About this timepiece

Black and gold make a confident pairing on the G-SHOCK G-STEEL GST-B500 (ref. GST-B500BD-1A9), a metal-and-resin watch we are proud to offer to anyone who wants toughness with a sophisticated edge. Its stainless steel bezel and band are black ion plated, and gold accents across the black face lift the look toward dressier territory. The case measures 46.6 × 48.9 × 12.8 mm, and the steel band fastens with a one-touch three-fold clasp.

Tough Solar charging runs it on light, with about seven months of operation after a charge in normal use without light, or up to 18 months when stored in total darkness with power saving on. The Carbon Core Guard structure gives it shock resistance, and it is water resistant to 200 meters, with mineral glass over the face. Linked by Bluetooth to the CASIO WATCHES app, it sets its own time and adds about 300 world time cities, Time & Place, reminders and a phone finder, alongside world time in 38 time zones, a 1/100-second stopwatch, a 60-minute timer and five daily alarms.

Features

  • Tough Solar power – about 7 months on a charge in normal use, or 18 months in darkness with power saving on.

Timepiece History

G-SHOCK began with a developer's belief that a watch could be built not to break when dropped, and Project Team Tough was formed in 1981 to make it, working from Kikuo Ibe's concept. Over about two years the team built more than 200 prototypes around the "Triple 10" concept: 10-bar water resistance, surviving a 10-meter drop, and a 10-year battery. The DW-5000C that came out of that work debuted in 1983 with a hollow case that supports the core module at certain points, and G-SHOCK has kept building on that toughness idea ever since.

G-STEEL is G-SHOCK's metal-and-resin line, built around layered construction. Casio's timeline lists the GST-B100, made with the Layer Guard Structure, under 2017 as a tough Bluetooth-enabled chronograph. The GST-B500 streamlines the metal band of its predecessor, the GST-B400, adapts design elements from the GA-2100, and extends the Carbon Core Guard lineup with a 12.8 mm profile. The GST-B500BD-1A9 dresses that design in a black-and-gold color scheme, with black ion plating on its steel bezel and band.
