G-SHOCK 40TH ANNIVERSARY MODEL Adventurer’s Stone
Available Exclusively Online from 10 Feb 2023.
Sparkling mineral-inspired watches in shapes
and colours to thrill the adventurer’s heart
The G-SHOCK spirit of supporting and guiding all who take on challenges is now expressed in the motif of minerals,
featuring stones that have been used as guideposts for adventurers since the Middle Ages.
The metal-covered base model is crafted using forging and processing technologies like IP finishing,
gaining a rough stony texture and multicolour sparkle.
These special watches are brimming with the spirit of adventure
— perfect for the G-SHOCK’s anniversary.
Three minerals with adventure energy
Stones whose light-refracting properties were used to determine the position of the sun have served as both guideposts and protective charms for adventurers on the high seas. Sunstone, calcite, and cordierite, popular as energetic minerals, have symbolic meanings that give adventurers courage.
Sunstone：Bringing about victory
Calcite：Leading onward to success
Cordierite：Showing the way
Special design features to celebrate the 40th anniversary of G-SHOCK
An anniversary logo is engraved on the case back, while the band loop is laser-engraved with four stars and the words “SINCE 1983.” Made with recycled materials, the specially designed eco-friendly packaging is shaped like the G in G-SHOCK.
GM-5640GEM × Sunstone
Sunstone’s multicolour shine, which changes depending on the viewing angle, is replicated in the forged, rainbow-colour bezel. The translucent grey band brings out the texture of the metal.
Bezel – Forging + 2-colour IP (rainbow + black)
Band – Translucent grey
Dial – Black printed
GM-2140GEM × Cordierite
The beautiful blue face of cordierite is expressed in the forged and IP-finished bezel and a mixed-colour moulded resin band. The polarised vapour deposition on the face gives off a different shine depending on the viewing angle.
Bezel – Forging + IP (blue)
Band – Garal colour moulding (blue + black)
Dial – Polarised blue vapour deposition
GM-114GEM × Calcite
The metal bezel is forged and ion plated with gold and black to represent calcite’s base ore. Hot-stamping gives the band its uneven texture.
Bezel – Forging + 2-colour IP (gold + black)
Band – Black + hot-stamping
Dial – Gold vapour deposition
GM-S5640GEM × Calcite
Laser engraving is layered with rainbow IP on the metal bezel to recreate calcite’s crystalline pattern and its gorgeous refracted-light glow. The dial and band are decorated with the same pattern.
Bezel – Laser engraved + IP (rainbow)
Band – Translucent white + hot-stamping
Dial – Rainbow printed
GM-S2140GEM × Calcite
The clear yellow of some calcite is replicated in the forged form and gold IP of the metal bezel, while vapour deposition gives the dial a similar colour. The white band complements the gold-coloured face.
Bezel – Forging + IP (gold)
Band – White
Dial – Gold vapour deposition
GM-S114GEM × Calcite
The metal bezel with a forged form evokes the mineral’s raw texture, finished with layered purple and grey IP. Hot-stamping gives the band its uneven texture, while purple vapour deposition gives the dial’s parts a rich lustre.
Bezel – Forging + 2-colour IP (purple + grey)
Band – Black + hot-stamping
Dial – Purple vapour deposition
