G-Shock Full Metal Watch Digital Dial Gold-Tone Steel Bracelet, 49.3mm
We mark this anniversary with the GMWB5000PG — an addition to the line of GMWB5000 full-metal takes on the very first G-SHOCK, the DW5000, which debuted 40 years ago in April 1983. The limited-edition timepiece is clad in recrystallized and deep-layer hardened stainless steel developed with this run in mind.
Following recrystallization and deep-layer hardening, the bezel and band are treated with gold ion plating and the screw-lock case back with DLC coating for a bold, radiant look. In a special nod to the DW5000, the dial features the phrase “SINCE 1983.”
The case back is engraved with the Eric Haze-designed 40th logo, and the lower left button is engraved with a star, for a timepiece that crystallizes the G-SHOCK 40th anniversary celebration.
*The stainless steel is processed into components and then recrystallized, yielding unique differences in crystalline grain. This makes the pattern, color tone, and luster differ subtly from part to part.

Give your watch a quick check on a regular basis, wiping down the face and bracelet with a soft cloth, checking the leather on a strap, and making sure that the strap or bracelet is firmly attached to the watch face. Also, while many watches are water resistant, few are truly waterproof, so if you find that moisture or dust has penetrated the case of your watch, bring it into your local Ben Bridge store where we can have one of our watchmakers clean it out for you.
Our best advice on watch maintenance is to never attempt do-it-yourself repairs, no matter how handy you are or how good the instructions are on Youtube. Watches are super complex little machines and only an expert watchmaker should be trusted to get a watch back into working condition. Attempts by an untrained repair person may seriously damage the watch and can even invalidate factory warranties.
In general, having your watch checked regularly by your Personal Jeweler or watchmaker and serviced according to the manufacturer's guidelines should keep it in excellent shape.
