GMW-B5000 / Released to celebrate the 35th anniversary of this iconic design.

A SQUARE CASE WITH A FULL-METAL SHOCK-RESISTANT STRUCTURE.
ACHIEVED THROUGH SYSTEMATIC EVOLUTION FROM ONE STAGE TO THE NEXT.

The first G-SHOCK model DW-5000C was born in 1983. Its symbolic square design is reinvented with a full-metal shock-resistant structure and the latest advanced functions, including Smartphone Link. The only truly tough watch continues to challenge greater heights.

Fine-resin cushioning material is inserted between the stainless-steel case and bezel, and the module is enclosed in a protective shell. A shock-resistant structure with a metal exterior is realized, while maintaining the form of the first G-SHOCK model.

With the GMW-B5000, the completely waste-free form G-SHOCK realized as the origin of its pursuit of shock resistance has reached a degree of perfection that can be considered its final form.
The band connection sections employ a three-pronged structure to distribute the impact from shocks to the connection piping.

Hair-line finishing is applied to the upper surface of the bezel and sides of the case and mirror finishing to the case back. Metal texturing is maximized throughout. DLC treatment is applied to enhance its wear resistance.

The designs of the logo, function display, digital LCD and other features are modelled on those that embellished the dial of the first G-SHOCK DW-5000C.

The solar panel has been changed from glass to an easily processed film material. Other advances include adoption of an STN LCD affording higher contrasts and a wider viewing angle. The standard time radio wave and Bluetooth communications antenna are placed in the vicinity of the LCD window or button shafts to avoid any influence of the full-metal structure on reception sensitivity.

This app enables you to stamp events and the time of their occurrence on the map with watch button operation.
