Features

Limited to 700 worldwide; FROGMAN 30th Anniversary

Celebrate two anniversaries in premium style with a limited-edition MR-G FROGMAN that marks the G-SHOCK 40th and the FROGMAN 30th anniversary.

The timepiece comes with both a Dura Soft fluoro rubber band in the limited-edition yellow used for the original FROGMAN model and a striking bracelet-type band in titanium. Easily swap out the band using the dedicated mounting tool that comes with the set to remove the side pins while pressing the buttons on the lugs' undersides.

Raised index marks are carefully hand-painted with a generous layer of glow-in-the-dark yellow paint for the outstanding visibility you need underwater. The screw-lock case back, fit with sapphire crystal finished in gold vapor deposition, is engraved with the iconic FROGMAN diving frog character.

This 30th anniversary model is based on the MRG-BF1000, a premium, full-metal G-SHOCK MR-G timepiece for the sea. Titanium-clad, airtight with ISO 200-meter water resistance, the MRG-BF1000E joins the FROGMAN family of full-fledged diver’s watches with meticulous attention to detailed perfection. Its unique asymmetrical design, screw-lock case back and distinctive diving frog character — which were so popular when FROGMAN came out back in 1993 — take the diver’s watch to a whole new level.

The resin originally used for the complex design of the first FROGMAN is replaced with titanium. Each component is crafted separately and polished meticulously to bring luxe MR-G quality to the FROGMAN line of diver's watches. Pure titanium is treated with a deep-layer hardening process, DLC coating and gold-colored ion plating for even greater strength. An intricate combination of over 70 exterior components, the case includes an O-ring waterproof seal to deliver outstanding FROGMAN water resistance and special buffers to strengthen the shock-resistant structure. For enhanced strength, we’ve developed a protective structure with fluoro rubber buffers installed between the multiple bezel parts. This structure features face-guarding functionality that helps to absorb shocks from the front and the sides, as well as protecting the crystal — all while maintaining the beauty in form of the MR-G line.
