    Exclamation GShocks with stainless steel case/bracelet (NO TITANIUM!) ??

    Are there any GShocks (other than Edifice line) that feature full stainless steel case/body?

    I've seen pics of some black PVD coated Aviator series online but not sure if they are simply resin underneath or actual steel


    I like this one too (lack of atomic is not a deal breaker for me after owning several automatics). But not sure if the body is resin though.


    Or the MTG line but clearly out of my budget at $600+:


    Any others?

    Thanks!

    Unfortunately all of them have resin cases underneath.

    Take a look at the Giez series, but those models are hard to get and quite expensive:

    GS-1300M:



    GS-1200M:




    Both have stainless steel cases and bracelets (but with some plastic pieces in it as you can see on the last picture).
    Please excuse my imperfect English :)

    If you like (or at least don't mind) vintage here are two. Came out in the early '00's . The DW-5000 BL-2 and the DW-5700D-8. Both have stainless bracelets and screwdown casebacks. Happy Hunting -Ronbo

    There's the DW/GW-5000 screwback re-issues of the classic screwback models from the 80s like the DW-5000SL "Spike Lee":


    And the Frogman models with either steel or Ti cases:


    But they all have resin over their metal cases. There's also the current MRG-line (all analogue or ana-digi) or the vintage MRG models. If you're looking for a cheap steel cased digital - take a look at the EFD-1000 Edifice - recently discontinued but should still be fairly easy to get:


    I think there was also a bracelet version - the lugs are 22mm.

    cheers, Sedi
