Casio is going great guns with its G-Shock watch range, with a swathe of new designs and devices to celebrate its 40th anniversary. We’ve had G-Shocks covered in18K goldandrubies, and now there’s an MT-G series timepiece adorned with a rainbow effect.
However, the G-Shock MTG-B2000YR isn’t designed around the sky-based phenomenon, its great-looking, multi-coloured bezel represents the lights of a city at night. According to Casio, anyway.
Other coloured accents can be found on the date display, indexes and hands. The MT-G logo on the face also features a myriad of hues.

In terms of specifications, the special edition B2000 series watch is of a similar shape and featureset to its siblings in the range.
That means it comes with a dodecagonal case and the trademark G-Shock shock proofing and 20 ATM water resistance, so can be worn while swimming.
It is also solar powered using Casio’s Tough Solar technology. That enables the watch to be powered indefinitely if it gets a decent amount of light during use.
