Casio America announced the special 40th Anniversary release of the G-Shock brand’s beloved MT-G series – introducing the MTGB2000YR1A.Inspired by the warm and colorful glow of the city skyline, the new MT-G Special: City Illumination model enhances the sophisticated original design concept of the MT-G series for an advanced timepiece, designed for maximum impact.

Built with an advanced Dual Core Guard structure, and a multi-colored and multi-layered carbon frame, the interlocking metal parts give the exterior a look of rugged intricacy, while the rainbow coloring combined with the slim module, delivers an elevated, lightweight look and feel on the wrist perfect for those special occasions.

The multi-color design features various CMF (color, material, & finish) techniques, including 229 sheets of layered and machined carbon and glass fiber, which form the bezel frame at the sides of the watch. The original camouflage pattern of the MT-G series, now in a nighttime city-inspired view, is rendered in rainbow IP and etching on the bezel. The new model also showcases a multi-color index and hand design by a combination of vapor deposition and inkjet printing. It’s a new, first-of-its-kind technique for expressing colorfulness and metal-like texture in the same design.

The MTGB2000YR1A model also includes advanced technical capabilities such as solar-powered timekeeping with Bluetooth control for enhanced accuracy and reliability, as well as a Super Illuminator (high-brightness full auto LED light) for maintaining watch readability in the dark. With only 600 limited-edition pieces released, the MT-G Special: City Illumination model also touts special, eco-friendly packaging.
