Casio’s new G-Shock GMW-B5000CS gets the laser look

Beaming with pride

G-Shock watches have never been shy on your wrist, but the latest addition to the series is particularly eye-catching. You know those laser rooms that Tom Cruise has had to negotiate in at least five of his films? Imagine that, but on a watch, and you have the G-Shock GMW-B5000CS. The full metal exterior is consistent with the classic G-Shock design, with the silver lines that complete its ‘near-future’ design forged by applying black ion plating finish to the bezel, band and buckle surface, while bringing out an underlying colour scheme using a laser to carve out the latticed pattern. LASERS. Handily, the latest G-Shock also tells the time, which autocorrects itself four times a day when connected to your phone, and there’s a high-luminosity full auto LED backlight. Casio’s G-Shock GMW-B5000CS launches in May 2020 and will cost £699.

About

I'm fascinated by all things tech, but if you were going to leave me on a desert island, I'd probably ask for my Nintendo Switch, a drone, and a pair of noise-cancelling cans to block out the relentless seagull racket. When I'm not on Stuff duty you'll probably find me subscribing to too many podcasts, playing too many video games, or telling anyone who will listen that Spurs are going to win a trophy this season.
