A metal bezel model that maintains the slim size that characterizes the 2100 series, and is equipped with smartphone link and tough solar.❗😎

As a model in the G-SHOCK 2100 series that specializes in "balancing design and functionality,"GBM-2100A-2BDRwas released in June 2024.
The octagonal design features a stainless steel metal bezel, a circumferential hairline on the top surface, and a time-consuming process of mirror polishing on the sides, an iconic form that inherits the DNA of the first G-SHOCK model. Blue vapor deposition is applied to the dial and silver vapor deposition is applied to the indexes to create a beautiful face with high contrast.

It maintains the slim size (49.3 x 44.4 x 11.9 mm, approx. 72 g) of the 2100 series, while providing comfortable operation with tough solar and Bluetooth. One of the features of this model is the environmental friendliness of using biomass plastic for the main resin parts of the case and band. It's a piece that can be matched with both casual and business settings.

The presence of the metal bezel stands out even when viewed side by side.

■ “Upgrading G-SHOCK” with metal bezel

The most important feature of GBM-2100A-2BDR is the stainless steel metal bezel. This bezel, which was formed through a time-consuming process of forging, cutting, and polishing, has a two-sided finish with a circumferential hairline on the top and mirror polishing on the sides, giving it a rich expression depending on how the light hits it. The iconic octagonal form inherited from the first G-SHOCK model stands out even more with the metal texture.

The difference in appearance from the regular G-Shock is obvious at a glance. The high-contrast face, which creates a contrast between the blue vapor-deposited dial and the silver-deposited indexes, has a sporty yet classy finish. The true value of the GBM-2100A series is the balance between maintaining the G-Shock feel and being able to wear it in a business setting.

■ “Reduce the hassle to zero” with Tough Solar x Bluetooth

GBM-2100A-2BDR is equipped with tough solar and will keep charging automatically when there is light. It can be operated for approximately 18 months in power saving state after a full charge, and there is no need to regularly replace the battery. This alone is sufficient, but by connecting to a smartphone via Bluetooth, you can automatically adjust the time and set world time for approximately 300 cities.

By linking with the dedicated app "CASIO WATCHES", you can also use functions such as time & place recording, reminders, and mobile phone search. The practical appeal of this model is that it eliminates the hassle of adjusting the time and changing settings every day.

■ The value of the 2100 series' "slim form"

At 49.3mm long x 44.4mm wide x 11.9mm thick and approximately 72g, it is one of the most compact and lightweight models in the G-SHOCK line. The profile, which is less than 12mm thick, fits easily into the cuff of a jacket or suit, and does not have the "unstylish look" characteristic of sports models. This is why it is chosen by a wide range of people, from those who are buying G-SHOCK for the first time to those who want to add it to their collection.

The band is compatible with a maximum of 215mm and a minimum of 140mm, so it fits a wide range of wrists, from thin to thick. The environmental friendliness of using biomass plastic also gives you peace of mind when choosing a model that will last for a long time.
