This month, in Japan, Casio will release three new G-Steel variations, that are significantly smaller than the previous models.

The all-new G-Steel GST-B600 measures 42.3 mm x 11.4 mm (41.4 mm lug-to-lug), which is 5.2 mm less in diameter, 6.6 mm less in lug-to-lug length, and still remarkably thin. It weighs a scant 60 grams on a rubber strap and 135 grams with a full metal bracelet.

While the existing full-size G-Steel models are not massive (and wear well) — these new dimensions will make the watch even more comfortable, and fit more wrists. It’ll likely look even better on your wrist than past models too.

Starting at an estimated $299 (with a $50 premium for a metal bracelet), the G-Steel is sure to be a hot item in the US, when it presumably arrives later this year. The price, size, analog-digital display, solar quartz movement, and Bluetooth time syncing should appeal to a broad range of consumers.

The GST-B600A-1A6JF is 46,200 yen – strap (converts to $307), GST-B600D-1AJF – bracelet 51,700 yen (converts to $342), GST-B600-1AJF – strap 44,000 yen (converts to $292).
