A special edition Casio G-Shock watch celebrating the Chinese city of Harbin has been revealed. The GA-2100AS-2APRH is based on an older watch with a blue design and a semi-transparent dial. Features include support for world time, a stopwatch and multiple daily alarms.

A new Casio G-Shock GA-2100 series watch has been revealed in China. The Harbin City Edition watch, also known by model number GA-2100AS-2APRH, celebrates the capital of Heilongjiang, China.

The GA-2100AS-2APRH has an ice and snow-themed design. It is based on the GA-2100AS-2A, released in early 2025, with a navy blue resin casing and strap, and a semi-transparent blue-green dial. This special edition model adds a cracked ice pattern to the band, and the words “Ice City” can be found at the top of the lower strap. Plus, the model comes with a snowflake patterned 'G' pin and custom packaging.

The Casio GA-2100AS-2APRH’s features are identical to the original model. These include support for world time, two analog hands and a small, negative digital display showing further information like the date. The watch’s tools include a 1/100th second stopwatch, hourly time signals, a countdown timer and five daily alarms. Plus, it is water resistant to 200 m, and should run for around three years on the included batteries. 

In China, the Casio G-Shock Harbin City Edition GA-2100AS-2APRH watch will retail for around CNY 990 (~$142). This is expected to be a limited edition model, only available from select stores in the region.
