Another exclusive collaboration between its G-SHOCK brand of shock-resistant watches and the world-famous British virtual band Gorillaz. The collaboration models, the GW-B5600GZ and GA-2000GZ, are designed with motifs and colours inspired by covers of Gorillaz albums.

The base model for the new GW-B5600GZ is the square-shaped GW-B5600 digital watch with Bluetooth® communication and solar-powered radio control. The watch features a black watch face, and the band features a combination of pop blue and pink inspired by the hues from the latest Gorillaz album “NOW NOW.” The message “NOW” floats onto the display whenever it is illuminated with the LED backlight.

The base model for the new GA-2000GZ is the digital-analog combination watch GA-2000, which employs a new carbon construction with the ability to switch watch bands. The entire watch band features a vivid green camouflage pattern inspired by the cover of Gorillaz’s eponymous first album. A second watch band is included and features a darker-hued camouflage pattern, so that users can coordinate with their clothing.
