Casio och G-Shock har under åratal skapat klockor med örat mot gatan. Denna gång hämtas inspiration från graffiti och företaget skriver:

“Introducing a new style that takes the G-SHOCK form — an iconic element of street culture across the ages — and adds graffiti art to the mix.”

Mer information om fem modellerna deras respektive specifikationer finns nedan eller via gshock.casio.com

DW-5000SS

“Graffiti lettering with bubble outlines delivered with multi-angle pattern printing in black and silver. Translucent grey resin is used as the base. In addition, intricate patterning is applied with a newly developed stamping process to create a brick pattern of protrusions and indents to evoke a street atmosphere.”

GA-110SS

“A graffiti-style design with combinations of decorative lettering delivered with multi-angle pattern printing in purple, black, and white. The striking design and street-savvy colour scheme brings together the G-SHOCK image of toughness with the street culture worldview. Garal colour moulding is employed for the case and band, combining different colours of resin to create marbled patterns over base tones of white, for a textural finish evocative of a wall surface.”

GX-56SS

“A bold design that takes full advantage of the larger watch size with its voluminous feel to present graffiti with plentiful splashes of colour. Elaborate lettering combinations and visually appealing colour gradations from saxe blue to green are created using multi-angle pattern printing in four colours. Garal colour moulding is employed for the case and band: Different colours and textures of resin are combined with the black resin base for a unique finish with a pebbled look evoking a stone surface.”

GM-5600SS

“The look and feel of spray painting used in graffiti reproduced with different techniques on each component. A repeated process of masking and colourful IP application create an innovative design with a pattern of overlapping splashes of blue and gold, while highlighting the silver base colour of the metal bezel. A matching pattern is printed on the dial as well. For the resin band, metallic paint and inkjet printing is applied. The whole watch design evokes the look of streetside “shutter art” with its metallic texture and the way it captures the look and feel of spray paint.”

GM-2100SS

“A striking graffiti-style design covers the bezel, dial, and band. A repeated process of masking and incremental application of blue and black IP is added to the grey base colour of the metal bezel. The dial features colourful ink with a translucent look to showcase the vapour deposition and printing, and the hour and minute hands are treated with blue luminescent paint. The band is made from resin with fluorescent paint and finished with multi-angle pattern printing in blue, black, and white plus lime green screen printing, to give the watch a look of radiant gloss.”
