Casio Middle East has launched the Kris Fade UAE-inspired limited edition G-Shock watch.

The watch was designed by Virgin Radio Dubai DJ Kris Fade and is based on the G-Shock GD-100-1A series of watches.

It features UAE’s colours and portrays icons from the country including the Burj Khalifa and Burj Al Arab.

“I’ve always wanted to design my own watch one day and G-Shock turned my dream into a reality in no time. The Kris Fade G-Shock watch is strong, tough and is inspired by the UAE,” said Fade.

“A big thank you goes out to everyone who helped me with the design of the watch and I hope you enjoy our finished product,” he added.

The watch boasts a range of functions including a world time function showing the time in 48 cities around the world, five alarms, a stopwatch, and a countdown timer.

It also features a flash alert function that blinks the backlight with the sound of the alarm or the time-up sound of the timer, and an auto-light function which automatically illuminates the display when the user tilts the watch toward the eyes to check the time.

The face design features five round LCD windows of different sizes all arranged in a row, which give the face a three-dimensional appearance when the high brightness LED lights up. - TradeArabia News Service
