Casio to Release G-SHOCK Watches with a Tough Silicone Band That Delivers Both Comfortable Fit and Abrasion Resistance
Lifestyle Web Release Selection By Editor_wr On Mar 17, 2025
Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced today the release of the newest additions to its family of G-SHOCK shock-resistant watches. Featuring a stylish metal bezel and the Tough Silicone Band, which offers a comfortable fit and enhanced abrasion resistance, the new GM-5600YM, GM-5600YMG, GM-2100YM and GM-2100YMG watches are available in four models in total.
Guided by the Casio Purpose — 'Through the power to put wonder at hand, bring new levels of joy to lives one by one' — the company has demonstrated an ongoing commitment to delivering wonder and joy to customers in its Timepiece Business, pursuing functionality advancement, new material development, and unprecedented styles of expression in design.
The new watches are the first shock-resistant G-SHOCK watches to feature the Tough Silicone Band. This new band leverages the properties of silicone as a material to provide flexibility and an even more comfortable fit on the wrist. The Tough Silicone Band also delivers even greater abrasion resistance, employing a dual-layer construction that protects the silicone surface with urethane resin on top. While increasing the strength of the band, the construction enables a new form of expression in design as well, with vapor deposition applied to the resin.
The GM-5600YM and GM-5600YMG feature the iconic form inherited from the very first G-SHOCK, the DW-5000C, while the GM-2100YM and GM-2100YMG employ the octagonal bezel popular for its streamlined, minimalist design. All four models feature a stylish design with a metallic shine.
The watches are available in two colors: silver for a sharp look (GM-5600YM and GM-2100YM) and brilliant gold for an edgy look (GM-5600YMG and GM-2100YMG).
