Casio has released four new G-Shock 2100 series watches in the United States under the Luxe Black collection.
The lineup, previously launched in Japan, is now available through Casio's website.
Design and Materials
The Luxe Black watches feature a matte black aesthetic with a textured dial finish that reduces glare.
The hour and minute hands are thinner for better readability, and the hour markers have a metallic contrast via vapor deposition.
The collection includes two base resin models (GA-2100LXB) priced at $145. These use bio-based resin for the bezel and band and weigh 51 grams.
The 1A variant has silver hour markers, while the 1A9 uses gold markers.
The two metal-clad versions (GM-2100LXB) cost $260.
They replace the resin bezel with stainless steel treated with black ion plating, increasing the weight to 72 grams.
The band remains bio-based resin. Both metal models also offer silver or gold accents.
Features and Specifications
All four watches share the same internal specifications. They run on two SR726W batteries with an estimated three-year life.
There are no smart features, Bluetooth, or solar charging.
Standard functions include 200 meters of water resistance, shock resistance, a stopwatch, a 24-hour countdown timer, five daily alarms, world time for 31 time zones, and a double LED light system for the analog hands and digital display.
The Luxe Black models are available now on Casio's website.
