Casio Unleashes the MRG-B2100: A Masterpiece Dipped in “Blue Ink”

 


Casio is back flexing its engineering dominance with the MRG-B2100, the latest heavyweight to join the G-SHOCK MR-G squad. This time, they’re serving up a full-metal beast draped in a mesmerizing “Blue Ink” dial—because luxury and toughness aren’t mutually exclusive.

Let’s talk construction. The bezel? Not just metal—27 meticulously crafted pieces of COBARION, a material four times harder than stainless steel, polished to a mirror finish using Zaratsu techniques. Blue IP accents? Of course. The case, back, buttons, and crown? Forged from lightweight yet unbreakable Ti64 titanium, making sure this watch feels premium without weighing you down.

But the real star? That “Blue Ink” dial, a nod to traditional Japanese kumiko latticework. It’s not just about looks—it’s functional, allowing light to pass through and juice up the solar module beneath.

On the tech side, the MRG-B2100 isn’t just a pretty face. It’s packing:

  • Bluetooth connectivity for seamless timekeeping
  • LED illumination for maximum visibility
  • Automatic hand position correction because precision is non-negotiable
  • Radio wave reception for next-level accuracy
  • Power-saving mode that stretches battery life to 18 hours

Dropping in Japan this month, the MRG-B2100R-2AJR will be available via G-SHOCK’s webstore for ¥550,000 JPY (around $3,524 USD). Tough, stylish, and built different—just how MR-G likes it.
