# Fog-Inspired Timepieces G-SHOCK's New 'Midnight Fog' Collection Evokes the Elusive Quality of Fog By Niko Pajkovic | Published 2022-03-22 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gshock References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2022/3/g-shock-midnight-fog-collection-gm2100mf) Iconic Casio-owned watch brand G-SHOCK has announced the launch of its 'Midnight Fog' collection, a new ensemble of stylish timepieces featuring honed metal designed to evoke the look and feel of night fog. The new collection includes three models -- the GM-2100MF, GM-5600MF, and GM-110MF -- all of which boast a revamped octagonal face in a matte finish. The watch's neutral-toned, metal-clad body comes with translucent straps and is offered in various subtle soft wash colors, lending each piece an appropriately foggy quality. In addition, the new Midnight Fog watches feature a super illuminator LED and EL backlight for nighttime transition, a countdown timer, a 200-meter water resistance, a built-in stopwatch, and a sophisticated alarm system that allows users to set up to five different alarms at one time.
