Product Introduction
In 2018, 35 years after the release of the original DW-5000C, the GMW-B5000, featuring a full-metal case and Connected Engine, was released. Based on the concepts of "evolved exterior," "evolved structure," and "evolved module," the GMW-B5000 features a full-metal case and bezel made of hard stainless steel with an ion-plated finish for vibrant color. Available in black and gold, the new model features a hairline finish on the case and band, enhancing the luxurious and sophisticated metal texture. The inverted LCD display adds a chic touch to the watch. The base model, the GMW-B5000, revises G-SHOCK's core hollow structure technology to further enhance its shock resistance. A fine resin buffer is sandwiched between the metal bezel and the case, creating a new shock-resistant design that can withstand even a full-metal case. The band attachment point, where it receives the most impact, utilizes highly shock-resistant ROGAMID, reducing shock to the band attachment pipe. The watch also features a substantial screw-back case, with a DLC back for superior abrasion resistance. Clear visibility is also a priority, with a film solar cell and an STN-LCD (liquid crystal display) that makes the time display easy to read, even from an angle. High-density packaging technology allows for a compact design while maintaining the advanced engine. The watch maintains its refined design while evolving the exterior and module. Functionality is focused on precise timekeeping, with Bluetooth communication and Multiband 6, which supports standard timekeeping signals from six stations around the world. By connecting with the dedicated G-SHOCK Connected*1 app, the watch obtains accurate time information from an online time server. In areas where standard time signals from six stations around the world are available, the watch features a radio wave reception function that automatically adjusts the time and maintains accurate time. Casio's proprietary power-saving Tough Solar technology ensures stable operation, and the watch also features practical features such as a high-brightness fully automatic LED backlight and World Time. It also supports localization with a day of the week display in six languages*2. This watch represents a legitimate evolution in pursuit of global basics, displaying accurate time anywhere in the world. While retaining the concept inherited from the original model, the GMW-B5000GD boasts refined exterior, structure, and module for horological quality, complete with a full metal case. This model is a gold model.
*1 This is an app exclusively for G-SHOCK smartphone link models. It connects with a smartphone to automatically adjust the time and set world time, etc., via the Bluetooth-enabled "Connected Engine," and displays the latest time zone and daylight saving time information anywhere in the world. Equipped with Tough Solar, this watch supports solar-powered functions that require heavy loads.

G-SHOCK established a new concept in watchmaking: toughness. It all began with the developers' passionate belief in creating a watch that would not break even if dropped, a seemingly foolhardy challenge that overturned conventional wisdom at the time. After over 200 prototypes and approximately two years of work, the shock-resistant structure was perfected. This marked the birth of the technology at the heart of toughness. Since then, G-SHOCK has continued to evolve endlessly, striving for even greater toughness in every aspect: structure, materials, and functionality.
