What we know about the upcoming G-Shock GMC-B2100ZE-1A limited edition

You may have seen the leaked images of the upcoming G-Shock GMC-B2100ZE-1A, which will be the third GMC-B2100 model featuring a full metal structure and full analog display. Or maybe you haven’t seen it yet but have your eye on the upcoming GMC-B2100AD-2A or GMC-B2100D-1A, in which case you should be aware of it before you make a decision on the other two. Here is what we know about the GMC-B2100ZE-1A so far.

• The watch is scheduled for an October 2024 release in Japan, but it’s not known if it will be released at the same time as the other GMC-B2100 models (on October 18) or later.
• The watch has a stainless steel bezel and band with a black ion-plating. No titanium or DLC, but at least that means the price won’t be a lot more than the other two GMC-B2100 models, with an expected price of $930 for the GMCB2100ZE1A in the U.S.
• Unlike the G-Shock GMWB5000SS-2 from the previous Casio Watch 50th Anniversary series which was sold only at Casio.com and the G-Shock Soho Store (NYC) in the U.S., the GMCB2100ZE1A is expected to be sold by other authorized dealers in the U.S.
• The fifth band link from the watch on the upper band has a gold ion plating to symbolize the 50th Anniversary.
