The GA100GGB-1A9 also has a completely golden dial with the indices inverted to black. The final watch, the GD010GB-1A9, is the most subtle of them all — due largely to its full-digital display — but it still has a golden ring around the dial and gold G-Shock lettering at the top of the case.
Originally, all four of these watches were only available in Japan. Thankfully, things didn’t stay that way, and they have now all been launched on US shores, so you can get your black-and-gold fix, too.
Glitz and glamor go hard
As eye-catching as these watches are, there’s an even more imperative element at work here: they’re still G-Shock watches. And that comes with some big expectations.
Not that it was ever in question, but these watches are just as balls-to-the-wall tough as the brand’s offerings have always been. Furthermore, they’re fully equipped with the same massive array of complications and other features brand fans have come to expect.
