In celebration of G-SHOCK’s 40th year, the brand has launched the Clear Remix line of watches; an offering which utilises transparent materials to give a view to the watches’ internal components.
The G-SHOCK project began with the idea of developing “a tough watch that wouldn’t break, even if dropped.”
In a process of repeated testing, the construction and materials were redesigned again and again. This tireless pursuit in the face of challenges bore fruit in 1983 with the debut of the G-SHOCK.
Casio has since released an array of different G-SHOCK watches that carry on this evolution in function and design.
Today, the G-SHOCK brand is loved around the world, with more than 140 million units shipped to date.
The 40th anniversary Clear Remix shock-resistant watches embody the G-SHOCK spirit of challenge in designs that offer a view of the internal componentry, including the module and circuit board.
Seven popular G-SHOCK models, including the very first G-SHOCK with its iconic design, have been carefully selected and redesigned with see-through materials used for the case, band, LCD, buttons, and other elements.
DW-5040RX*/DWE-5640RX*
Based on the form of the first G-SHOCK, these models feature a see-through LCD, allowing the G mark-adorned circuit board to show through. The DWE-5640RX adds a band in a contrasting mix of resin and metal materials.
DW-6940RX*
The original DW-6900 with its three indicators, now with a see-through LCD, dial, and center case, leaving the G mark pattern on the underlying circuit board subtly visible.
* At certain viewing angles, the interior of the dial may be difficult to see.
GA-114RX/GMA-S114RX
These digital-analog combination watches, based on the GA-110 and GMA-S110, feature a see-through center case and see-through resin side buttons for a unified clear color scheme.
GA-2140RX/GMA-S2140RX
These models add a see-through dial to the GA-2100 and GMA-S2100, which feature an octagonal bezel. The index marks and dial ring are also see-through for a clear view of the module below the dial.
