>Today, we’re bringing you news of yet another entry into the MT-G line of G-Shocks, their selection of premium metallic watches with carbon fiber reinforced cases. Let’s take a look at the new MTGB2000.
>The MT-G series is G-Shock’s play at the luxury sports watch market, and watches under this umbrella maintain the robust quality we all expect from a G-Shock but incorporate premium metallic finishing in a package that feels a bit more premium than the tried and true resin cases that the brand built its reputation on.
>The MTGB2000 features what G-Shock refers to as a Dual Core Guard Structure, that uses carbon fiber to reinforce a resin case. That resin case is then surrounded by a metal frame, which gives the watch the appearance of a full metal G-Shock, but keeps a lot of the lightweight qualities that have always been part of the appeal of G-Shock’s watches. G-Shock has been using carbon fiber reinforced cases for a while now, across a spectrum of price points.
>Naturally, these watches feature all the built in functionality that’s ever present on modern G-Shocks, including alarms, a chronograph, a world timer, and so on. They’re also powered by solar energy and Bluetooth enabled, allowing for adjustments to be made to the watch via a smartphone. In addition to the carbon fiber construction, the other relatively novel feature here is implementation of three dual coil motors to control the hands on the dial, a first in the MT-G series. According to G-Shock, this allows for instantaneous adjustment of the time when paired with a smartphone. As you can probably guess, these watches are not even a little bit diminutive, coming in at 55mm in diameter and an eye popping 15.9mm thick.

>The MTGB2000, in both variants, will be available in November through G-Shock retailers. The version with a blue bezel and urethane strap (MTGB2000B1A2) will sell for $950, while the variant with the metallic shell MTGB2000D1A) is priced at $1,000.
