The bezel and band are seamlessly molded into a single exterior piece, providing robust protection for the carbon fiber-reinforced resin case. The band construction, designed for maximum flex, delivers an even more comfortable fit on the wrist. Additionally, the adhesive glass attachment allows for a more compact lug design, enhancing the sharp silhouette from the bezel to the band.
The new band design was developed in collaboration with OUTSENSE Inc., a leader in the field of “origami engineering.” Their insights, gleaned from the art of paper-folding, deliver a band with depth and dimension, and an exceptionally comfortable fit. Precisely analyzed mountain and valley fold angles in the band’s base sections pull outward to the left and right, ensuring the case fits snugly against the wrist on the underside of the band’s wave-shaped base.
Key resin components used in the bezel and band are also made of bio-based resin, a material expected to help reduce environmental impact.
Sync with your smartphone via Bluetooth® for precision timekeeping, simple notification (sound alert), step counts, and more. Offering a 2-year battery, this watch is ready to help you with everything from managing daily health to boosting your running endurance — all with a fashionable sporty look.

What to do with Broken Watches?
G Shock Battery Replacement
G Shock battery life ranges from two to six years, depending on how often you use the alarm or the backlight. Frequent use of either feature drains the battery pretty fast hence, the need for replacement. The life of the replacement battery, on the other hand, depends on how long it has been sitting on the shelf. Its shelf life is ten years in room temperature after which it goes through gradual degradation.
G Shock Strap Replacement
G Shock watches are known to last a lifetime, but the bands wear out after prolonged use. To replace them, place the watch facing downwards on a soft cloth, unhook the spring bars located at the base of each strap. Some models have the bars covered while others are exposed. Use a spring-bar removal tool to unhook and pull the band away from the watch. Repeat the process to remove the other spring bar. Replace them with the rod slots of the new band and use the spring-bar tool to fasten the bands. The procedure applies when replacing rubber straps. Metallic bands require a little tact hence, the need to engage a professional.
