Casio Marks MR-G's 30th Year With 800 Platinum-Leaf G-SHOCK Watches
Tokyo – September 24, 2026 -- Casio Computer Co., Ltd. has unveiled the MRG-B2100HR, a limited-edition watch marking 30 years since the debut of its flagship MR-G line within the G-SHOCK brand. Only 800 pieces will be sold worldwide.
The dial reimagines a traditional Japanese joinery pattern in platinum
The timepiece features a dimensional latticework dial inspired by kigumi, a traditional wood-joinery technique, finished in platinum leaf. Metal leaf artist Hiroto Rakusho created an original artwork applied to each watch using powdered platinum leaf, giving every piece its own texture and depth.
Laser-etched surfaces shift color depending on viewing angle
The bezel and bracelet use structural color technology, where precision laser processing creates metal leaf-inspired textures that change hue as the viewing angle shifts. Casio built the design around its shock-resistant MRG-B2100 model, retaining its signature octagonal bezel shape.
