Michael SatterfieldThe new Casio G-SHOCK MR-G MRGG2000RJ-2A boasts a functional Dura Soft Fluoro-Rubber band in an all-new, deep violet color, which provides both durability and comfort. The watch also features a custom back inscription of the Japanese characters for “Jyuryokumaru” (meaning “gravity”), which are hand engraved by renowned swordsmith Teruhira Kamiyama.
The latest model showcases the MR-G line’s signature features to give it a tough yet sleek design that can elevate any winter look. It has an all-titanium case, back cover, and clasp, which have undergone a deep-hardening treatment to make it five times harder than regular titanium. It also has a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with an inner coating, which enhances its overall clarity and readability.
The MRGG2000RJ-2A bezel is created from Murasaki-gane metal and Cobarion, premium materials that make the bezel two or three times stronger than stainless steel. The deep violet Arc Ion Plating (AIP) also gives the metal a mirror-like, purple finish to complete its sleek style.
In addition, the new watch offers G-SHOCK’s three-way time sync for accurate timekeeping. This is made possible through Bluetooth® connectivity, GPS satellite signal reception, and Multi-Band 6 technology, which are signature technical capabilities within G-SHOCK’s premium models. The watch also features Tough Solar technology that provides self-charging capabilities.
