G-SHOCK Celebrates Dual Anniversaries With New MR-G FROGMAN Limited-Edition
Only 700 pieces are available worldwide.
G-SHOCK just unveiled its latest limited-edition MR-G FROGMAN MRGBF1000E1A watch. As part of the brand’s 40th anniversary, the new reference also celebrates 30 years of the FROGMAN dive watch model.
Attired with a bright yellow resin band, the MRGBF1000E1A harks back to the very first DW6300 FROGMAN with its iconic hue. The strap composition is updated with a more flexible and pliable materiality — a thoughtful implementation to ensure the watch can be worn over wetsuits. An additional titanium band option is also available for wearers who prefer a more tonal, and rugged look.
Its highly airtight case is composed of lightweight and rust-resistant titanium, put together in a multi-component structure that guarantees 200 meters of water resistance. On its dial are large indices coated in a thick layer of phosphorescent paint, which bestows the watch with a vibrant glow that maintains a solid level of readability even in the depths of the sea. A special etching can be observed on its sapphire crystal caseback that nods to its dual anniversary.
Synonymous with most G-SHOCK models, the new FROGMAN watch is completely solar-powered and is geared with incredible shock resistance. Only 700 pieces are available worldwide, the limited-edition MRGBF1000E1A retails for $,6,400 USD and is now available via the brand’s official website.
