# Rhinestone Sport Watches Mio Goto Gives the G-Shock Mini a Nifty Twinkle By wang fangqing/ Frances Wang | Published 2009-05-14 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gshockmini References: [sp.elle.co.jp](http://sp.elle.co.jp/fashion/casio/0903/) Mio Goto, a popular stylist in Japan, launched a new line for [G-shock](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/womens-gmap2100-series) mini, a sport watch brand under [Casio](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hidden-glow). Unlike the conventional G-shock sports watches, whose tough look is usually favored by men, the new line is incredibly feminine thanks to the embedded shiny stones and crystals. Based on the themes 'marine' and 'tribal', the new line has two different color combos: the blue/white hued “Love Summer” version and the gold/brown “Secret Queen” one. **Implications** - Businesses that opt to incorporate a wide range of vibrant colors and gem designs in their products are likely to experience favorable designs. These products will appeal to a wide range of clientele because their bright times and studded design is easily recognizable. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 69% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/watches) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Vibrant Color Designs:** Businesses incorporating vibrant colors in their products will appeal to a wide range of clientele. - **Gem-inspired Designs:** Products with embedded shiny stones and crystals offer a feminine touch and attract customers. - **Popular Stylist Collaborations:** Collaborating with popular stylists like Mio Goto can help sport watch brands create unique and marketable designs. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Accessories:** The fashion accessory industry can take advantage of vibrant color and gem designs to create trendy and appealing products. - **Sport Watch:** Sport watch brands can explore collaborations with stylists to create new lines that cater to different customer preferences. - **Jewelry:** The jewelry industry can be inspired by gem-inspired designs and incorporate them into their own products for a fashionable and trendy appeal. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Lustrously Chic Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/womens-gmap2100-series.md) - [Ocean-Inspired Watch Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hidden-glow.md) - [Feminine Lavender-Hued Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casio-gshock-gmap2125w6a.md) - [Miniature Digital Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dwn5600-nano-ring.md) - [Pearlescent Neutral-Toned Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casio-america.md) - [Compact Chromatic Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gshock-casioak-mini-black-rainbow.md) - [Chromatic Crystalline Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gshock-2100-series-rainbow-watch.md) - [Vibrant Y2K-Inspired Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gshock-dw6900-crazy-colors-series.md) - [Doll-Inspired Bright Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-and-casio.md)
