G-SHOCK, a utility-focused watch brand owned by Casio, has announced the launch of an all-new version of its GA-2100 watch collection called the 'GA-B2100.' The new series delivers a variety of upgrades that build on the previous iteration's retro aesthetics while also introducing new future-forward technical elements.
