The MTG-B1000XB-1A keeps accurate time anywhere in the world using the Connected Engine module, which connects to a time server via a paired smartphone or using radio wave time-calibration signals. The watch connects to the G-SHOCK Connected smartphone app to enable the user to easily set the world time and alarms from the app. The model also comes with premium features such as G-SHOCK’s Multi-Band 6 Atomic Timekeeping Technology, which provides accurate timekeeping virtually anywhere via radio signals from up to six different transmitters worldwide. The MTGB1000-1A also features a sapphire crystal to protect against scratching, AIP® (arc ion platting) titanium coating applied to the surface and tough solar technology. The watch also comes equipped with standard G-SHOCK technology of 200M water resistance and shock resistance, in addition to dual dial world time (up to 300 cities selectable within the app), a full auto Super Illuminator LED light, stopwatch and countdown timer, daily alarm, and full auto calendar – all in a 51.92mm case.

Atomic Timekeeping
Shows accurate time by receiving radio signals of standard time information. JJY= Corresponds to both of Japanese standard waves JJY (40kHZ/60kHZ); WWVB= Corresponds to the USA standard wave WWVB (60kHz); MSF/DCF77= Corresponds to UK and Germany standard waves MSF/DCF77 (60kHz/77.5kHz); BPC= Corresponds to Chinese standard wave BPC (68.5kHz)

Bluetooth®
Link wirelessly to a smartphone using Bluetooth® SMART
-
Solar Power
A solar cell provides power for operation
-
Auto-Hand Location
Using an LED, the positions of the hour, minute and second hands are checked at the 55'00" of every hour to ensure correct hand positioning. If the hand time does not coincide with the counter within the IC, the movement corrects the hand position automatically
-
LED Light (Super Illuminator)
A light emitting diode is used to illuminate the face/display. Super Illuminator uses high-brightness LED for easier reading
-
World Time (R27)
Displays the current time in major cities and specific areas around the world. R: Current time in major cities around the world. Values indicate number of cities/areas
-
Beeper Alarm
Beeper tone alarm sounds at the time you set
-
Stopwatch (24HR)
Accurate measurement of elapsed time with the touch of a button. The fraction indicates the unit of measurement, while the time figure indicates the maximum time measurement
-
Timer (24H)
Counts down from a start time specified by you. The value indicates the number of timers available, while the time figure indicates the maximum starting time. “REPEAT” indicates Auto Repeat, which automatically restarts timing at the end of each countdown
-
Full Auto-Calendar
Allowances are made automatically for months of different lengths, including leap year
-
12/24-Hour Timekeeping
Times can be displayed in either 12-hour or 24-hour format
-
Battery Level Indicator
Indicator shows the current battery level
-
Triple G-Shock Resistant
Designed to withstand the shock of three forces: gravitational dropping force, centrifugal gravitational force and vibration
-
Neobrite
A luminous coating provides long-term illumination in the dark after only short exposure to light
-
Water Resistant (20 BAR)
The “BAR” value indicates the number of atmospheres to which water resistance is ensured. 20 BAR means water resistance to 20 atmospheres. Watches marked “200m” have the same water resistance as 20 BAR watches
