Casio has released the latest addition to its G-SHOCK shock-resistant watches, the DW-5600GU-7.
It will feature past characters from Master of G models designed for use on land, sea and air, all distilled into one timepiece.
The face and band of the DW-5600GU-7 is entirely covered in a camouflage design styled from iconic characters once engraved on the case back of Master of G watches.
Of all G-SHOCK watches, the Master of G line has won over adventurers looking to challenge the limits of toughness.
This latest addition brings back to life 18 of the line’s characters, including the iconic frog from the FROGMAN series, the mole from the MUDMAN series, as well as the RANGEMAN wild cat.
The band and bezel are specially designed to feature the distinctive traits of each character, making them easy to recognize amid the camouflage.
The individual characters are laid out in a camouflage design with a basic black-and-white color scheme for a stylish, cool design while other functions include a full auto-calendar; 12/24-hour format; EL backlight with afterglow; flash alert; hourly time signals and a countdown timer
The first character, the diving frog, was engraved on the back of the case of the first FROGMAN watch, the DW-6300, in 1993 in the hope that this expression of the playful G-SHOCK spirit would make users fall in love with the different Master of G series. Each subsequent model has used a unique character that embodied the series features.
