Casio Combines Elegant Luxury With Legendary Toughness In The New MTGS Line Of Watches

Casio Middle East FZE presents the elegant yet tough MTGS 1000D1A - the Metal Twisted G-SHOCK, a chronograph that combines both the elegant lines of a luxury timepiece with the renowned toughness of the G-SHOCK line. The MTGS line represents the ultimate refinement of Casio’s acclaimed G-SHOCK line, which will now be available across the brand’s points of sale in the GCC.

The Metal Twisted G-Shock is designed to cater to the tastes of the adventure enthusiast, who desires refinement combined with the hardy ruggedness of the G-SHOCK line. The MT-G collection uses the highest standards of engineering and rigorous testing at its design centre in Japan to ensure that every piece remains true to the original G-SHOCK concept, whilst a combination of the finest materials and opulent styling’s deliver the ultimate in a timepiece.

The stainless steel covering of the MT-G employs G-SHOCK's advanced Core Guard Structure of stainless steel, resin and alpha gel to ensure mechanical integrity, coupled with an LED-infused Tough Movement for ongoing precision. Multi-Band 6 atomic timekeeping ensures accuracy through radio-controlled time/date updates from global transmitting stations, along with Triple G Resist for shock, gravitational drop and centrifugal force resistance. The MT-G is the epitome of modern wrist couture. The MTGS 1000D1A comes with a stainless steel case and an elegant black face dial.
