shock-resistant versions come in some of the most popular silhouettes including the GMW-B5000 and the GM-B2100 with a unique twist. The new watch faces have a colorful theme with gradients that are inspired by tough individuals, which is represented by the metal material. The striking blue and green gradient can be seen on the GMW-B5000PC and GMW-B5000BPC, which is done through a glass vapor deposition that surrounds the digital face. Other gradient themes include purple and blue or orange and red.
