Free delivery in Singapore.\n\n  TRUST GRID: 3-tile (resin band — Strap Adjustment tile removed).\n  SPEC SOURCE: casio.com\/sg product page for GMC-2500-1A8 (module 5757).\n  NOTE 1: Casio SG lists this as COMING SOON 11\/2026, not in stock.\n  NOTE 2: Casio states no dial colour in the spec table, and its image alt text\n  (\"Silver\") is IDENTICAL to the GMC-2500-1A. The two pages are near-duplicates\n  until the dial colours are supplied. Copy describes a brass dial without naming\n  its colour.\n  NOTE 3: Casio warns that some units carry an INCORRECT PRODUCT TAG listing a\n  Daily Alarm. This model has NO daily alarm. Copy and FAQ reflect the correct\n  specification — do not add an alarm claim. See handover note.\n  Accent colour: #0A3282 (Casio corporate blue), matched to the other Casio builds.\n--\u003e\n\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n  .cc-pdp { font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, sans-serif; color: #1a1a1a; line-height: 1.7; }\n  .cc-pdp *, .cc-pdp *::before, .cc-pdp *::after { box-sizing: border-box; }\n  .cc-section { margin: 32px 0; padding: 0; }\n  .cc-section + .cc-section { border-top: 1px solid #e8e8e8; padding-top: 28px; }\n  .cc-pdp h2 { font-size: 11px !important; font-weight: 600 !important; letter-spacing: 0.14em !important; text-transform: uppercase !important; color: #0A3282 !important; margin: 0 0 14px 0 !important; padding: 0 !important; border: none !important; }\n  .cc-pdp p { font-size: 14.5px; color: #555; margin: 0 0 12px 0; }\n  .cc-glance { display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 1fr); gap: 10px; list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; }\n  @media (min-width: 600px) { .cc-glance { grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr); } }\n  .cc-glance li { background: #f0f4f8; border-radius: 6px; padding: 12px 14px; font-size: 13.5px; color: #555; margin: 0; }\n  .cc-glance li strong { display: block; font-size: 10px; font-weight: 600; letter-spacing: 0.06em; text-transform: uppercase; color: #1e3a5f; margin-bottom: 3px; }\n  .cc-benefits { list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; }\n  .cc-benefits li { position: relative; padding-left: 18px; font-size: 14.5px; color: #555; margin: 0 0 10px 0; line-height: 1.6; }\n  .cc-benefits li::before { content: ''; position: absolute; left: 0; top: 9px; width: 7px; height: 7px; border-radius: 50%; background: #0A3282; }\n  .cc-tags { display: flex; flex-wrap: wrap; gap: 8px; padding: 0; margin: 0; list-style: none; }\n  .cc-tags li { background: #fff; border: 1px solid #e8e8e8; border-radius: 20px; padding: 7px 16px; font-size: 13px; color: #555; margin: 0; }\n  .cc-tags--dark li { background: #0b1d3a; border-color: #0b1d3a; color: #fff; }\n  .cc-spec-summary { background: #f0f4f8; border-radius: 6px; padding: 20px 22px; font-size: 14px; color: #555; line-height: 1.75; margin: 0 0 20px 0; }\n  .cc-spec-table { width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin-bottom: 8px; }\n  .cc-spec-table caption { text-align: left; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 600; color: #0b1d3a; padding: 16px 0 8px 0; }\n  .cc-spec-table tr { border-bottom: 1px solid #e8e8e8; }\n  .cc-spec-table td { padding: 10px 0; font-size: 13.5px; vertical-align: top; }\n  .cc-spec-table td:first-child { color: #555; width: 42%; padding-right: 12px; }\n  .cc-spec-table td:last-child { color: #1a1a1a; font-weight: 500; }\n  .cc-faq { border-top: 1px solid #e8e8e8; }\n  .cc-faq-item { border-bottom: 1px solid #e8e8e8; padding: 16px 0; }\n  .cc-faq-q { font-size: 14.5px; font-weight: 600; color: #0b1d3a; margin: 0 0 8px 0; }\n  .cc-faq-a { font-size: 14px; color: #555; line-height: 1.7; margin: 0; }\n  .cc-trust { display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(2, 1fr); gap: 12px; list-style: none; padding: 0; margin: 0; }\n  @media (min-width: 600px) { .cc-trust { grid-template-columns: repeat(3, 1fr); } }\n  .cc-trust li { text-align: center; padding: 20px 10px; background: #fff; border: 1px solid #e8e8e8; border-radius: 6px; margin: 0; }\n  .cc-trust li strong { display: block; font-size: 13.5px; color: #0b1d3a; margin-bottom: 4px; }\n  .cc-trust li span { font-size: 12px; color: #555; }\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"cc-pdp\"\u003e\n\n  \u003c!-- PRODUCT OVERVIEW --\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"cc-section\"\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eG-SHOCK GMC-2500-1A8DR\u003c\/strong\u003e is G-SHOCK stripped back to reading the time.

The case measures 46.7 × 43.8 × 12.9mm and weighs 68 grams, with mineral glass, Neobrite luminous treatment and a bio-based resin band adjustable from 145mm to 215mm, built to shock-resistant construction and rated to 200 metres of water resistance. The minute hand is a magnetically attached Shock Release Hand that absorbs impact, and the module adds a hand shift feature, a seconds hand sleep function, a 30-minute stopwatch and an amber LED light.

Casio calls it the Shock Release Hand: the minute hand is held by magnetic force rather than fixed, so on impact it gives way and absorbs the force instead of taking it. It may shift briefly and then return to its correct position.
