The next move in the premium G-Shock segment is becoming clearer. According to Notebookcheck, Casio is preparing an MTG-B4000D with a metal bracelet, for launch in January. Thesports watch market could soon come alive.

What we know about the future model

According to the publication, the metal bracelet variant is aimed at the top end of the market. The name MTG-B4000D suggests an evolution of the MT-G lineage. Casio has not yet confirmed the technical data.

Clues come from retailer listings and product references. What’s more, the calendar suggests a release window in January. There’s no indication yet of price or colors, however.

The MT-G family combines steel and reinforced resin, with a shockproof architecture. As a result, we can expect the G-Shock concept to be maintained and the finish to be meticulous. Specifications to be confirmed by official announcement.

“The MTG-B4000D model with top-of-the-range metal bracelet is due to be launched in January, according to hints from retailers.”

Market context and positioning

The MT-G series is positioned between the affordable references and the MR-G line. As a result, it targets a public willing to pay for robust materials. The Casio brand is playing the discreet premium card here.

This model will appeal to those who go from the office to the weekend without changing their watch. What’s more, a launch at the beginning of the year often serves as a ramp for new products. On the other hand, a delay is possible, depending on logistics.

• Launch planned for January, according to distribution indices
• Variant with metal bracelet, positioned at the top of the range
• MT-G range with shock-proof architecture and meticulous finishes
• Likely features: Bluetooth, Tough Solar, Multiband 6
• Tip: wait for the official data sheet before making a purchase.

Design and materials

The MT-G line features a multi-layer chassis and brushed finish. A full-link bracelet should offer greater stability on the wrist. A sapphire crystal would be consistent with this positioning.

The G-Shock MTG-B4000D, with its metal bracelet, is designed for long-term wear.
Designed for urban and active use, it combines good looks and durability.

In terms of functions, the MT-G series often features Bluetooth for mobile pairing. Japanese manufacturer Casio is also banking on Tough Solar and Multiband 6 synchronization. These elements remain plausible, but the announcement will have to confirm them.

Connected functions and everyday use

Pairing via the app enables time setting and fine-tuning. This saves travelers time when changing time zones. Casio has built its mobile link on a simple, stable logic.

The solar-powered design reduces daily maintenance requirements. What’s more, a waterproof rating of around 200 m would be ideal for swimming. The final weight, however, will determine comfort over a long day.

What this means for buyers

You may want to wait before making a choice. Because this model could shift the balance of the range. Therefore, compare with the current MTG-B3000 if you hesitate. Casio should clarify dimensions, weight and package when it becomes official.

Budget remains the main unknown for the time being. Also, keep an eye on bracelet references, as rubber versions often cost less. Limited series may arrive later, with distinct finishes.

What remains to be seen are the distribution channels and the precise date. A January announcement would set the tempo for the quarter’s releases. Enthusiasts are waiting for Casio to confirm key details.
