G-SHOCK 40th Anniversary Flare Red Collection: Celebrating Four Decades of Excellence
The G-SHOCK 40th Anniversary Flare Red Collection celebrates an incredible milestone in the brand’s history, honoring 40 years since the debut of the original G-SHOCK in 1983. This special edition series introduces two striking timepieces — the MTG-ED2310021 and GWG-2000 — that embody the enduring spirit of toughness, innovation, and design excellence that G-SHOCK has stood for since its inception.
Design Inspired by the Power of the Solar Flare
The Flare Red Collection draws its inspiration from the raw, explosive energy of solar flares, translating that immense power into two bold, dynamic designs. Both models are awash in the G-SHOCK signature palette of black and fiery red, infused with innovative materials and state-of-the-art technology to deliver timepieces that are as rugged as they are visually stunning.
Multicolor Carbon-Insert Bezel
The highlight of the collection is the multicolor carbon-insert bezel, crafted from layers of carbon and glass fiber sheets. These sheets incorporate phosphorescent particles, creating a unique texture and glow-in-the-dark effect that symbolizes the radiant energy of the sun’s surface. The result is a bezel with a distinctive glow that sets it apart from any other timepiece on the market.
Each bezel component features an individually unique pattern, ensuring that no two watches are exactly alike. This one-of-a-kind design element enhances the exclusivity of the Flare Red Collection while maintaining lightweight durability and strength.
Forged Carbon Bezel Components on GWG-2000
The GWG-2000 takes the design a step further with forged carbon fiber bezel components. These bezels are infused with phosphorescent particles that create mesmerizing solar flare patterns, further enhancing the watch’s glow-in-the-dark appeal. The forged carbon construction also ensures maximum strength and durability, making the GWG-2000 a true workhorse with a touch of artistry.
