Upgrade Your Wrist For Winter: Introducing the Casio G-SHOCK G-STEEL Watch

Finding the right watch is a tricky endeavor — finding one that seamlessly blends style, durability, and functionality in one rugged yet accessible package is an even taller order. That’s where the reliable Casio G-SHOCK G-STEEL line comes into play.

Blending the best of tough, weather-ready durability with the type of style that won’t look out of place this holiday season, the GSTB100XA-1A, in particular, is the next watch you need to get on your wish list — or simply buy right now. It starts with lightweight yet rigid carbon, used to make a bezel that just won’t quit or fail you, no matter what you put it through. It helps that the layered carbon bezel design is crisp, visually interesting and fashion-forward — and is affixed to a rugged case, packed with additional features other watches simply do not have.

The same can be said for the clear sapphire glass — made to be highly scratch-resistant, no less. Like the rest of the G-SHOCK G-STEEL line, it’s a versatile watch that’s made to go anywhere you go.

The fact that it’s equipped with Bluetooth® technology to connect to your smartphone — via G-SHOCK’s Connected App — is a handy feature, too. Make no mistake though, this beastly, tough watch packs as much style as utility, and that’s going to make it worth the investment.

It also features solar-powered functionality for another utilitarian touch that only makes it even worthy of your time and hard-earned cash. It’s a watch that simply won’t quit.

When you want a watch that won’t fail your during winter adventures, reach for the G-SHOCK G-STEEL line. More specifically, pair it with tough chore pants, a warm thermal henley and a herringbone field coat for all-day performance (and shock resistance). A dash of style that wouldn’t look out of place at your favorite bar.

Feeling more casual? The GSTB100XA-1A will wear with ease alongside a classic chambray shirt, faded denim and black leather moc toe boots at a holiday gathering. Heading to a late-season football tailgate? Trade your jersey for a long-sleeve merino tee, a down vest and tan chinos — simply add the GSTB100XA-1A for connected performance and style that stands up to winter weather. You’ll stay on time via the G-SHOCK Connected app, you’ll battle winter weather with shock-resistant technology, and you might just be the most stylish guy at your tailgate.

All of this is to say, the Casio G-SHOCK G-STEEL line is the ideal blend of style and function for winter and well beyond.

You can now carry the moon on your wrist with one of these moon watches with actual moon dust
There are 3 different models in this watch collection
Yanko Design Moon Dust watch

Humans are nothing if not explorers, and watches have helped them do it from day one. From discovering the New World to diving into the depths of the seas, we have always reached for the unknown. One of the most triumphant discoveries of our world was reaching beyond it entirely, as we sent brave explorers into space and put a man on the moon. The Apollo 11 mission sparked imagination and wonder in the entire world as they watched Neil Armstrong drop from the lunar module ladder and utter his famous phrase, "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Accompanying Armstrong, and almost every explorer across the globe, are some of the best and most durable men's watches on the planet.

Now, you can wear a watch that commemorates Armstrong's walk on the moon and the entirety of the Apollo missions, as Yanko Designs releases the Interstellar LUNAR1,622 watch. Not only is it a gorgeous piece of horological engineering, but it features multiple callouts and aspects that will make you want to reach for the stars and follow in the footsteps of the most famous explorers in history. Or at least talk about it at your next party when someone asks about the striking piece on your wrist.
