In the  newly developed  structure, the bezel and the center case are connected  at the top and  bottom, while an internal protector made of resilient  resin temporarily  deforms to absorb shocks, achieving a timepiece with a  full-metal  exterior that meets G-SHOCK shock-resistance standards. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe side  view of intricately shaped, interlocking metal  components, front screws  that secure the bezel and center case, and  other details come together  to achieve an exterior look unlike any other  G-SHOCK. While the front  view, with the angular form of the original  G-SHOCK, remains unchanged,  this is a whole new style of full-metal  G-SHOCK. To develop this new  design, artificial intelligence was  utilized for in-depth analysis and  simulations based on years of  shock-resistance data gathered from  G-SHOCK testing, as well as for  optimizing 3D modelling of individual  components. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe GMW-BZ5000 features the same screw-lock case back  as the very  first G-SHOCK and employs the three-pronged lug band  connection whose  strength was proven in the GMW-B5000. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMetal processing technologies deliver intricately molded shapes\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe  exterior design of the first-ever G-SHOCK is faithfully  reproduced in  fine detail, from the combination of flat and curved  surfaces to  differences in height, grooves, depressions, and  protrusions, even to  the dimpled texture of the original band. The  introduction of front  screws allows the bezel dimples to be constructed  as separate  components, which also serve to connect the exterior parts. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe  new bezel and center case design creates a unified overall  form with  intricate shapes, like lug holes and side notches, that  interlock. The  complexity of these components, many of which match with  intricate  counterparts, requires a high degree of precision. They  require a great  deal of time and effort in the manufacturing process,  with forging,  cutting, and polishing repeated dozens of times. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAdditionally,  each individual component is treated with separate  hairline and mirror  finishes to highlight the metal watch’s textural  sophistication. The  result is a commanding full-metal presence that  conveys both strength  and beauty. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMIP LCD breaks new ground in digital expression\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe  digital display employs a high-precision, high-contrast MIP  LCD with a  wide viewing angle. This enables more detailed rendering than   conventional LCD displays, delivering outstanding readability even in   bright outdoor spaces and direct sunlight. The newly developed MIP can   be powered entirely by solar. The high-definition full-dot display, with   memory embedded in each pixel, allows the user to switch between four   TIME MODE displays with the touch of a button, and, via the app, to   change the main display font from STANDARD to CLASSIC for a traditional   7-segment look. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eType A: Dual time display \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eType B: Date + day \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eType C: Year + date + day \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eType D: Triple time display \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwo-tone finish showcasing the new exterior structure\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe  new full-metal exterior is treated to a two-tone finish that   highlights the precision interlocking of the bezel and center case. The   two tones give the front and sides each a distinct appearance for an   innovative new look. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvailable in three colors: silver, black,  and gold. The black and  gold models are ion plated for excellent  abrasion resistance. The  beauty of a shimmering full-metal look, and  its strength and hard  texture, pair equally well with formal fashions  and casual styles. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eManufactured  at Yamagata Casio, the plant that produced the  first-ever G-SHOCK,  this “Made in Japan” timepiece carries on the legacy  of the original  G-SHOCK. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSolar-powered radio control with Bluetooth®\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSmartphone  Link and radio-wave time calibration deliver  automatically adjusted  precision timekeeping.
