Casio has announced the all-new G-SHOCK Urban utility, which reflects streetwear and urban functionality. Scheduled for release in Japan in November 2024, the collection includes four new models made with eco-friendly materials, including biomass plastic for the bezel and straps, as well as a carbon fiber reinforced case for increased durability on GA-B2100LUU models.
The DW-5610UU-3 and DW-5610UU-8 models feature a layered bezel structure in green and gray colorways. These models feature an inverted LCD display and convenient features like the Super Illuminator LED for nighttime readability. The GA-B2100LUU models, available in beige (GA-B2100LUU-5A) and gray (GA-B2100LUU-8A), adopt a two-tone double molded frame structure, which contributes to an aesthetic that is both elegant and pleasing.
The GA-B2100LUU models feature Bluetooth technology for automatic time adjustment and Tough Solar technology, which extends battery life and reduces the need for frequent charging. Other features of the series include a stopwatch, countdown timer, multi-alarm function and 20 bar water resistance.
The DW-5610UU models are priced at 15,400 yen (~$101), while the GA-B2100LUU models are priced at 25,850 yen (~$170), including taxes. This series combines classic G-SHOCK resilience with modern, eco-friendly materials, making it ideal for consumers looking for style and functionality in one package.
