This new model has a black ion-plated (IP) case, bezel, and band, with a red accent colour. Also included with this model is a replacement red resin band with a double slide lever mechanism designed to enable easy replacement using the special tool.

The Bluetooth® communication function makes it possible to connect with a smartphone running the G-SHOCK Connected app and obtain accurate time information from an Internet-based time server for automatic time adjustment as you move between time zones.
