Casio to Release Octagonal G-SHOCK with Advanced Functionality
TOKYO, April 14, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

- Iconic 2100 Line with Bluetooth(R) Connectivity and Solar Charging System

Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced today the latest addition to the G-SHOCK 
brand of shock-resistant watches. The five new GA-B2100 watches are the first 
in the iconic octagonal 2100 line to be equipped with Smartphone Link 
connectivity via Bluetooth(R) and solar charging capabilities.

Released in 2019, the base-model GA-2100 was a contemporary interpretation of 
the very first G-SHOCK, the DW-5000C. Its simple, stylish design proved popular 
around the world, especially among younger consumers.

With Bluetooth(R) connectivity and a solar charging system, the new GA-B2100 
shock-resistant watches add a whole new level of convenience. Smartphone 
pairing* via Bluetooth(R) delivers accurate timekeeping. The Tough Solar 
charging system effectively converts light from fluorescent lamps and other 
sources to power the watch, eliminating the need to regularly replace the 
battery.

* Requires downloading the dedicated CASIO WATCHES app.

In addition, these watches feature a slim module with optimized component 
layout to retain the compact watch face for which the 2100 line is known, yet 
still deliver enhanced functionality. Combining this with the Carbon Core Guard 
structure, which protects the module with a carbon fiber-reinforced resin case, 
provides both shock resistance and a compact case that is still the same length 
and width as the GA-2100.

For these additions, Casio returns to the classic colors first used in the 
G-SHOCK 5600 line with reproductions of the yellow, green and blue of the 
DW-5600C-9BV (released in 1987, EOL), DW-5600B-3V (released in 1987, EOL), and 
DW-5600B-2V (released in 1987, EOL). There are also two black options — a black 
and gray model in the same color scheme as the DW-5600C-1V (released in 1987, 
EOL) from the original 5600 series, as well as an all-black model.

Model - Color
GA-B2100-1A - Black(X)Gray
GA-B2100-1A1 - Black(X)Black
GA-B2100-2A - Blue
GA-B2100-3A - Green
