Circuit board camouflage design
created with laser engraving.
A camouflage design incorporating patterns from the actual circuitry of the module decorates the bezel and band. Laser engraving applied both prior and subsequent to the black IP creates impressions of shading to achieve a sense of depth in the pattern. Meticulous attention to detail has gone into the watch design, with laser engraving extending to the sides of the bezel, the buckle, and more.
Super-hard titanium alloy
that combines strength & beauty
External components are made with the TranTixxii® titanium alloy developed by Nippon Steel Corporation. While retaining titanium’s lightweight and rust-resistant properties, it delivers roughly twice the surface hardness of conventional titanium. Although it has typically been difficult to apply mirror finishes to titanium, this material makes it possible to produce polished surfaces with a high degree of smoothness, down to the most challenging spots in the watch’s complex form.

Dial design decorated with a circuit board pattern..
The circuit board pattern is applied to the surface of the glass as well, displaying a passion for design down to the minor details. The widths and configuration of lines in the design are optimized to maintain the solar-receptive area necessary for solar power generation.
Like the very first G-SHOCK, the case back of the GMW-B5000TCC features a screw-lock construction that ensures a tight seal. A DLC coating is applied to the pure titanium to provide improved abrasion resistance, and a circular hairline finish enhances its textural appeal.
*Due to the screw-lock construction of the case back, the orientation of the logo and lettering on it may not match up perfectly with the dial.
Truth to origin and constant innovation: Full metal shock-resistant structure
Buffering components made of fine resin are installed between the titanium bezel and case. With its metal exterior in the original form of the very first G-SHOCK, the watch makes the most of its shock-resistant structure.
*Image shows the GMW-B5000D-1.
Solar-powered timekeeping with Bluetooth® and radio control for enhanced accuracy and reliability
Super Illuminator (high-brightness full-auto LED backlight) for maintaining watch readability in the dark.
Scratch-resistant, highly transparent sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating on the inside surface
Display aspect
The LCD’s approximately 16:10 aspect ratio approaches the angle of human vision. Adopted in pursuit of clear visibility, this ratio has been handed down from one model to another since the origin to benefit from its closeness to the Golden Ratio, which is considered to represent the most beautiful proportions in nature.
