G-SHOCK is bringing a modern twist to what many know as the brand’s classic 1983 model with the new G-SHOCK MRGB5000.

A rugged silhouette with elevated design details, the watch is made out of COBARION alloy, a metal designed to be able to endure daily wear and tear without scratching. A rubber band matches the dark shade of the metal, offering comfort without compromising sophistication.

Rather than the typical single-piece design, the bezel of the G-SHOCK MRGB5000 is made up of 25 individual pieces forming an octagonal shape. A digital interface features gold accents alongside gold side buttons.

For nighttime use, the interface activates a backlight for greater readability. The watch also includes radio control and Bluetooth connectivity.

Priced at $3,100 USD, the G-SHOCK MRGB5000 is available now on the brand’s website.
