Born to be Tough and Cool: G-SHOCK unveils latest summer collaborations

Summer is here, and G-SHOCK has a double dose of excitement for every timepiece lover and K-Pop fan!

They are set to release a summer collection featuring two collaborations: one with its brand ambassadors, K-Pop girl group ITZY, and another with Team Land Cruiser Toyota Auto Body (TLC). 

This summer, choose between the youthful aesthetic of the ITZY collection, or embrace a bolder and more adventurous statement with the desert-inspired theme of TLC. 

G-SHOCK x ITZY

Based on the GMA-P2100 in an even more compact form, expressing ITZY’s cool image with a subtle monochrome palette.

ITZY has garnered immense support from a worldwide fan community, notably resonating with teenage girls and women in their twenties across Asian nations. This bond was further solidified in February 2023 when Casio appointed the group as brand ambassadors for G-SHOCK, recognizing the seamless alignment between ITZY's dynamic music and performances and the brand's enduring essence of resilience.

The new GMA-P2100IT and GMA-P2100ZY watches mark the first official collaboration between G-SHOCK and ITZY.

The collection boasts of a dial with a monochromatic color scheme emphasized by hour makers in  the colors of the official ITZY ring lights. Midzys will be delighted to see this watch adorned with the official ITZY logo at the top center of the dial. 

To mark this special collaboration, the back of the watch is engraved with the ITZY logo and comes packaged in a special box featuring printed autographs of the members, Yeji, Lia, Yuna, Ryujin, and Chaeryeong. 

This eco-friendly watch utilizes bio-based resin in the bezel and band, reducing the environmental impact of its production. The GMA-S2100 has been further optimized for comfort, with a compact design and an adjustable band perfect for slimmer wrists.

This special summer collection caters to every timepiece lover who wants something different, or as ITZY says, “Dalla Dalla.” 

Among its many exciting features is the Super Illuminator for clear readability in low-light conditions. 

This ITZY summer collection includes the GMA-P2100IT-7A, GMA-P2100IT-4A, and GMA-P2100ZY-1A priced at ₱9,980.00 each. The GMA-P2100IT and GMA-P2100ZY showcase subtle colorways for versatile wear, making them perfect companions for any summer adventure!
