Hand assembled in the Yamagata factory in Japan, the newest addition to the MT-G watch family showcases self-adjusting GPS Atomic Solar Hybrid technology to capture time calibration data using a complimentary system for receiving GPS signals and standard terrestrial radio wave signals. All this is powered by a Tough Solar module which is protected by a core guard structure featuring metal and fine resin for its components. Additional G-SHOCK tools have been adopted including a Smart Access Crown and a Triple G Resist.

The MTGG1000AR-1A Aged IP Rose Gold is crafted with antiglare sapphire glass and a Panel Composite Band made of solid SS/Fine Resin. The timepiece has a beautiful Aged IP Rose Gold hue that creates a vintage, yet perfectly finished look. 

The timepiece has a number of key features showcasing its versatility- Airplane Mode, World Time (27TZ, 40 Cities+UTC), LED (Super Illuminator), Daily Alarm, Full Auto Calendar, Stopwatch 924Hr), Countdown Timer (24Hr), Day/Date Display and a case size of 56.0mm.

The MTGG1000AR-1A - Aged IP Rose Gold will be available beginning August 2016 retailing for $1,900 USD. The model will be sold at key jewelers and the G-SHOCK NYC Soho store.

About G-SHOCK
CASIO's shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch is synonymous with toughness, born from the developer Mr. Ibe's dream of 'creating a watch that never breaks'. Over 200 handmade samples were created and tested to destruction until finally in 1983 the first, now iconic G-SHOCK hit the streets of Japan and began to establish itself as 'the toughest watch of all time'. Each watch encompasses the 7 elements; electric shock resistance, gravity resistance, low temperature resistance, vibration resistance, water resistance, shock resistance and toughness. The watch is packed with Casio innovations and technologies to prevent it from suffering direct shock; this includes internal components protected with urethane and suspended timekeeping modules inside the watch structure. Since its launch, G-SHOCK has continued to evolve, continuing to support on Mr. Ibe's mantra "never, never give up".
