G-SHOCK GMC-B2100ADS-1A
“The Chronoak”

A bold octagonal chronograph that blends premium craftsmanship with unmistakable G-SHOCK toughness.

The G-SHOCK GMC-B2100ADS-1A, nicknamed “The Chronoak”, takes the iconic 2100 design into full chronograph territory. With its stainless steel construction, refined silver dial, and solar-powered Bluetooth movement, it delivers the rugged durability G-SHOCK is known for while adding the functionality and presence of a premium analog chronograph. It is a watch that feels equally at home as an everyday companion or the centerpiece of a modern G-SHOCK collection.

Why G-SHOCK GMC-B2100ADS-1A, The Chronoak?

The GMC-B2100ADS-1A represents something G-SHOCK collectors had been waiting for: a true analog chronograph built into the iconic octagonal 2100 design without compromising its proportions or identity. Rather than adding bulk for the sake of extra functions, Casio engineered a dedicated module that keeps the watch balanced on the wrist while delivering stopwatch functionality, Tough Solar charging, Bluetooth connectivity, and automatic time adjustment.

Its full stainless steel construction elevates the familiar 2100 formula into a genuinely premium watch. The sharp case finishing, integrated bracelet, and metallic silver dial with contrasting black sub-dials give it a level of detail that stands apart from resin models, while the carbon core heritage and shock-resistant construction remain unmistakably G-SHOCK. It is equally comfortable as an everyday watch or as the centerpiece of a collection.

Then there is the design. The octagonal bezel has become one of the most recognizable modern watch shapes, but the GMC-B2100ADS-1A gives it a new character. The addition of a chronograph creates a more purposeful, technical dial without losing the clean symmetry that defines the 2100 family. It is a watch that looks unmistakably like a G-SHOCK, yet occupies a space that no previous full-metal 2100 did.

Why the nickname Chronoak?

The name “The Chronoak” comes from combining chronograph with the nickname “CasiOak.” While the GMC-B2100ADS-1A is not officially called either by Casio, it shares the same unmistakable octagonal design language that made the 2100 series famous, while adding a fully integrated analog chronograph for the first time in a full-metal G-SHOCK.

Unlike many chronographs that simply add extra sub-dials to an existing design, the GMC-B2100ADS-1A was engineered around its chronograph movement from the ground up. It retains the balanced proportions of the 2100 family while incorporating stopwatch functionality, Tough Solar charging, Bluetooth connectivity, and a meticulously finished stainless steel case and bracelet. The result is a watch that feels more refined than previous analog G-SHOCK chronographs without sacrificing the toughness the brand is known for.

“The Chronoak” isn’t an official Casio name or an established community nickname. It’s simply a fitting shorthand for a watch that combines the iconic octagonal silhouette of the 2100 series with the functionality and presence of a premium chronograph.

The G-SHOCK Full Metal Chronograph Today

The GMC-B2100ADS-1A is one of the newest additions to G-SHOCK’s premium full-metal lineup, bringing a true analog chronograph to the iconic octagonal 2100 series for the first time. It builds on the design language established by the original 2100 models while introducing an entirely new chronograph module developed specifically for this watch.

The silver metallic dial is its defining feature. Finished with a fine sunray pattern and contrasted by black inset sub-dials, it delivers a clean, technical appearance that is more refined than previous analog G-SHOCK chronographs. The stainless steel case and integrated bracelet feature a combination of hairline brushing and mirror-polished surfaces, while the octagonal bezel retains the unmistakable shape that has become synonymous with the 2100 family.

Beneath the exterior is the technology expected from a flagship G-SHOCK. Tough Solar charging powers the watch, Bluetooth connectivity provides automatic time adjustment and smartphone features through the CASIO WATCHES app, and Super Illuminator LED lighting ensures excellent legibility in low light. Sapphire crystal, 200-meter water resistance, and G-SHOCK’s renowned shock-resistant construction complete a watch that combines premium finishing with everyday durability.
