Casio’s latest metal-bezel G-Shock has landed in the US. The GST-B1000 series brings a rugged yet refined look to the brand’s analog lineup, pairing stainless steel style with modern connectivity and solar power. After rolling out across parts of Europe, including the UK and Germany, the watch is now available stateside in three colorways.
Shoppers can choose from the GSTB1000D-1A (black), GSTB1000D-2A (blue), and GSTB1000D-3A (green), each priced at $440. You’ll find them through the brand’s online storefront and at select physical locations.
Design and durability are front and center. The GST-B1000 features a silver-tone stainless steel case with a sleek bezel and a matching metal bracelet. The case measures 46.9 x 44.2 x 11.6 mm (about 1.8 x 1.7 x 0.5 inches), delivering presence without excessive bulk. Texture plays a big role in the overall look, from the brick-patterned dial to the mix of hairline and mirror-polished finishes. Under the skin, Casio’s Carbon Core Guard structure boosts shock resistance, staying true to the G-Shock reputation for toughness.
Smart features are handled via Bluetooth. Pair the watch with the Casio Watches app to unlock convenient extras like automatic time adjustment and a phone finder. Timekeeping is analog with three hands and accuracy rated to within ±15 seconds per month. Everyday tools include a stopwatch, a countdown timer, and a daily alarm, making the watch as practical as it is stylish. Power is managed by Tough Solar, helping keep the watch running for extended periods with exposure to light.
