While the GWS5600U-1 maintains the essential style of the original G-SHOCK, this new model demonstrates a masterful mixing of material that sets it apart from the pack despite its familiar looks. Developed in collaboration with Mizuno Technics, carbon fiber has been inserted into many of the resin and metal elements, boosting the overall tensile durability. This unique technique has been utilized in the black textured band, around the spring bar, and the metal ring and its surroundings. For other metallic elements such as the back cover, side buttons, and latch, titanium has been used, chosen for its lightweight feel and rugged resistance. |
