Classic yellow G-Shock series is inspired by the DW-001J-9 “Jason”: DW-5610Y-9, DW-6900Y-9, GMD-S6900Y-9, GA-110Y-9A, GMA-S110Y-9A
November 23, 2022
G-Shock is releasing a special series of five classic models inspired by the distinctive yellow, gray, and red colors of the iconic DW-001J-9 from 1994. The series includes the DW-5610Y-9 based on the origin-style DW-5600, the DW-6900Y-9 based on 1995’s DW-6900, the GA-110Y-9A based on the popular analog-digital GA-110 from 2010, and the small-size GMD-S6900Y-9 and GMA-S110Y-9A. All models are shock-resistant and water-resistant to 200 meters.
The DW-001 was known as “Jason” due to the mask-like appearance of its unique bezel design with holes in it for the thermometer sensor. The style was revived in 2010 with the G-001 but without the thermometer sensor.
The classic yellow series is scheduled for a December 2022 release in Japan. An international release is likely but not yet confirmed.
