Introducing the MRG-B5000, a timepiece that pays homage to the original G-SHOCK while showcasing the exceptional craftsmanship and cutting-edge materials synonymous with the MR-G flagship line.
Crafted with utmost precision, this revolutionary watch incorporates super-hard titanium alloy, Ti64, in its case and bezel components. The bezel top is made from COBARION, an alloy four times tougher than pure titanium, exuding a brilliant platinum-like gleam.
The bezel itself comprises 25 meticulously polished components, each contributing to a stunning textured effect. To ensure optimal shock absorption, the Multi-Guard Structure combines flat springs and silicone buffers, safeguarding the dedicated MR-G module with a gold-plated retainer plate for the circuit board.
In a nod to the original DW-5000C-1B, one of the first G-SHOCK models, the dial showcases a captivating brick pattern and circular lines in a striking gold hue. Meanwhile, the case is elegantly coated in black DLC for a sleek finish. Enhancing comfort, the watch features a Dura Soft band made of fluoro rubber, with titanium components providing added strength to the connection between the band and the case. The band’s top boasts textured SHOCK RESIST symbols, while the underside mirrors the dial’s brick pattern.
This remarkable timepiece not only celebrates the allure of metal but also delivers exceptional functionality. It offers radio-controlled calibration and can be paired with smartphones via Bluetooth®, ensuring seamless integration with modern technology.
