G-Shock’s Elite Dive Watch Gets a Premium Makeover with Tactical Styling

The Army-green MRG-BF1000RG-3A swaps out resin for titanium when it comes to the case and bezel, both treated with Casio’s proprietary deep-layer hardening process to achieve a surface hardness five times greater than that of standard titanium.

The watch also features a Dura Soft fluoro rubber band, complimented by a Ti64 titanium buckle; Tough Solar power; Multi-Band 6 auto radio time adjustment; and a bevy of other attributes.

But none highlight the watch’s commanding combination of form and function like the sapphire crystal caseback. Defined by its signature engraving and green vapor disposition, it rounds out a highly formidable housing comprised of more than 70 individual components, according to Casio.

As for diving, functions pertinent to the pursuit are shown in analog; dive and surface interval times, for example, are indicated by the direction of the hands on the display, which includes hands in visibility orange.
