Casio has been the brand of choice for users who want a tough timekeeper that can take a lot of abuse. The G-SHOCK series features a healthy mix of configurations that will suit the tastes of consumers. You have analog, digital, and hybrid options alongside newer models that have smart functions via Bluetooth connectivity. The latter are ideal alternatives for users who are still on the fence about migrating to a smartwatch. Once in a while, the brand releases a limited edition model that just stands out from the rest, like the Casio G-SHOCK Gravitymaster.
A common feature among regular G-SHOCK watches are the huge bumpers that surround the bezel. These absorb most of the accidental impacts but might turn off potential buyers. Hence, to make the Gravitymaster look like a traditional wristwatch without sacrificing protection, clever workarounds are in place. To make the case virtually-indestructible, Casio is using a mix of carbon fiber and a special resin for a lightweight 50 mm case. The strap, on the other hand, is carbon fiber.
The Casio G-SHOCK Gravitymaster also comes with some premium elements. Most of its metal components are using titanium alloy making them rust-resistant and durable. The dial along with the sub-dials sit under a sapphire crystal with a non-reflective coating. Additionally, the screw-lock crown keeps everything waterproof up to 200 meters. Never worry about batteries because this watch draws power from sunlight. Finally, as long as it’s connected to your smartphone, time zones are automatically updated for convenience with a function for with home city time swapping.
