September 26, 2005, Tokyo, Japan -- CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD. announced
the release of the latest additions to the Baby-G line with the BG-62
and BG-71 models. These new offerings—six models in all—are
based on the concept of “a bright glow through ice and snow,”
a slight variation on the standard tough and cute Baby-G image. While
evocative of winter, these watches keep you looking cool yet feeling
warm all year around, and are appropriate for a day of fun with friends
or a romantic night out with that special someone.
The
Baby-G was first created as the women’s version of Casio’s
popular G-SHOCK series of watches. With shock-resistant construction
and water-resistance, the reliability of the Baby-G series became
the watch of choice for the world’s top female surfers and body
boarders. The Baby-G brand then found a huge following among fun-loving
girls in their teens and twenties. The new ice and snow themed Baby-G
softens the bright sunlight of the Baby-G image and transforms it
into the romantic and warm glow of northern climes.
These latest additions to the Baby-G family have a color
scheme reminiscent of a soft winter landscape. The BG-62
comes in light blue, pink, and white versions—the
white BG-62 watch face has a mother-of-pearl pattern that,
like a gently glowing aurora, changes colors depending on
the angle it is viewed from. The BG-62 models have three
LCD dials that display day, date, and time. The BG-71 models
feature an LCD mode indicator and unique watch face displays.
All models feature a full-face color LCD with two watch
hands and pearl finish semi-transparent resin bands in addition
to the all the functions Baby-G fans have come to expect
from their favorite watch, including World Time, a full
auto calendar, and LED light with afterglow.
The
romantic new ice and snow inspired series is a soft, feminine, and
refined addition to the Baby-G lineup. Even with the wintry theme,
these timepieces exude a warm glow that compliments and accentuates
the tender gentility of the young women who make this watch their
very own. |
