The Japanese manufacturer has unveiled a new duo of metal women’s timepieces dubbed ‘MSGS200D-7A’ and ‘MSGS200DG-4A’ as part of its ‘G-MS collection’, featuring two upscale watches in silver and rose gold hues.

The solar-powered timepieces are capable of running off power converted from indoor lighting and sunlight and come with a compact metal bezel and band design. They are shock-resistant, water-resistant to 100 meters, and include LED illumination, as well as auto calendar and daily alarm functions for women on the go.

Casio’s signature ‘G-Shock’ watch turned 35 this year, and the brand’s ‘G-Shock Women’ division already includes multiple lines, such as its popular ‘S Series’ and ‘Baby-G’ collection. The original watch, which was designed by engineer Kikuo Ibe, first made its debut back in 1983 and quickly gained a reputation for its high levels of resistance.

The MSGS200D-7A and MSGS200DG-4A will launch this September at select Macy’s department stores and jewellers, as well as at gshock.com, priced at US$200 and US$240 respectively.
