G-SHOCK GAC2500-7A – 2500 Series White Analog Watch
The G-SHOCK GAC2500-7A is a modern white analog watch from the G-SHOCK 2500 Series, inspired by the original DW-5000C. Combining minimalist white styling with legendary G-SHOCK toughness, it features a distinctive octagonal resin case, Shock Resistant construction, 200-meter water resistance, and a lightweight 47 g design.
Design Overview
The GAC2500-7A features a clean white design with a sculpted resin dial, raised bar indexes, and carefully proportioned hands for intuitive readability. Its white resin case and matching bio-based resin band create a cohesive, contemporary appearance. A dedicated small seconds subdial at 9 o'clock and the innovative Multi-Mission Date at 3 o'clock complete its distinctive fully analog display.
Inspired by the first-ever G-SHOCK, the 2500 Series embraces the design concept "Depth in Shadow," using dimensional shapes and subtle shadows to enhance the experience of reading time. Its innovative Shock Release Hand mechanism enhances impact resistance, while the analog movement developed specifically for the series is crafted at Yamagata Casio in Japan.

Innovative Technology
Multi-Mission Date
The Multi-Mission Date is one of the defining features of the G-SHOCK GAC2500-7A. Located at the 3 o'clock position, its distinctive fan-shaped, three-cell window provides multiple functions through a fully analog display.
In addition to displaying the date, the window can show stopwatch elapsed time and setting information, depending on the selected function. Its design maintains the watch's clean, minimalist appearance while keeping essential information easy to read.
The integrated full auto-calendar automatically adjusts the date according to different month lengths and leap years, eliminating the need for regular manual date corrections through the year 2099.
Shock Release Hand Technology
The GAC2500-7A features an innovative Shock Release Hand mechanism designed to improve impact resistance within its analog movement.
Rather than being directly fixed to the shaft, the minute hand is held in place using a magnetic attachment structure. This allows the hand to absorb and dissipate impacts, helping protect the movement from shocks and vibrations.
Note: Due to the magnetic attachment structure, the minute hand may shake or temporarily move out of position when subjected to impact or vibration. It is designed to return to its correct position within a few minutes.
Second Hand Sleep Function
The second hand sleep function allows the wearer to stop the small seconds subdial hand when desired. This reduces power consumption and helps extend battery life while maintaining the watch's minimalist appearance.
