G-shock recently announced that it is launching a new collection of timepieces featuring a flame-like dial.

And the good thing about this collection is that it comes with a strap with a smoke-like hue to complement the dial. Think of the dial as the ‘cause’ and the strap as the ‘effect’ of what’s burning.

Since different types of flames burn in different colors, the G-shock flame series is also available in multiple colors. While the GA-2100FL-1A and GA-100FL-1A have a blue dial to depict the nature of high-burning flames, the GA-2100FL-8A and GA-100FL-8A have an orange dial.

The GA-100FL-1A has three purple-like subdials that effectively accent other shades on the dial, giving the whole timepiece a flame-like look.

Even though the GA-100FL-1A and GA-2100FL-1A are equipped with a blue dial, they have different hues.

The upper section of GA-2100FL-1A’s dial has a purplish shade to highlight different sections of a blue flame. Unlike the GA-100FL-1A, this timepiece has two subdials only.

When it comes to low-temperature flames, the GA-2100FL-8A and GA-100FL-8A depict how such flames look with a two-toned dial. The bottom section of the dial is deep red, while the top section is characterized by a light orange hue.

These new G-shock watch models were rolled out in Japan first, but they will also be introduced into other markets.

G-shock has yet to provide clear release dates. However, the models might be available for shipping by the end of the year.

While its design might not seem drastically different from other New Balance sneakers, the 992 silhouette has earned its status as one of the most popular in the brand’s lineup. First released in 2006 to commemorate the brand’s 100th anniversary, the 992 gained notoriety as the go-to sneaker for the late Steve Jobs. As part of his uniform, the 992 became a go-to practical shoe for many.
