A new G-Shock collection called Street Red has been unveiled on Instagram, showcasing a striking red design across four of Casio’s most popular models. The Instagram post from @geesgshock features official images of the entire lineup and announces a release date set for December in Japan.
Watch Lineup
The collection includes a diverse selection from the current G-Shock lineup. The models featured are the square DW-5600RRB-4, round DW-6900RRB-4, large ana-digital GA-110RRB-4A, and the octagonal GA-2100RRB-4A “CasiOak,” all finished in the same vibrant red shade, complemented by black accents and inverted LCDs. Casio promotes these as “Iconic Styles” ideal for streetwear and casual occasions.
Design Details
All four timepieces share a similar aesthetic: a matte red resin case and band, red bezels, and dials that incorporate black, dark grey, and red highlights. The digital models feature negative displays (light numbers on a dark screen), which lend a more “urban” vibe but might sacrifice some readability for style.
The DW-6900RRB-4 maintains its three subdials and rounded shape, showcasing black lettering on the bezel along with a red “G” button. Meanwhile, the DW-5600RRB-4 has a red square bezel and a digital window that nearly blends into the watch, thanks to its monochromatic design. Both watches keep the expected 200 m water resistance, alarm, and stopwatch features typical of G-Shock models.
Unique Features
In the analog-digital category, the GA-110RRB-4A boasts the most complex dial in the series. The images reveal layered red hands, red and black subdials, and grey inner elements that prevent the watch from appearing as just a solid red mass. The resin band retains the familiar multi-hole design, while the steel buckle stands out with its regular metallic finish for a touch of contrast.
The GA-2100RRB-4A is anticipated to attract the most attention. Casio’s sleek, octagonal CasiOak case has gained popularity in recent years, and in the Street Red version, it appears more understated than the GA-110 but still eye-catching. The dial features a red sunburst-like plate with a darker outer ring, baton markers, a small subdial at nine o’clock, and a digital display at 4:30. Again, the heavy red theme is present, accented by subtle black highlights around the chapter ring and digital screen.
The announcement states that the series will launch in Japan in December, but there are no details yet on global availability.
