Blending mythical inspiration with modern horology, G-SHOCK has unveiled a special edition timepiece to celebrate the 2026 Lunar New Year. The new model, themed around the upcoming Year of the Horse, draws its spirit from the legendary Qianlima—a mythical horse in Chinese folklore said to travel a thousand li in a single day.

The watch, model GBM-2100CX-9A, transforms the brand's iconic 2100 series silhouette into a symbol of power, elegance, and auspicious fortune. The design is a direct homage to its equine inspiration: the dial features a bold, artistic horse motif, while the bezel, plated in lustrous gold ion, is engraved with flowing lines that mimic a horse's mane. Gold hour indices and striking red accents complete the festive and powerful aesthetic, symbolizing prosperity and vitality for the new year.

Beyond its face, the dedication to the theme continues with an original illustration of the Qianlima engraved on the case back and featured across the special edition packaging.
Advanced Tech in a Slim Profile
Retaining the sleek, popular profile of the 2100 series, this special edition does not compromise on functionality. It is equipped with G-SHOCK's Tough Solar technology, which charges in sunlight or indoor light, and Smartphone Link capabilities for automatic time adjustment and other connected features.
In a nod to sustainable manufacturing, key resin components of the case and band are made from biomass plastics, derived from renewable organic resources to reduce environmental impact.
Pricing and Availability
The G-SHOCK Year of the Horse 2026 model will be priced at RM1,388. It is scheduled for official release on the Casio Malaysia website from January 12, 2026, followed by availability at G-SHOCK stores and authorized dealer stores from the end of January.
For the latest visuals and precise launch updates, the public is advised to follow G-SHOCK's official social media channels on Facebook and Instagram.
