Casio announces retail availability of connected G-Steel

Casio G-Shock has announced that the G-Steel Connected Carbon Bezel is now available for purchase.

The latest addition to the men’s G-Steel line, the GSTB100XA-1A is the most recent of G-Shock’s connected models.

It features a carbon bezel, a sapphire crystal and a two-tone layered band.

Announced earlier this year at Couture 2018, the GSTB100XA-1A uses Bluetooth low energy technology to pair with smart phones via the G-Shock Connected App.

The urethane band is produced using a bi-colour moulding process that makes it possible to decorate the outer surface with a pattern while a metal band ring reduces the chance of band breakage due to abrasion.

Adding to its durability is a lightweight, layered carbon bezel which is a combination of state-of-the-art Toray Industries Torayca and Nanoalloy, resulting in the shock resistant characteristics.

A highly scratch resistant, clear sapphire glass is used for the crystal to enhance readability and appearance, the piece also incorporates solar-powered charging capabilities, and employs a super LED light and Neo-Brite luminous hands for maximum visibility.

The GSTB100XA-1A is now available for around £450 at standard G-shock retailers including Macy’s, the G-Shock Soho Store and gshock.com.
