Casio G-Shock GM-2110D-2AER Blue Dial Bracelet Watch - W17463
Ref. GM-2110D-2AER
Sits in Casio’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Casio watches we list, which start at £25.
Price range £25 to £919 across 129 Casio watches in stock.The GM-2110D sits within what collectors have taken to calling the CasiOak family — a line of analogue-digital G-Shocks whose octagonal case geometry borrows a clear visual language from the luxury sports watch world, then builds it at a fraction of the weight and with 200m of water resistance behind it. The GM-2110D is the bracelet version of that proposition, trading the resin strap of the base GM-2100 for a brushed stainless steel construction throughout. At 44.4mm it reads as a substantial watch, but the 11.8mm thickness — unusually restrained for an analogue-digital G-Shock carrying this much function — keeps it from stacking high on the wrist, and the angled octagonal case lines direct the eye outward rather than upward. The sky-blue metallic dial catches light differently as the wrist moves, shifting between a muted slate and something closer to pale steel depending on the angle. At 146 grams the bracelet version has a presence the resin models simply do not, though it is worth knowing that link removal is done via split-pins rather than a tool-free system. The hands carry Neobrite lume for low-light reading, and when that falls short, a double LED backlight floods both the analogue dial and the digital window simultaneously — a practical detail for a watch rated to this depth.

Learn more about Casio
Tadao Kashio founded Kashio Seisakujo in Tokyo in 1946 as a machine shop. The company's first success was a finger ring that held a cigarette, and its second was the 14-A of 1957 — the world's first all-electric compact calculator, which used solenoids rather than gears.
Casio entered watchmaking in 1974 with the Casiotron, a digital watch with an automatic calendar that knew the varying lengths of months. The company approached watches as an electronics manufacturer rather than a horological one, and that difference produced the G-Shock.
The G-Shock came from a single engineer, Kikuo Ibe, who broke a watch his father had given him and set out to build one that could not break. The specification was three tens: survive a ten-metre drop, ten bars of water pressure, and ten years of battery life. It took over two hundred prototypes, and the solution was suspending the module inside the case on a cushioned internal structure rather than mounting it rigidly. The DW-5000C shipped in 1983.
It became one of the most durable product designs in any category, adopted by militaries, emergency services, and skateboarders alike, and Casio has since added solar charging, radio and GPS timekeeping, Bluetooth, and full-metal and carbon variants.
Casio also produces the Edifice, Pro Trek, and Oceanus lines, and remains an independent Japanese public company.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Yes. At 200m it is rated for swimming, snorkelling and recreational diving.
Will the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
What size strap does it take?
18mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Will it fit my wrist?
Lug-to-lug is 49.3mm, which suits wrists from roughly 16.5cm (6½ inches) upward.
Lug-to-lug decides fit more than case diameter does.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
