G-Shock GBD-H1000BAR-4 and GBD-100BAR-4 Matchday: Inside FC Barcelona Collaborations

The G-Shock G-SQUAD GBD-H1000BAR-4ER, coming soon to Europe, is a special collaboration with professional football club FC Barcelona. This is the first-ever collaboration with a GBD-H1000 base.

The watch features red, gold, and yellow colors for the bezel and a blue and garnet patterned band. The club name and motto “Més que un club” (“More than a club”) is printed on the lower band, and a “Matchday” logo is printed on the upper band. “Matchday: Inside FC Barcelona” was a television documentary series that followed the 2018-2019 season.

The GBD-H1000BAR-4ER is an advanced fitness and training watch featuring solar and USB charging, GPS, optical heart rate monitor, Bluetooth, and a Triple Sensor (pressure: altimter-barometer, compass, thermometer).

The watch is currently listed as “coming soon” at select Casio Europe online shops with a price of €519.

Another collaboration model with the same color scheme and design elements, the G-Shock G-SQUAD GBD-100BAR-4ER, is also coming soon with a price of €229. The GBD-100 base watch is smaller than the GBD-H1000 and is powered by a CR2032 battery with an estimated 2-year battery life. Major features include a step counter and Bluetooth smartphone link.

Update: The GBD-H1000BAR-4 and GBD-100BAR-4 were also announced for Japan and Asia. In Japan, the watches will be released on January 14, 2022.
