Held at the G-SHOCK Exclusive Store on Linking Road, Santacruz West, the gathering featured conversations, collection showcases and interactions focused on G-SHOCK’s heritage and timepieces. The event provided members of the community with an opportunity to connect over their shared appreciation for the brand and its evolution.
A major highlight was a special showcase by four G-SHOCK collectors, who presented selections from their personal collections and shared the stories and significance behind their timepieces. The showcase gave attendees a closer look at the personal connections and experiences associated with collections that have grown alongside the brand.
The event also featured Junichi Izumi, creator of the GA-2100 series, who interacted with members of the G-SHOCK community and shared insights into the design journey behind the GA-2100, one of G-SHOCK’s most recognisable series. His participation gave collectors and enthusiasts an opportunity to hear directly from the creative mind behind the series and gain a deeper understanding of the design thinking and philosophy that shaped it.
Commenting on the occasion, Takuto Kimura, Managing Director, Casio India, said, “G-SHOCK has grown into a global community united by a shared appreciation for individuality, creativity and innovation. India has been an important part of that journey, with collectors and enthusiasts embracing the brand and making it their own.

Sharing his thoughts on the occasion, Junichi Izumi, Creator of the GA-2100 Series, said, “The GA-2100 was developed as a new expression of the G-SHOCK identity while staying true to the strength and character of the brand. It has been very rewarding to see how collectors and enthusiasts around the world have connected with the series and made it their own. Meeting the G-SHOCK community in India and hearing their stories and perspectives has been a very special experience, and I am happy to be part of this gathering.”
