G-SHOCK’s new GD010 is as tough and long-lasting as it is bold and modern.
The consensus among G-SHOCK fans is clear: The new GD010 is one of the iconic Japanese brand’s most exciting releases of the year. That’s because it offers the legibility and ease of operation fans have clamored for while still keeping sustainability, modern aesthetics, an approachable price and G-SHOCK’s legendary toughness top of mind.
As a result, the model is quickly carving out a new niche among the company’s expansive line of timepieces.
The digital display is clean, spacious, and easy to read, similar to another iconic G-SHOCK series, the MUDMAN GW9500, and another cult-favorite watch made by G-Shock’s parent brand, the Casio AE1500.
In an age increasingly dominated by smartwatches tracking your every move, the GD010 remains extremely simple to set up and use while still offering plenty of valuable time-tracking features.
Aesthetically, the bold and new multifaceted bezel offers an exciting, modernized look and feel that should help distinguish the G-SHOCK brand well in the decades ahead.

LOREM IPSUM
PLUS G-SHOCK’S FUNCTIONAL TOUGHNESS
True to the G-SHOCK name, the GD010 can handle all the adventures you can throw at it. It’s also water-resistant up to 200 meters and inherently shock-resistant and lightweight, weighing in at 65 grams due to its Carbon Core Guard Structure. Its integrated Super Illuminator lighting system also keeps the watch highly legible even in total darkness and offers several customization options, including auto lighting and illumination duration (aka afterglow).
Travelers will also love its ability to keep and track up to five alarms (daily or one-time), track time in up to four separate selected cities, or automatically adjust to over 31 time zones and 48 cities.
Combined with a 1/100-second stopwatch, a 24 hour countdown time accurate to within 1/10 of a second and a full auto-calendar, the GD010 can handle just about anything.
