Casio Computer Co., Ltd. is set to launch a cosmic celebration of strength and style with its latest G-SHOCK watches, marking the 40th anniversary of the iconic brand. The groundbreaking GCW-B5000UN introduces a fusion of carbon materials, redefining shock resistance, and delivering a feather-light experience.
Galactic Strength, Minimal Weight
Inheriting the signature silhouette of the first G-SHOCK, the GCW-B5000UN pioneers a new era with carbon materials crafted through diverse production processes. The use of forged carbon for the bezel and band, along with multilayer carbon for the clasp’s folding arm, allows for unparalleled flexibility and strength. The monocoque case and integrated case back are crafted from carbon fiber-reinforced resin, achieving both durability and reduced weight.
Revolutionizing Weight Standards
Weighing in at a mere 65g, the GCW-B5000UN sets a new benchmark for lightweight G-SHOCK timepieces, presenting a 61% reduction compared to its full-metal predecessor, the GMW-B5000D. This remarkable feat is achieved without compromising the brand’s renowned shock resistance.
Cosmic Design, Individual Flourish
The design of the GCW-B5000UN pays homage to the infinite wonders of outer space, drawing inspiration from the Big Bang and celestial bodies. The two-model lineup offers a choice between a cosmic purple, featuring mixed-color molding with opal specks, and a classic black variant. Thanks to the characteristics of forged carbon, each timepiece boasts unique individual differences in pattern, color tone, and opal speck distribution, making every watch a one-of-a-kind cosmic masterpiece.
Casio’s Ode to Innovation
The GCW-B5000UN seamlessly blends G-SHOCK’s commitment to innovation with a design that captures the essence of the cosmos. As the brand celebrates four decades of revolutionizing the watch industry, these carbon-crafted marvels not only symbolize strength and resilience but also reflect the limitless possibilities that lie beyond.
