G-SHOCK is gearing up for the warm weather with a ’90s revival. Five of the label’s classic timepieces have been given a see-through makeover — inspired by retro designs, elevated with contemporary versatility.

With the runaway success of the “Glacier Gold” collection, an accessible follow-up is only logical. This release encompasses four different models — the DW-5600, DW-6900, GA-700 and two editions of the GA-400 — all of which boast buckled clasps and transparent plastic cases. Three items offer muted grey hues, while the pair of GA-400 watches sport bold pops of color by way of yellow and pink faces. Black detailing on the other timepieces offers a sophisticated accent to the throwback designs.

Take a close look at each of the forthcoming models below and stay tuned for the collection’s launch in April.

Recently, Ron Herman Japan commissioned a bespoke blue GWX-5700 timepiece.
