The MRG-G2000RJ-2A has a titanium case with a Cobarion bezel and Dura Soft Fluoro Rubber Band. The watch is designed in the image of the Jyuryoku Maru, an original traditional Japanese sword created exclusively for G-Shock and created with an MR-G motif.

Each bezel is carved individually from a solid block of metal. The deep violet Arc Ion Plating (AIP) on the bezel is harder than a diamond-like carbon (DLC) treatment and gives the metal a traditional Japanese cassius purple finish.

 MR-G original Japanese sword JYURYOKU MARU

A sword-like letter opener created by swordsmith Teruhira Kamiyama and engraved with his name is included in the box set and includes a certificate of authenticity from the All Japan Swordsmith Association. The characters for “Jyuryoku” (meaning “gravity”) are hand engraved on the case back by Teruhira Kamiyama using the same method as names engraved into the blades of swords.

The latest model showcases the MR-G line’s signature features to give it a tough, yet sleek design that can elevate any winter look. It has an all- titanium case, back cover and clasp which have undergone a deep-hardening treatment to make it five times harder than regular titanium. It also has a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with an inner coating, which enhances its overall clarity and readability.

 Tradition and innovation, one-of-a-kind dignity.

The MRGG200RJ-2A bezel is created from Murasaki-gane metal and COBARION®, premium materials that make the bezel two or three times stronger than stainless steel. The deep violet Arc Ion Plating (AIP) also gives the metal a mirror-like, purple finish to complete its sleek style. In addition, the new watch offers G-SHOCK’s three-way time sync for accurate time keeping.

Special specifications that embody the skill 
of artisans who created these watches.

The symbol of strength. Case back

The characters Jyuryoku are hand engraved on the back covers of the watches by swordsmith Teruhira Kamiyama (who also had a role in crafting the JYURYOKU MARU) using the same technique as that employed for engraving names into the blades of Japanese swords. Jyuryoku means "gravity", which is the meaning of the "G" in both G-SHOCK and MR-G.

About G-SHOCK
CASIO’s shock-resistant G-SHOCK watch is synonymous with toughness, born from the developer Mr. Ibe’s dream of ‘creating a watch that never breaks’. Over 200 handmade samples were created and tested to destruction until finally in 1983 the first, now iconic G-SHOCK hit the streets of Japan and began to establish itself as ‘the toughest watch of all time’. Each watch encompasses the 7 elements; electric shock resistance, gravity resistance, low temperature resistance, vibration resistance, water resistance, shock resistance and toughness. The watch is packed with Casio innovations and technologies to prevent it from suffering direct shock; this includes internal components protected with urethane and suspended timekeeping modules inside the watch structure. Since its launch, G-SHOCK has continued to evolve, continuing to support on Mr. Ibe’s mantra “never, never give up”.
