The Casio G-Shock Full Metal GMC-B2100Y-1A watch is about to be released in more European countries. Already available in the UK, this model has a metal bezel and casing and a metal-look resin strap. The timepiece has an analog dial and also supports Bluetooth for automatic time adjustments.

Casio is releasing the G-Shock Full Metal GMC-B2100Y-1A watch in other markets. This analog timepiece appeared at the start of July and has since been released in the UK and Japan.

Now, Casio has announced that the G-Shock GMC-B2100Y-1A watch is coming to other European countries like the Netherlands, Spain and Germany. At the brand’s online store, it is listed with a €749 RRP. It is said to be coming soon, but the exact release date has not been provided. Instead, prospective customers are encouraged to sign up for the Casio mailing list to be notified via email when this product launches.

The Casio G-Shock GMC-B2100Y-1A is a full metal watch with an octagonal stainless steel bezel with a brush finish. The casing, measuring 51.3 x 46.3 x 12.4 mm (~2.0 x 1.8 x 0.5 inches), is also made of stainless steel. However, the black band is made from silicone, with a finish mimicking the brushed metal bezel.

Casio’s GMC-B2100Y-1A is a Bluetooth watch, meaning users can access tools like phone finder and get automatic time adjustments via the Casio Watches smartphone app. On the watch are tools like a 1-second stopwatch, a daily alarm and a countdown timer. It has three analog hands and three dials, one indicating the day of the week and another showing the time in a second time zone of your choosing. Casio has yet to confirm whether or when the G-Shock Full Metal GMC-B2100Y-1A watch could be released in the US.
