G-SHOCK’s has unveiled oasis-inspired versions of the GA-2100 and GA-110 lines, bringing bold blue-green hues to signature models that continue to define the Japanese watchmaker’s design legacy. The Oasis collection includes the GA-2100AS-2A, GA-2100AS-5A, GA-110AS-2A and GA-110AS-5A, each available in blue and white colorways.
When first released in 2010, the GA-110 delivered a hyper-industrial large case design with maximalist accents embodying the brand’s spirit of toughness; it reimagined the scale of a typical analog watch and emphasized a heightened sense of visual dimension. The streamlined facade of the GA-2100 encompasses this sense of strength in a subtler format. As the heir to the iconic DW-5000C, it inherits a slim, octagonal case and a dial featuring three-dimensional molding. In addition to a carbon core guard structure, the case, bezel and strap incorporate bio-based resin, delivering a lightweight, durable composition that’s ideal for marine and land sports.
Thematically, the collection nods to the wonders of daytime and nighttime oases, drawing inspiration from desert landscapes, multicolored bodies of water and idyllic natural environments. These visual cues carry over to the dial, hour markers and indices, which feature a soft-washed blue-green gradient, adding cool-toned depth to the watch face.
Standard features return across the collection, including 20-bar water resistance, shock resistance and a countdown timer. The GA-2100AS-5A and GA-2100AS-2A offer five daily alarms, a 1/100-second stopwatch, a Super Illuminator LED and world time in 30 zones. The GA-110AS-2A and GA-110AS-5A feature a 1/1000-second stopwatch and LED.
