G-SHOCK RELEASES TWO-TONED METAL TIMEPIECE INSPIRED BY TOKYO AT TWILIGHT

Latest Model Features Striking Purple and Blue-Gray Ion-Plating and Premium Metal Finish

Casio announces the latest addition to its G-SHOCK Full Metal 5000 collection with the introduction of the all-new GMWB5000PB-6. The new timepiece arrives in eye-catching purple and blue-gray ion plating and the origin case shape of the DW5000, reminiscent of the very first G-SHOCK, now in a metal case.

The two-toned IP finish, a new approach to G-SHOCK’s Color, Material, and Finish (CMF) design principles, is inspired by the beauty of Tokyo at twilight when light and darkness interplay. The bezel and band feature a brand-new purple IP hue, along with a deep and sophisticated blue-gray IP for a sleek and stylish look. The watch face is adorned with subtle splashes of orange, purple and light blue, reminiscent of Tokyo at twilight. The dial itself features a reverse LCD, while the bezel and band boast hairline and mirror-finishes which enhance the texture of the metal to create a timepiece that is truly unique.

The new GMWB5000PB-6 comes equipped with G-SHOCK’s premium technical features including smartphone pairing capabilities via Bluetooth®, Multi-Band 6 Atomic Timekeeping for self-adjusting and accurate hour / date display virtually anywhere on the globe, Tough Solar Technology, a phone finder function making for a functional yet fashionable timepiece as we head into fall.

Additional features of the GMWB5000PB-6 include shock resistance, 200M water resistance, super illuminator LED light, five daily alarms, and a STN-LCD digital display that makes the watch easy to read from any angle.

The GMWB5000PB-6 retails for $600 and will be available for purchase mid-September at select G-SHOCK retailers, the G-SHOCK Soho Store, and gshock.com
