The new G-SHOCK model MTGB4000 signifies a significant advancement in their premium MT-G series. This timepiece comes in two versions: MTGB4000-1A and MTGB4000B1A2. These models are the pioneering G-SHOCK watches created using a design methodology that combines human ingenuity with artificial intelligence technology. The initial designs, handcrafted by designers, were refined by AI to enhance structural strength without compromising the distinctive bold and rugged style of the MT-G series.

These watches boast a fresh, sturdy frame design that boosts their shock resistance yet maintains the collection’s iconic tough sophistication. The revamped Dual Core Guard mechanism is included, with band attachments seamlessly integrated into it. This setup enables the frame to efficiently absorb external shocks and minimize pressure on the internal casing.

The frame of the MTGB4000 is skillfully constructed from layers of carbon and glass fiber sheets, giving it a distinctive 3D shape with visible layers running along its sides. The bezel’s appearance is enhanced by precise metal finishes that add depth, featuring Sallaz polishing, hairline textures, and mirror detailing for striking contrasts. The MTGB4000B1A2 stands out with a sleek, futuristic blue-gray ion-plated (IP) coating. The caseback, crafted using metal injection molding (MIM), provides both strength and intricate design, teamed with a sapphire crystal boasting an anti-reflective coating and a multi-dimensional dial.

The MTGB4000 series continues to emphasize functionality, with its latest iterations boasting capabilities like Triple G Resist, solar power, smartphone link, and Multi-Band 6 radio control. Extra features include world time for 27 cities, a stopwatch, countdown timer, alarm, and Super Illuminator LED light for practicality. Priced at $1,250 USD and $1,350 USD, these models can be purchased through G-SHOCK or selected retailers.
