October
13, 2005, Tokyo, Japan -- CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD. announced the release
of the latest additions to the G-SHOCK line up with the G-300KRT,
the first Kawasaki Racing Team themed analog-digital combination timepieces.
G-SHOCK is a proud sponsor of the Moto GP Kawasaki Racing Team. These
new offerings combine classic G-SHOCK toughness with the adrenaline-pumping
action and thrills of Motorcycle Grand Prix (MotoGP), the world’s
premier professional motorcycle competition. The combination of kindred
spirits G-SHOCK and MotoGP result in a watch that is ideal for young
men who have a passion for motor sports and live life on the edge.
G-SHOCK
built its reputation on toughness, durability, and water resistance
since its introduction 22 years ago. Because of its ability to withstand
extreme shocks, G-SHOCK has been supporting extreme and motor sports
enthusiasts for years, appealing to those who push themselves to the
limit—and who demand the same from their timepieces. This addition
to the G-300 series is a perfect match between MotoGP’s extreme
challenge and G-SHOCK’s extreme durability in standing up to
challenges.
The
two new G-300KRT Kawasaki Racing Team watches are designed especially
for MotoGP fans. Incorporating the official team color scheme into
the watch design, the G-300KRT sports Kawasaki lime green on watchband
or case, depending on the version, for an exclusive look. Both watches
feature the Kawasaki Racing Team logo on the back case and band ring.
In addition to the analog and digital combination watch face, G-300
functionality includes backlight with afterglow and World Time. Each
model comes with collector’s cards that profile the Kawasaki
Racing Team machines and its riders.
The new G-300KRT Kawasaki Racing Team models offer motor sports fans
the opportunity to experience both the extreme toughness of the G-SHOCK
as well as the excitement of MotoGP action, all in one sporty and
collectible package. |
