Three Of Our Favorite Summer Novelties From G-SHOCK

With the last months of summer upon us, the desire to wring every experience from outdoor activities is growing more desperate. Luckily, if you bring along any one of G-SHOCK’s all-new watches on whatever adventures August has to offer, you will definitely get the most out of what’s left of the summer.

G-SHOCK’s summer novelties have all the staples G-SHOCK is known for, with the latest technology to ensure optimal usage, whether you wear it while roaming the terrain or lounging beachside.

Not only are these three featured colorways particularly striking, but their typical G-SHOCK robustness will make whatever outdoor adventure these new models accompany you on all the more enjoyable.

Your Bud in the Mud

For those who want to test the brand’s rugged nature, the Mudmaster GGB100-8A was made for you. Specially designed for those working and exploring extreme terrain, the watch’s sleek monochromatic and minimalist gray-on-black colorway contrasts the striking features of its ana-digi dial.
 

The solid nature of this new Bluetooth Quad Sensor Mudmaster, complemented with an almost indestructible 55.4mm Carbon Core Guard case and resin bezel, makes it ideal for any summer excursion for many seasons to come. Plus, with a price tag of only $380, adding it to your collection won’t break the bank.
 

Orange is the New Black

Designed with the same sturdy toughness that has made the brand a go-to for rugged-outdoor types, the new orange GA2200M-4A also has a Carbon Core Guard case, making it a fierce opponent for whatever comes its way. Though as durable as ever, one of the most impressive aesthetic features is the slimmed-down 12.8mm case thickness, so it will never get in the way of an expedition.

Don’t Yield for this Yellow

Not to be outdone by its counterparts, the latest addition in the G-SHOCK MOVE lineup is the GBD200-9. Complete with a step counter and companion app, this 49.4mm x 45.9mm yellowish-green and black watch allows for a bit of style in whatever activity you choose.
 

Like the GA2200M-4A discussed above, this model is also slimmer than prior MOVE models (only 15mm thick), making it ideal for those spur-of-the-moment day excursions that make summer so memorable. One can track distance one of two ways when wearing this watch: The first is via GPS, and the second is through the Auto Lap feature that calculates everything from lap time to calories burned.

Final Thoughts

With the striking new colorways and unbeatable features of G-SHOCK’s summer novelties, the only thing limiting your world of adventure is your own imagination.
 

The definition of a watch one can put on without any worry; these new models truly can go anywhere and do anything. Moreover, without the limitations of hefty price points or fear of damage, the only thing left to do is start exploring.
