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

The Manual
By

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.

All new Rolex 1908 men’s watch leans into timeless Rolex styling and we can’t get enough of it
You won't stop staring at it, but that has nothing to do with what time it is
The Rolex Perpetual 1908

The world’s most desirable watch brand, Rolex, is paying homage to its long and storied history with a new series of watches. The new Rolex watch takes inspiration from the vintage timepieces that made the luxury brand what it is today. So expect an almost impossibly slim profile, smaller dimensions than modern men’s watches, and large numbers. Another nice vintage touch is the lack of a central seconds hand, with a dedicated sub-dial being used instead.

Rolex’s main inspiration when creating the Perpetual 1908 is the original Oyster Perpetual from 1931. While its 39mm diameter may be a little more petit than the 45+ mm dive watches that have been in vogue over the last few decades, it’s actually somewhat of a compromise. Many classic men’s watches are rocking 34mm or 36mm cases.
