Introduced early October, the G-SHOCK GA700 features front button case design and 3D bold hands on the face. The front button, located at six o’clock, offers convenient control of the Full Auto Super Illuminator LED Light.
A perfect gift for those who has everything but time, the GA700 is available in three colorways, including black with red accents (GA700-1A), all black (GA700-1B) and red with black accents (GA700-4A).
Additionally, the watch is equipped with standard G-SHOCK technology, including 200M Water Resistance and Shock Resistance. The model also features World Time with 31 time zones that includes 48 cities + UTC, as well as 4 Daily Alarms, 1/10th second stopwatch, a countdown timer, and 12/24hr formats, all in a 53.4mm case.
The GA700-1A, GA700-1B and GA700-4A will retail for $99 USD beginning November 2016, and will be available for purchase at standard G-SHOCK retailers, including Macy’s, shopcasio.com, and the G-SHOCK Soho Store.
CASIO’s shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch is synonymous with toughness, born from the developer Mr. Ibe’s dream of ‘creating a watch that never breaks’. Over 200 handmade samples were created and tested to destruction until finally in 1983 the first, now iconic G-SHOCK hit the streets of Japan and began to establish itself as ‘the toughest watch of all time’. Each watch encompasses the 7 elements; electric shock resistance, gravity resistance, low temperature resistance, vibration resistance, water resistance, shock resistance and toughness.
The watch is packed with Casio innovations and technologies to prevent it from suffering direct shock; this includes internal components protected with urethane and suspended timekeeping modules inside the watch structure. Since its launch, G-SHOCK has continued to evolve, continuing to support on Mr. Ibe’s mantra “never, never give up.” www.gshock.com
