This high quality timepiece from G-SHOCK is made from exceptionally lightweight titanium that has been treated with a TiC (titanium carbide) coating, as well as brown and dark grey IP (ion plating) to give it an aesthetic unlike any other. In a truly unique fashion, the brown and grey coatings are applied in a geometric camouflage arrangement, which delivers a timepiece with an aggressive, graphic look like no other. Furthering the technical style, words are laser etched throughout the case and bracelet.

The G-SHOCK GMW-B5000TVB1 Watch from the Worn & Wound Store ($1700) takes its design cues from the iconic square G-SHOCK, meaning the GMW-B5000TVB1 is a familiar shape and size for fans of the brand. At 43.2mm wide, 49.3mm wide, and 13mm thick, the watch wears really well on the wrist courtesy of its square dimensions. The whole case and bracelet are crafted from titanium, with the entire watch weighing in at just 104 grams. Up top, a sapphire crystal helps to keep the LCD screen underneath protected and boasts a glare-resistant coating for enhanced legibility. Just one look at the watch, and you’ll see the design inspirations borrowed from the world of sci-fi.

Within the titanium case of the GMW-B5000TVB1 from G-SHOCK there’s a solar-powered, Bluetooth-enabled module keeping time. The 3459 module is also capable of syncing time over radio waves to the atomic clock. By default, the display shows the time, day and date. With a press of the mode button, you can access world time mode, an alarm, stopwatch, and countdown timer — all very helpful in day to day needs. With a little help from the G-SHOCK app on your phone, the watch can automatically adjust itself so the timing is always spot-on accurate.
