About the Watch in short. Representative of the very first generation of the G-Steel line – jishoks with a steel case. The main feature of the series is the abundance of metal – the watch is perfect for both a suit and daily wear. Unlike the 100s, this model has a steel bezel, which gives the body even more power and charisma. A convenient indication in the form of three digital windows is designed to display several blocks of information at once – most of the necessary data is always on the display. The watch has a solar battery, which means it does not need to be replaced for a very long time, and is recharged from daylight. For the automatic. the time adjustment is answered by the radio synchronization function. GST-W110 also has a basic set of features – a stopwatch, timer, alarm clock and world clock.

Official Casio Description. From G-SHOCK, the watch brand that is constantly setting new standards for timekeeping toughness, comes G-STEEL, a watch series with a new “layer guard structure”.
Different materials are used for the bezel to create a two-layer structure that adds a new dimension of shock resistant. For models that use stainless steel in the upper part, shock absorbing resin is employed in the lower part. If resin is used in the upper part, fine resin is used in the lower part to cushion against impact from the upper part. This also has made it possible create a wide range of different designs.
The GST-S110 model expresses the hardness and beauty of metal.
A hand shift feature temporarily moves hands out of the way with the press of a button for easy reading of digital display contents, while double LED face illumination keeps information easy to read at all times.

A rechargeable battery with a large power storage capacity supports stable operation of various functions with high electricity consumption. You never have to worry about the battery running down because it’s a solar battery. Casio watches with solar technology, receive thermal and electrical energy that recharges the watch batteries through solar panels on the face of the watch.

MultiBand 6. Terrestrial radio wave reception from 6 transmission stations worldwide. Automatic time correction available in Japan, North America, UK, Europe and China.
— Reception is possible even when surrounded by buildings.
— Signals are received during the night to keep the displayed time exact. — Reception is possible with less than normal power consumption.
