Casio new RM Series G-Shock

It is now official. Casio will be releasing the new RM Series at the end of the month, 30th June. What so special about the series? Well, watches in the series weighs a paltry 47 grams. How is this possible you ask? Well it has carbon fibre material in the construction of the band and case. And if I read correctly, titanium is also used in parts of the watch.

There will be 2 models in the new RM (Resin Material) Series. The first will be the GW-S5600-1JF to be launched on 30th June and the reverse LCD version, GW-S5600B-1JF a month later. Both watches will be fitted with module 3159, thus offering the Tough Solar and Atomic Sync functionality. The watches are expected to retail around USD 345 and USD 370 respectively.
