Features
Introducing G-SHOCK timepieces as nature-minded as you, made with renewable materials and a focus on sustainability.
We begin with the iconic shape of the GMD-S5600, but in a smaller, slimmer design. Then, we make the key resin components with bio-based resin produced from renewable organic resources, which are expected to help curb CO2 emissions and reduce environmental impact.
We take the focus on nature to the next level with very special cloth bands that feature the work of two innovators — TRUECOTTON and FOOD TEXTILE — to reduce waste and promote ethical sourcing.
The cloth for the bands is made of traceable organic TRUECOTTON so we know which farm and spinning mill it comes from. This not only helps manage environmental impact, but also ensures workers are protected and craftsmanship is high quality throughout the production process.
The bands are colored with dyes from FOOD TEXTILE, a project to reuse food that would otherwise be discarded to create natural dyes. Soft, earthy colors are brought to life with dyes made with over 90% natural ingredients. The gentle blue grey hue of the GMD-S5600CT-3 band is achieved with a dye extracted from red turnip, while the GMD-S5600CT-4 band is colored with a dye extracted from sakura cherry blossoms, for a soft pearl pink color.
Materials that had been destined for the trash are reborn in a beautiful new form — a sustainable, environmentally friendly watch.

Bands in gentle colors derived from nature
The cloth bands undergo a coloring process using FOOD TEXTILE dyes extracted from food waste and plants that would otherwise have been discarded. Red turnip (GMD-S5600CT-3) and sakura cherry blossom (GMD-S5600CT-4) are just two of these original dyes. The soft pastel tones add gentle color to your nature-minded lifestyle.
*Variations in density and coloration in the natural fibres give the bands a distinctive texture and color.
A brand of a fashion industry project focusing on reusing food waste to produce original dyes and providing threads and fabrics colored using these dyes. The project supports a sustainable lifestyle with the concept of “breathing new life into what would otherwise go to waste.”
Band material ensures a comfortable fit
The cloth band is crafted from finely woven fabric, using traceable organic TRUECOTTON, a material recognized for its ethical sourcing. The band, accented with a metal buckle and band loops, provides a smooth, comfortable fit on the wrist.
*Variations in density and coloration in the natural fibres give the bands a distinctive texture and color.
Traceable organic cotton made at farms and spinning mills that can be specifically identified, providing assurance that it is produced under strict quality controls. Appropriate manufacturing oversight means products that make both the end user and the producer happy.
Attention to materials: Bio-based resin
The bezel is made with bio-based resin. Produced using renewable organic resources, this material is expected to help reduce environmental impact.

Compact and slim
Starting with the DW-5600, modelled after the shape of the very first G-SHOCK, we made these watches even slimmer and smaller to ensure a better fit on the wrist and make this popular, iconic design easy to add to your wardrobe.
