Casio G-Shock GD-B500-1ER G-Squad Mens Watch

The compact G-SHOCK GD-B500 is a watch that points to the future with its bold, straightforward design and combines stylish aesthetics with modern functionality. The model is smaller and slimmer than its predecessors and has been specially developed for today's requirements. It offers everything you would expect from a watch in a minimalist and futuristic style, without compromising on robustness and versatility.

With a diameter of just 46.3 mm and a case height of 11 mm, the GD-B500 is remarkably compact. Despite its small size, it is equipped with a variety of advanced features, including Bluetooth and a pedometer, making it an ideal companion for active people who want to keep track of their daily activities. The watch's case and bezel are made of robust resin, a material known for its durability and resilience. The resin strap ensures a comfortable fit and adapts to wrists from 145 to 200 mm. The watch is shock-resistant and water-resistant to 20 bar, so it can withstand extreme conditions. One of the outstanding features of the GD-B500 is its connectivity. The watch can connect to your smartphone via Bluetooth and automatically adjust the time. So you always have the exact time in view, no matter where you are. With the CASIO WATCHES app, you can easily set the watch, manage world times, save life log data, transfer stopwatch data and even find your mobile phone if you have misplaced it.

The GD-B500's step counter is particularly useful for fitness enthusiasts. It can count up to 999,999 steps and displays progress against a step target (adjustable between 1,000 and 50,000 steps). A step reminder informs you with a display and a signal tone if the number of steps is too low. In addition, there is a step counter chart that displays the hourly step count for the last seven hours in a six-digit graphic. The watch also offers a range of timing functions. The 1/100 second stopwatch can measure time intervals of up to 24 hours and offers elapsed time, lap time and split time modes. Up to 200 data records with date, time and lap/intermediate times can be stored. The countdown timer can be set for up to 60 minutes and offers flexible start time settings in second and minute increments.

The GD-B500 is also equipped with five daily alarms and an hourly time signal so that you don't miss any important appointments or events. The LED backlight (Super Illuminator) ensures that you can easily read the time even in the dark. You can choose between an illumination time of 1.5 or 3 seconds and the automatic illumination function ensures that the backlight is activated when you turn your wrist. The GD-B500's fully automatic calendar is programmed up to the year 2099 and a mute function allows you to switch the button tones on or off as required. The power saving function can be activated to conserve battery life by deactivating the backlight and other non-essential functions. A warning message informs you when the battery is running low.

With a rate accuracy of ±15 seconds per month (without Mobile Link function) and additional functions such as the 12/24 hour display and periodic time recording, the GD-B500 offers maximum precision and reliability. This watch is therefore more than just a timepiece - it is a statement of style and functionality. Its sleek design and advanced features make it the perfect choice for anyone looking for a robust, versatile and stylish watch. The GD-B500 opens up completely new possibilities with G-SHOCK and ensures that you are ready for any challenge. Whether in everyday life or during sporting activities, the GD-B500 is always ready for action and impresses with its blend of elegance and functionality. This watch embodies the spirit of the future and shows that big things really can come in small packages.
