In a move that’s set to ignite watch collections and streetwear fits alike, Casio has just unveiled a bold, unified new colorway for its legendary G-Shock line. The new G-Shock Street Red series has been officially revealed via Casio's Japan website and its Instagram, showcasing four iconic models drenched in a saturated, matte red from head to toe. We’ve pored over the first official renders, and this coordinated drop is a serious statement piece for the wrist, slated for a December release in Japan.
Targeting the intersection of durability and high-impact style, Casio is branding these as "Iconic Styles" pieces built for streetwear and casual use. The series makes a smart play by covering a compelling cross-section of the current catalog, ensuring there’s a red-hot option for nearly every G-Shock fan. The lineup includes the classic square DW-5600, the round, triple-eye DW-6900, the large ana-digi GA-110, and the modern, octagonal GA-2100 "CasiOak."

A Unified Vision in Red and Black
The design philosophy is consistent across the board: a matte red resin case and band, matching red bezels, and dials that play with shades of red, black, and dark grey. A key stylistic choice for the digital models is the use of a negative LCD display (light numerals on a dark background). This offers a stealthier, more contemporary "street" aesthetic, though it sometimes trades a slight bit of ultimate readability for that cool factor.

Breaking Down the Street Red Lineup
- G-Shock DW-5600RRB-4: The timeless square gets a monochromatic makeover. The red square bezel frames a digital window that almost visually disappears into the case, creating a sleek, block-color effect. It retains all the rugged, 200-meter water resistance and core functions like alarm and stopwatch that made it a legend.
- G-Shock DW-6900RRB-4: This round classic maintains its distinctive three-subdial "eyes" and chunky profile. Black text on the bezel and a stark red "G" button on the side provide subtle contrast, keeping the design loyal to the original but radically re-colored.
- G-Shock GA-110RRB-4A: This is the busiest and most complex dial of the quartet. The ana-digi layout features layered red hands, red and black subdials, and clever grey inner elements that add necessary depth and prevent the watch from becoming a red blur. The familiar multi-hole resin band is present, with a standard metallic buckle for a touch of contrast.
- G-Shock GA-2100RRB-4A: Likely the headline-grabber. The hugely popular, slim "CasiOak" silhouette might be the perfect canvas for this bold color. In Street Red form, it looks more minimalist than the GA-110 but remains incredibly loud. The dial features a red sunburst-like center plate, a darker outer ring, baton markers, and the signature small subdial and digital window. Black highlights are sparingly used, letting the red dominate.
