Casio to Release Standout G-SHOCK in Black Full-Metal Design
TOKYO, Feb. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

- Featuring Intricate Combination of Multiple Finishes

Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced today the latest addition to its G-SHOCK 
brand of shock-resistant watches. Based on the GMW-B5000, the original 
full-metal take on the first-ever G-SHOCK, the new GMW-B5000MB features an 
array of detailed finishes that come together in a refined black design.

The GMW-B5000MB brings together individual components treated with honing 
finishes* and multiple polishings in a premium-quality, shock-resistant watch 
with a uniquely appealing look that makes the most of rich texture and feel.

The entire exterior of the timepiece is honed and treated with black ion 
plating to deliver matte black sophistication, and additional finishes are 
applied to individual details. The hairline finish on the raised areas on the 
side of the bezel and the sides of the band retains a metallic texture, while 
tempering the shine. The mirror finish, by contrast, adds glossy shine to the 
surface of the screws, buttons, and other details.

With this latest model, Casio adds a new finishing process, as well. After the 
initial black ion plating, the top surface of the bezel is polished again with 
a hairline finish to expose most of the stainless steel beneath, with its 
silver-colored gleam. The chic and seamless integration of the silvery hue of 
the stainless steel of the bezel and matte black of the body, complemented by 
multiple intricate finishes, results in a beautifully detailed, quality design 
with a one-of-a-kind, sophisticated look.

it with fine abrasives
 
The functionality of the GMW-B5000MB is just as good as its design. The watch 
comes with both standard radio wave reception and Smartphone Link connectivity, 
which allows the owner to use the G-SHOCK Connected app to maintain precision 
timekeeping and easily manage alarms, world time, and other settings. The watch 
can also use handy Reminder and Phone finder functions when paired with the app.
