Coming in an easily recognizable sporty design, the new Casio G-Shock GIEZ GS1300B-1A quartz chronograph watch is literally stuffed with high technologies.



Just as the recently presented Casio G-Shock MT-G (MTG1100-1A) model, the GIEZ features the Tough Movement system that automatically adjusts hand positioning at the 55-minute position, compensating for occasional hands displacement due to magnetic force or, err, g-shocks.

The watch’s accuracy is further increased with the Multi-Band 6 Atomic Timekeeping technology letting the watch to self-adjust according to signals of atomic clocks broadcasted via 6 transmitters located in the United States, Japan, UK, Germany and Japan.

Of course, the G-Shock GIEZ also features a small solar panel that recharges its built-in battery.

Casio recommends selling the watch at a humble price of $500.
