6 new Casio G-Shock Hidden Glow watches now available to buy in the US, featuring glowing dials
Casio's Hidden Glow Volume 2 series is now officially available for purchase in the US, after its recent launch in the region. The lineup features six new G-Shock models built around a glow-in-the-dark concept inspired by ocean plankton. All six watches are listed on the official G-Shock US store, with prices ranging from $110 to $140 depending on the model.
The lineup includes the GA110HDS-7A ($140), along with five $110 models: the GA700HDS-7A, GA2100HDS-7A, GA2100HDS7A1, DW6900HDS-7, and DW6900HDS7A1. These watches use white resin cases and bands paired with soft blue highlights for that oceanic theme. The most unique design element here is the use of phosphorescent material on the dials, which absorbs light during the day and glows in the dark without the need for electricity.
Compared to Hidden Glow Volume 1, which came with darker tones and greenish lume over translucent cases, Volume 2 takes a brighter approach with white and blue aesthetics and more marine-inspired visuals. While both share the glowing dial gimmick/feature, this release is more playful, to say the least.
All models come with standard G-Shock features like 200-meter water resistance, shock resistance, stopwatch and timer functions, world time, and daily alarms. The GA110 also includes an auto LED light function that activates when the watch is tilted.
It's unclear if the Hidden Glow Vol. 2 watches will be limited in availability or not. Based on how fast previous color-themed series have sold out, these may not stay in stock long.
