Casio Drops Five Affordable G-SHOCK Watches With A Military-Inspired Tactical Look

After spending serious time recently with a feature-packed Mudmaster, I’ll admit it’s kind of refreshing to see Casio pulling things in the opposite direction. The brand has just announced the Black and Electro Green Collection, a five-model release spanning the GD010, GA700, GA100, GAB2100, and GAB010. Each watch shares the same visual treatment: a matte black case, band, and dial paired with vivid green accents and green-tinted LCD touches. Pricing runs from $110 for the GA700BEG-1A and GD010BEG-1 up to $180 for the GAB010BEG-1A, with everything available now through G-SHOCK.
