G-SHOCK Unveils Bold New GA-V01, A Reinvention of Toughness & Design

G-SHOCK, the iconic watch brand from Casio Computer Co., Ltd., raises the bar once again with the launch of its latest masterpiece — the GA-V01. Fusing futuristic design with unshakable durability, the GA-V01 is a fearless expression of G-SHOCK’s "Never Give Up" spirit, born from the original vision of its legendary creator, Mr. Kikuo Ibe.

🛠️ GA-V01: Where Innovation Meets Indestructibility

Inspired by the story of Mr. Ibe dropping his first prototype from the lab window in the 1980s, the GA-V01 carries forward the legacy of building the unbreakable. Designed by Mr. Tomohiro Hamaue, the GA-V01 doesn’t just follow in the footsteps of G-SHOCK icons — it reshapes them entirely.

This all-new model features a revolutionary construction with an integrated band and bezel for a seamless, organic shape. Sharp bumper-type indexes and side buttons emphasize strength, while the oversized, spherical-glass-covered face houses a unique analog-digital hybrid dial — an ultra-modern blend of openwork metallic layers and full-screen LCD.

Aesthetic meets innovation in a butterfly-shaped dial that screams Y3K futurism — bold, exaggerated, and ready for the next era.

🧲 Introducing the Game-Changer: Shock Release Hand

At the heart of the GA-V01 is a breakthrough magnetic holding structure. The Shock Release Hand system uses magnetic force — rather than fixed shafts — to hold the minute hand in place. This enables better shock absorption, allowing for larger, more expressive hands without compromising durability.

Combined with G-SHOCK’s signature shock-resistant construction, a 10-year high-capacity battery, and a bold new silhouette, this model is made for those who demand both performance and presence.

🎨 Four Colours. One Attitude.

Whether you're into sleek minimalism or loud statement pieces, the GA-V01 comes in four striking colourways:

⚫ Classic G-SHOCK Black

🔵 Neon Blue

🟡 Neon Yellow

⚪ Silver Metallic

Each variant reflects the spirit of individuality while delivering G-SHOCK’s legendary toughness in full force.

🔥 From Lab-Tested Roots to Futuristic Form

The GA-V01 isn’t just a watch. It’s a manifestation of evolution — from the original prototype hurled from a lab window, to the resilient rubber ball that defined shock absorption, and now, the battle-ready, beast-like silhouette that makes the GA-V01 a future legend.
