The titanium MRG-B2100B-1A watch takes inspiration from kigumi—the ancient Japanese art of interconnected wooden construction without the use of nails—by utilizing this design inspiration for more than just style. True to the ancient art, form meets function: Casio designed this titanium watch with 27 separate components in the bezel alone, inserting buffering materials between the components as part of the tough Multi-Guard Structure. The hour indices are formed by two watch face components, adding further sophistication to honor the ancient Japanese art. Elegance and sophistication are the hallmarks of the mirror-finish black sheen and the kigumi-inspired latticework design of the face and construction of the bezel and indices. That elegance and sophistication are complemented by legendary G-SHOCK toughness with the boost of titanium metals, including the titanium alloy Ti64, an alloy used in the aerospace industry and for biomedical applications.
Scratch resistance is a core component of Casio’s titanium watches. Diamond-like carbon coating enshrouds the titanium, and the sapphire crystal glass ensures the MRG-B2100B-1A titanium watch is scratch resistant to the highest levels of modern technology and design. The coatings are hand finished by master artisans, giving an artful and precise completion to a titanium watch inspired by an ancient Japanese art of craftsmanship and beauty.
The design and style may be influenced by an ancient artform, but the technology is wholly modern. The G-SHOCK MRG-B2100B-1A titanium watch is calibrated daily by a radio signal or through Bluetooth® connectivity, ensuring accurate timekeeping. Add in Tough Solar power charging and both magnetic resistance and 200m water resistance (wr 20 bar), and this titanium G-SHOCK watch is as reliable as a sunrise.
