The latest Casio G5600SFJ-9, a collaboration with Surfrider Foundation Japan, has officially made its debut in the US, available for $150. This eye-catching timepiece is part of Casio’s “Love the Sea and the Earth” initiative, building upon the iconic G-5600UE solar-powered platform.
Featuring a vivid sunrise-yellow case and strap crafted from mixed-color bio-based resin, each watch boasts a unique marbled texture, making every unit distinct. This eco-friendly material choice not only enhances the watch’s aesthetic appeal but also aligns with the collaboration’s environmentally conscious theme.
The digital watch prominently displays the Surfrider Foundation Japan logo on both the face and case back, with the #oceanfriendlylifestyle hashtag on the band keeper. Even the packaging is thoughtfully designed, adorned with coastal artwork and accompanied by a branded cloth pouch.
Beyond its striking appearance, the G5600SFJ-9 is packed with features including Casio’s renowned Tough Solar system, 200-meter water resistance, a 1/100-second stopwatch, countdown timer, multiple alarms, world time function, an auto calendar, and an LED backlight with customizable illumination duration. Despite its robust capabilities, the watch maintains a compact and lightweight profile, measuring 46.7 × 43.2 × 12.7 mm and weighing just 47 grams.
This vibrant model stands out for its unique resin finish and collaborative detailing, making it a must-have for collectors and environmentally conscious consumers alike. Available for purchase on Casio’s official US site, it’s being offered in limited quantities, so grab it while supplies last.
