Casio G-Shock GA-700-1B

Product Overview

The GA-700 series represents the iconic face of G-SHOCK toughness, featuring an advanced and edgy silhouette that commands attention. The defining characteristic of this model is the prominent front button at the 6 o'clock position, which provides instant access to high-brightness illumination and symbolizes the watch's rugged engineering.

Readability is taken to a new level with bold, multi-dimensional hour and minute hands. Created using proprietary resin molding technology, these hands appear as if they were carved out of solid metal. This synergy of a 3D face design, raised indices, and a deep dial ring expresses a toughness of spirit that remains true to the brand's core concept. Whether for casual street style or high-intensity activity, the GA-700 combines strength with unmatched timekeeping convenience.

Edgy Styling and High Usability

The Synergy of Strength

The GA-700 is designed for those who value both form and function. The architectural layout of the dial creates high contrast, making it easy to read at a glance. The use of proprietary molding for the hands ensures they are thick and powerful, reflecting the "absolute toughness" that G-SHOCK is known for.

Convenience in the Dark

When visibility is low, the high-brightness white LED (Super Illuminator) floods the dial with light. Combined with the "Hand Shift" function, you can ensure that the analog hands never block your view of the digital display when checking your stopwatch data or world time settings.
