Casio is rounding out its Bold Camo G-Shock lineup in the US this week with two new models. After bringing the first four watches of the Japan-originated collection stateside last month, the company has just released the final two pieces: the GA-700CF-1A and the DW-6900CF-1.
Design Details
Both models feature standard matte black resin bands and bezels, which are paired with camouflage-patterned dials. The visual update comes from the gold-colored vapor deposition applied to the watch faces. It is a specific streetwear-oriented look, offering a bit more contrast than standard tactical G-Shocks without changing the underlying hardware.
The GA-700CF-1A is the larger of the two, priced at $145. It is an analog-digital hybrid built around the chunky GA-700 case, measuring 57.5 x 53.4 x 18.5 mm and weighing 75 grams. On this model, the gold accents are applied to the physical hands and the raised hour markers.
It includes a practical hand-shift feature that moves the analog hands out of the way so you can clearly read the digital displays underneath. Other standard features include world time across 31 zones, a 1/100-second stopwatch, a 60-minute countdown timer, and five daily alarms.
If you prefer a purely digital display, the $120 DW-6900CF-1 applies the same black, camo, and gold colorway to the classic 6900 case. It is slightly smaller at 53.2 x 50 x 18.7 mm and weighs 67 grams.
The gold detailing here frames the digital readouts on the dial. It comes with standard digital G-Shock features, including a 24-hour countdown timer, a multi-function alarm, and a flash alert system that triggers the LED backlight to blink in sync with your alarms and hourly timers.
As expected from the G-Shock line, both watches share the exact same baseline durability specs. They feature mineral glass, shock-resistant resin construction, and 200 meters of water resistance. Both run on a standard CR2016 battery, which Casio says should last about five years before needing a replacement.
Both the GA-700CF-1A and DW-6900CF-1 are available to purchase now.
In related news, Casio has recently launched the Baby-G BG169CMB-8 in the US with a Y2K-inspired camouflage design, alongside five new Edifice EFK-200 automatic watches.
