A fresh, fashion-forward take on a rugged classic has officially touched down. The new Casio G-Shock GA-2110MK-5A, created in collaboration with Parisian-Japanese lifestyle label Maison Kitsuné, is now available for purchase directly in the UK. Following its global announcement earlier in November, this limited-release model brings a distinctively warm colour palette and subtle brand detailing to one of G-Shock’s most popular silhouettes.
Priced at £159 and with a strict limit of three units per customer, the watch is already generating buzz. The product listing on the official G-Shock UK store explicitly marks it as excluded from any voucher code discounts, underscoring its special edition status.
A Design Blend of Street Toughness and Parisian Flair
At its core, this release is based on the beloved GA-2110 “CasiOak” series, renowned for its lightweight, angular case. Maison Kitsuné’s design input transforms the aesthetic with a cohesive beige and orange scheme. The muted, sandy-beige resin of the case and band provides a neutral canvas, allowing bright orange accents on the dial and index to pop without overwhelming.
The collaboration details are thoughtfully applied: the fashion house’s iconic fox logo is discreetly placed on the sub-dial, while the strap carries the “Maison Kitsuné” text branding near the buckle. It’s a design that feels more like a natural extension of the watch rather than a mere logo placement.
Engineered for Everyday Resilience
Despite its fashionable pedigree, this remains a true G-Shock. Built with Casio’s Carbon Core Guard structure, the watch maintains a shock-resistant toughness while keeping weight to a minimal 51 grams. The dimensions (48.5 × 45.4 × 11.8 mm) offer a modern, wearable presence on the wrist.
Key specs include:
- Material: Bio-based resin band, mineral glass
- Water Resistance: 200 metres – suitable for professional marine activity and serious surface water sports.
- Power: Twin SR726W batteries with an approximate three-year life.
- Accuracy: Quartz movement rated within ±15 seconds per month.
Packed with Practical Features
Beyond its looks, the GA-2110MK-5A is a fully-featured digital companion. It includes the practical suite of functions users expect from this line:
- World Time (31 time zones, 48 cities)
- 1/100-second stopwatch and countdown timer
- Five daily alarms with an hourly time signal
- Full auto-calendar pre-programmed to the year 2099
- A double LED light with selectable illumination duration (1.5 or 3 seconds)
- Hand shift feature that temporarily moves the analog hands for better digital display visibility
Availability and How to Buy
The model is currently available exclusively through the G-Shock UK online store. The listing does not provide specific timelines for wider international availability, suggesting shoppers outside the UK may need to wait for regional launches or explore import options.
Given the per-customer purchase limit and the early interest the model has attracted, prospective buyers should expect stock to move quickly. This collaboration sits at a compelling intersection of streetwear credibility, horological robustness, and designer appeal.
For those seeking a classic, solar-powered G-Shock with radio-controlled atomic timekeeping, the Casio GWM5610-1 remains a perennial bestseller on Amazon.
Whether you're a G-Shock collector, a fan of Maison Kitsuné’s aesthetic, or simply in search of a durable watch with a unique seasonal colourway, this collaboration offers a distinctive take on a modern icon. Act fast if you want to secure one.
