On the 2nd of September, Casio announced the expansion of G-Shock’s STAY GOLD collection with five new models. The models include the GSTB400GB-1A9, GSTB100GB-A9, GSTB500BD-1A9, GM200G-1A9 and the GM5600G-9. The new models boast the sunny hues of yellow gold, aimed at consumers who desire a timeless gold colourway as well as the functionality and durability to withstand any occasion. Casio has delivered the best of both worlds in this release with all the beloved features of a G-Shock that doesn’t compromise on the luxurious style of a gold watch.
The gold accents alone are enough of a reason to check out this range. Complete with a gold IP bezel, gold side buttons and minimalist dial treatments, the case is crafted to perfection by skilled watchmakers to bring you a watch unlike any other. The shiny lustre exudes a sense of professionalism and class that only a classic gold watch can match.
Black and gold is a colour combination that has been beloved for hundreds of years, they are virtually made for each other. The two shades are so stark in contrast, the matte void of black accentuates the shiny textures of yellow gold to create a striking look. From jewellery to fashion, decor and architecture, black and gold has been utilised in almost every creative format. A gold watch is almost always synonymous with luxury and sophistication, a timeless piece that is a staple in any wardrobe.
The Stay Gold series features an all-metal GSTB500BD-1A9 and two resin band options in GSTB100GB-1A9 and GSTB400GB-1A9.
With their four new models, Casio has really drilled down their intent to create a range of gold watches that embody the beloved characteristics of the brand. The CasiOak, the timeless 5600 and the G-SHOCK G-Steel watch models are fundamental in representing G-Shock’s style and key attributes that make them so charming.

The GM2100G-1A9, which is known collectively as the CasiOak, is eye-catching in its individualistic features that are instantly recognisable. The memorable aesthetic is exactly what we love about CasiOaks, and its transformation to this colour palette is effortless with the stainless steel case and polished ion-plated gold overlay, a black dial and a matching black resin band that conforms comfortably to the wrist.
The main divergence of this model to other CasiOaks is the colour. The gold and black finish generates a luxe, high-quality feel while maintaining all the esteemed functions of a Casio including a world time indicator able to display the time in 31 different cities, a 1/100th of a second chronograph, up to five daily alarms, a countdown timer, an automatic calendar capable of tracking the date up until 2099, as well as the tried-and-true durability of all G-SHOCKS.
On the other hand, the GM5600G-9 model is a downsized version with a digital display. This version has a stainless steel case with ion-plated gold across its surface and a bright and clear digital display. A watch for those who want the benefits of a G-Shock in a more streamlined, minimalistic tone, the GM5600G-9 is a great alternative. With a two-year battery life, 200-metre water resistance and shock resistance, the defining difference is in its aesthetics.
In the other models, you can step out in confidence with the impressive G-Steel combination of metal and resin. The GSTB500BD-1A9 is crafted in a smoky black finish with bronze reflections, the dial is set with luxurious gold plating that makes it a real showstopper. Understated, yet stylish, this G-Shock features the best of both worlds from style and performance. Enjoy a range of digital features such as world time, three-year battery life and super illuminator backlight.
Meanwhile, the GSTB400GB-1A9 and the GST-B100GB-1A9 offer the bold construction of a CasiOak with the comfort of a soft resin band. In these models, the lustre of the dial really stands out but is more subtle than the complete stainless steel version.
