The dial, made from anodized aluminium—a material rarely used in watchmaking—is produced in the UK.
G-SHOCK FULL METAL POLYCHROMATIC WATCH
The dial is safeguarded by a mineral glass crystal, and a screw-lock back ensures a water resistance of up to 200 m. The dimensions of the 5000 series are modest, measuring 43.2 mm x 49.3 mm x 13 mm, providing a slightly smaller profile. On the wrist, it weighs 167 g and is equipped with a stainless steel bracelet, complete with a one-touch 3-fold clasp for easy wear.

The Seiko Prospex Speedtimer 1/100 Sec Solar Chronograph Collection is driven by the cutting-edge solar-powered calibre 8A50.

The crown notably facilitates the switch between chronograph functions and standard timekeeping modes.

HAMILTON KHAKI FIELD WATCH
