Building on the popularity of Casio’s G-SHOCK MTG-B2000 (reviewed here) is a special edition variant with unique patterns and construction.
New MTG-B2000XMG is a limited brand of Casio’s impact-resistant watch, featuring a multi-colored carbon bezel made of colored carbon and glass fibers laminated at random. Casio said this gives a coloration of “Mystic Mountain”, where it looks like different strata of color created by oxidized minerals that have accumulated over time due to volcanic activity and tectonic movement.ALSO READ Fitbit Charge 5 Video Review: Affordable ECG Health Monitor Or Expensive Fitness Tracker?
The inner edge of the bezel has rainbow ion plating, while the band buckle and buckle uses gold colored ion plating. These choices help complement the random multicolor design of the MTG-B2000XMG.
Randomly applying its appearance also ensures that there are no two identical designs on every MTG-B2000XMG.
Like the basic version, the MTG-B2000XMG comes with some of its standard G-SHOCK features such as solar charging, Smartphone Link and a high brightness LED.
