If you had to choose, which of these iconic watches is the coolest G-SHOCK?

G-SHOCK Square 5000/5600 Series: The Classic G-SHOCK

Iconic watches don’t get more iconic than this. Its intro in 1983 turned the timepiece world upside down, as the dream of making a nearly unbreakable watch was realized with the first G-SHOCK square. Its 40+ year run has solidified it as a contender for best G-SHOCK, and the many iterations and features of the G-SHOCK square make it wildly popular today. Appealing to tradition and constant innovation, many strongly believe that the G-SHOCK square is clearly the coolest G-SHOCK.

G-SHOCK 2100 Series: Since 2019, A Top-Rated G-SHOCK

What a stir the 2100 series continues to cause! Its slim form is often paired with advanced features. Sporting a visually sharp octagonal bezel, the 2100 series is often thought the best G-SHOCK because of its incredible design features and chart-topping success. The coolest G-SHOCK? Quite possibly.

G-SHOCK 6900 Series: Iconic Watches with a Triple Graph

While those who collaborate with G-SHOCK are represented by all of the iconic watches, it’s clear that collaborators love the 6900 series. NASA, ASRV, Albino & Preto, A Bathing Ape®, Ed Sheeran and others have all put their special touches on this unique digital watch. Does that make the 6900 series the best G-SHOCK? If not, it certainly makes it a top contender for coolest G-SHOCK.

G-SHOCK 110 Series: Artistic Flair as the Best G-SHOCK Watch

There’s a unique artistry in the 110 series. Inspired by a steampunk aesthetic, the mechanistic look of the gear-shaped hands and the y-shaped dial make this a top-rated G-SHOCK with unique flavor. The initial steampunk aesthetic has been given additional flair with an incredible array of variety in design and color over the years, making the 110 series a classic G-SHOCK with impressive permutations. Coolest G-SHOCK? The unique dial and analog-digital combo certainly make it a top-rated G-SHOCK to date.
