Casio is expanding its G-SHOCK portfolio with the all-new G-SHOCK Virtual World collection for men featuring designs inspired by virtual experiences. With minimalist black bezels and sleek bands accented by blue-violet colors, the design of the timepieces "evokes a sense of digital culture and aesthetics."
The analog-digital styles bring familiar colorways to life, especially the ones that are often seen in video games, live events and concerts. The VR-inspired designs have been applied to G-SHOCK's most popular models: the GA2100, GA700 and GA900.
To go along with the release of the G-SHOCK Virtual World collection, there's an exclusive new landing page that has been created to walk customers through the collection and their technical features like shock and water resistance, daily alarms and more.
