MTG (MTG means METAL-TWISTED G-SHOCK. All watches incorporate new core guard structure. An inner case is installed in a box-shaped frame formed by screws that securely connect the bezel, case back and band connection pieces. A stronger structure is realized by absorbing shocks with the exterior instead of the core. Besides, MTG watches belong to PREMIUM line and have the best materials, functions and technologies.)
G-Shock MTG TOP Features *depends on the watch. Some models may miss some features
| Dual Core Guard Structure Combining Metal and Carbon | Uses original MT-G Metal Core Guard and latest reinforced Carbon Core Guard structure. A monocoque case made from carbon fiber-reinforced resin is inside a metal frame that joins the bezel and outer case, for a strong, well-sealed, lightweight construction. |
| Metal Bezel | Separate bezel and outer case construction means each can be finished in different colors, conveying the solid feel of metal while allowing for a broader range of color. |
| Carbon Monocoque Case | Rigid carbon material enhances the shock resistance and offers design freedom to mold into complex shapes. |
| Metal Cargo Frame | Strong metal frame protects the inner case from outside shock. |
| Solar-Powered Radio Control Module with Bluetooth® for Fast and Precise Time Display | Dual coil motors rapidly adjust the hour, minute, and world time hands, when correcting the time or switching modes. Bluetooth connectivity enables automatic time correction based on standard radio waves, eliminating the need to adjust the time when travelling internationally. |
