All-New Denim Fashion G-Shocks.

 

Last week, we covered the GA-110DC series, which dressed up the ever popular GA-110s in denim colours, as well as their matching counterparts, the BA-110DCs. These models proved to be so successful, that Casio has expanded their range to include three new models. The GA-700DE-2A, the GA-100DE-2A and the DW-5600DE-2. A combination of old and new watch models, if you’re unfamiliar, let me give you a brief rundown why you should be excited!

GA-700DE-2A

First up, the GA-700DE-2A. Based on Casio’s GA-700 model, this limited edition watch is an analogue/digital combo. The hands, while thin enough to not get in the way, can be shifted away from the digital screen, in order to see the time clearer.

 

The band is a dark blue resin, with a denim pattern. The digital display is also dark blue to match it, but not too dark that you won’t be able to see the time.

 

As with the original GA-700, this model comes packed with features for athletes and lovers of urban sports. It has a button to take you straight to the stopwatch without having to search through the different modes, and there’s a target time alarm, which lets you run against the clock, and improve your speed.

GA-100DE-2A

Moving on, it’s time to discuss the GA-100DE-2A. Based on the original GA-100 series, the GA100DE has a light blue resin band that’s patterned to look like the denim shirt/jeans/jacket that you wear. Basically it’s kitted out to match any denim style. Because the band is actually resin, it doesn’t scratch or rip as easily as a normal band.

 

Keeping the features, which made the GA-100 so popular to begin with, this analogue/digital combo watch has not just 200m water resistance and shock resistance (withstanding pretty much all accidental damage), but it’s also resistant to magnetic waves.

 

Athletes, you might find this next bit interesting. The GA-100DE-2A also includes a 1/1000-sec stopwatch. Not only is this the most accurate stopwatch on the market, but it also includes a speed indicator, which tells you how fast you’re running laps.

DW-5600DE-2

Finally, we have the DW-5600DE-2. This really takes us back because it’s based on one of Casio’s first ever G-Shock watches, the DW-5600. Now, as you can see from the picture, it’s the only one of the three new models that’s digital only. That’s a definite advantage for some because the numbers are a lot bigger and have more room. Not only that, but the backlight lights up the entire screen, instead of just the analogue part (a common complaint about analogue/digital combo watches).

 

As with the other watches in this series, the DW has a light blue display to complement the denim styled resin band.

 

So, there you have it. The All New Denim Series is coming soon to BuyWatchesOnline. If you’re interested, here’s a link to the denim series’ first appearance in our store.
