Casio has launched new versions of their classic Casio G-Shock watch in Japan in the form of the new Casio G-Shock Bluetooth equipped sports watches GB-6900B and GB-X6900B.
The addition of Bluetooth 4.0 support to the new Casio G-Shock Bluetooth watches allows them to now enjoy two-way functionality between a paired smartphone and the G-Shock watch.
Enhanced Connectivity and Features
The Casio G-Shock Bluetooth can then be used to control the music on their smartphone directly from their wrist as well as other specific smartphone applications. This feature is particularly useful for fitness enthusiasts who want to manage their music playlists without having to reach for their phones during workouts. Additionally, the watch can notify users of incoming calls, emails, and messages, making it a versatile tool for staying connected while on the go.
Casio has also sorted the battery life of the watch with the help of the low power usage of Bluetooth 4.0 offering an impressive two-year battery life with 12 hours of Bluetooth use per day on a single CR2032 battery. This long battery life ensures that users can enjoy the watch’s advanced features without the constant worry of recharging.
Design and Durability
The new Casio G-Shock Bluetooth watches are available in either GB-6900B and GB-X6900B models. Both models retain the rugged and durable design that G-Shock watches are known for, featuring shock resistance and water resistance up to 200 meters. This makes them ideal for outdoor activities and extreme sports. The GB-6900B model has a more compact design, while the GB-X6900B offers a larger display for easier readability.
The watches also come with a variety of color options, allowing users to choose a style that best fits their personal taste. The combination of advanced technology and classic G-Shock durability makes these watches a perfect blend of form and function.
The new Casio G-Shock Bluetooth watches will first be released in Japan during September of this year for roughly 18,000 yen or $187 and 20,000 yen or $208 respectively. Given the popularity of G-Shock watches worldwide, it is expected that these models will soon be available in other markets as well.
The new Casio G-Shock Bluetooth watches GB-6900B and GB-X6900B offer a significant upgrade to the classic G-Shock line. With the addition of Bluetooth 4.0, users can enjoy enhanced connectivity and functionality, all while benefiting from the durable and stylish design that G-Shock is known for. Whether you’re a fitness enthusiast, an outdoor adventurer, or simply someone who appreciates a reliable and feature-rich watch, the new G-Shock Bluetooth models are sure to impress.
