High gloss white bodies with evergreen accents add personality to the Go Green Project. Both GR7900EW-7 and G6900EW-7 feature advanced Self-Charging, Tough Solar Power technology in which a tiny, solar panel in the watch face combined with a large-capacity rechargeable battery enables a variety of energy-hungry functions to operate smoothly by both natural and artificial light. The result is an impressive solar timepiece that assures reliable timekeeping and greatly reduces the need for battery change. With its Shock Resistant construction and unmatched solar power function, the Go Green Project provides an accessory that embraces the philosophy of reduce, re-use recycle.

“We are thrilled to expand our Go Green Collection,” said Shigenori Itoh, Vice President of Casio’s Timepiece Division. “G-Shock and Casio as a whole has a commitment to preserving our environment for our future generations. The Go Green timepieces offer our consumers an environmentally sound and fashion forward accessory.”
