Casio Releases New Baby-G Watches Modeled After Popular G-SHOCK
With Cool Metallic Face Design
- August 10, 2012
BG-6901
Tokyo, August 10, 2012 — Casio Computer Co., Ltd., announced today
the release of the BG-6900 and 6901, representing five new Baby-G models
that have inherited the design of the popular DW-6900 G-SHOCK model.
Like all Baby-G shock-resistant watches for women, these new watches
embody the concept of "tough, cute, and cool."
The new BG-6900 and 6901 are modeled after the G-SHOCK DW-6900, their
very popular big brother that has won the hearts of young people who are
into street fashion. The DW-6900 stands out on the street for its bold
round face and graphical three-dial arrangement, which has earned the
nickname, "three eyes."
The new Baby-G watches add femininity and cuteness to the appeal of the
DW-6900. While maintaining the "three eyes" design, the new watches have
a more petite face designed to fit the wrist of a woman. Along with
decorative screws adorning both sides of the face, the light button has
been rounded, and the ring part around the button gives the design an
added cute factor.
The resin band and face components are rendered with a glossy finish.
With the gold and silver-colored dial plates, which feature a
mirror-like finish that reflects light to shine and scintillate, plus
mirror LCDs that match the tone of the dial plates, Casio has created an
amazingly cool, high-quality look.
