G-Shock GA-V01-1ACR

The G-Shock GA-V01-1ACR is a groundbreaking timepiece that pushes the boundaries of traditional watch architecture with its "alien-inspired" design language. Featuring a stealthy all-black aesthetic, this model utilizes an organic, fluid form factor that makes a massive visual statement on the wrist. The most notable innovation is the Shock Release Hand system—a magnetic structure that allows the minute hand to shift or detach during severe impact to prevent gear damage, automatically re-aligning itself once the shock has passed.

The watch's construction features a unique "bumper" design where the oversized, 3D hour markers are integrated into the bezel and sit above the level of the glass. This creates a protective cage for the spherical mineral crystal, shielding it from direct hits while adding to the watch's multi-dimensional, futuristic look. Despite its imposing 58.2mm diameter and industrial scale, the watch remains surprisingly lightweight at 74 grams, utilizing high-grade resin to ensure it remains comfortable for all-day wear while maintaining G-Shock’s legendary shock resistance
