Classic Women’s Baby-G in a durable “skin” and with a sporty design. The hour markers on the dial are made in the form of Roman numbers – digital watches can also be classics. Another indisputable advantage of such marks is the good readability of the analog zone. BGA-153 are created not only as a sports watch, but also fit the business style. On the polyurethane bezel, you can see metal inserts – an analogue of “rivets” on leather clothes. The digital component of the dial is represented by three separate round windows – for hours and minutes, dyal seconds and for indicating the operation of the clock. The steel bezel received an ion coating – so as not to be scratched. Basic functionality – timer, stopwatch, alarm clock, world clock and calendar.
