G-Shock news Forgotten Future Collection: Where to get, price, features explored

G-Shock has introduced the 4-piece Forgotten Future collection, which is inspired by vintage watches with a futuristic look. G-Shock watches are manufactured by the Japanese electronics company Casio, and these watches are specially designed to resist mechanical stress, shock, and vibration. G-Shock watches are mainly for outdoor-oriented activities like sports and the military. These watches are popular among firefighters, paramedics, mountaineers, individuals working offshore, soldiers, and officers.

Keeping the main aim of these watches in mind, G-Shock has launched a collection of robotic-looking silver watches that have retro-future designs. These watches have all the key features of G-Shock, such as a built-in altimeter, a navigation compass, Bluetooth connectivity, a good shock, and a digital display, among many others. The 4-piece Forgotten Future collection is currently available for purchase at the official website of the band. Three pieces are retailing for $120, and one is for $160.

All four pieces from the Forgotten Future collection have a mirror-finished LCD dial and are covered in a shimmering layer of metallic coating from the case to the band. The color selection has a retro-futuristic design sense and is reminiscent of early science fiction.

The GA700FF-8A elevates the mechanical industrial style it exudes with a silvery vapor deposition treatment on the dial and a matching metallic tone for its angled indexes. The GA2200FF-8A features a transparent material to emphasize a larger contrast between the indices and the dial, in addition to being covered entirely in a silver metallic tone.

The DW5600FF-8 arrives in its typical octagonal and minimalist form and exudes a retro-futuristic vibe via its straightforward design. On the other hand, the dial of the GA2100FF-8A has a circular ragged finish to provide a striking contrast while also enhancing the sparkling appearance of the cases and bezel.
