Casio GM-B2100SD-1A Features:
The GM-B2100SD-1A is a developed version of the 2022 GM-B2100D-1A, featuring a much more readable face due to its dark gray background and silver-colored watch hands and hour markers.
This might seem like a minor facelift to the design, but it may very well make all the difference in how these users will interact with their watches on a day-to-day basis, as they check for time under a multitude of lighting conditions.
Hybrid analog and digital display capabilities are included with this model, the Bluetooth connectivity and solar charging this watch comes with also indicate that that is more than a standard timepiece; the Bluetooth functionality is supposed to enable the sync of the watch with a smartphone for automatic time adjustments together with reminder functions and a further phone finder tool. Casio’s solar charging system provides up to seven months of battery life, meaning it will not need to be charged so much.
G-Shock GMC-B2100ZE-1A Features:
Casio’s GMC-B2100ZE-1A is a special G-Shock as part of the anniversary commemoration of 50 years. There, for instance, is the black ion-plated stainless steel bezel with gold accents and a gold ion-plated link within the stainless steel band. The special case will combine refinement with the ruggedness that gives G-Shock its appeal.
While the GMC-B2100ZE-1A is pretty much the same as other GMC-B2100 models when it comes to features-gold accents make it stand out when it comes to aesthetics. The model will add the smart features standard from Casio automatic time adjustment and the control over the phone through the Casio Watches app.
