CASIO G-SHOCK
Casio recently expanded its Master of G line with the launch
of its Desert Camouflage Series, a collection that features a new
design inspired by camouflage uniforms worn in the desert. The
series includes the MUDMAN, RANGEMAN, and MUDMASTER series,
all of which exude military toughness with black bezels, light brown
lettering and orange accents on the dials. All three watches feature
Tough Solar power – a rechargeable battery with a large power stor-
age capacity that supports the stable operation of various functions
with high electricity consumption – as well as Multiband 6 atomic
timekeeping, which enables the watch to receive time calibration ra-
dio signals from up to six transmitters worldwide. Each watch also
boasts superior water and shock resistance. Both the MUDMAN and
MUDMASTER feature mud-resistant cases and reverse LCD dis-
plays, while the RANGEMAN maintains a standard LCD display. The
MUDMAN ($350) features a Twin Sensor (compass/thermometer)
and a carbon fiber insert band, while the RANGEMAN ($450) fea-
tures a Triple Sensor (altimeter/barometer, compass and thermom-
eter) and carbon fiber insert band. The MUDMASTER ($800) has the
same Triple Sensor technology paired with a sapphire crystal.
