Introducing the G-SHOCK 40th Anniversary Flare Red — an eruption of fiery color in two limited-edition timepieces celebrating the 40th anniversary of the 1983 G-SHOCK debut. Inspired by the intense power of the solar flare, the MTG-B3000 and GWG-2000 both radiate G-SHOCK brand black and red, delivering the best new technologies from Casio. A multicolor carbon-insert bezel, crafted of layers of carbon and glass fiber sheets containing phosphorescent particles, evokes the massive explosive power of the sun’s surface, yielding a timepiece that radiates with glow-in-the-dark beauty. Individually and uniquely patterned bezel components — no two alike — result in truly one-of-a-kind lightweight watches of rugged strength. Take it even higher with the GWG-2000 bezel components, made of forged carbon fiber with phosphorescent particles to match the bezel with solar flare patterns that glow in the dark. Both models feature a solar flare pattern printed on the dial, as well as an Eric Haze-designed logo commemorating the 40th anniversary of G-SHOCK engraved on the case back and four stars for 40 engraved on the band loop. These meticulously beautiful, uniquely impactful timepieces are just right for kicking off the G-SHOCK 40th anniversary celebration.
