'There is No Planet B' by Jahan Loh x G-SHOCK SG

Fast forward to 2069. What happens to the world then?

G-SHOCK Singapore has partnered with local contemporary artist, Jahan Loh to create an animated video that takes us to a future era of 2069 and how he would have perceived the state of the world.

Climate change has been the buzzword in recent years and come 2069, the world might be in dire straits should there be inadequate efforts by all to deal with the impending world crisis.

Coined “There is No Planet B”, this video is an extension of Jahan’s latest art series titled “Intergalactic Dreams” and it is a strong resonance of the adverse effects that climate change has on mankind. Jahan envisions that in the future, resources on planet earth can no longer sustain mankind and space reconnaissance troopers are dispatched to explore alternative suitable planets to inhabit.

In the video, the muse spaceman is on Planet M30 in the Sagittarius Dwarf Spherodical Galaxy- 70,000 light years from Planet Earth and he is seen trying to get back to his ship. On his wrist is the new metal-forged G-SHOCK GM-6900.

The New Metal-Forged GM-6900
This year marks the 25th anniversary of the iconic G-SHOCK DW-6900-1V, which was first released in February 1995. To commemorate this special occasion, Casio has decided to add new members to the G-SHOCK family called the GM-6900 series and featuring all-new metal bezels.

The three new GM-6900 models enshrine the hallmarks of G-SHOCK’s toughness in the all new metal bezel. The 6900 bezel bears the iconic shape of the original DW-6900 but this time, the new GM-6900 has upped the toughness ante with button guards. After a shaping process that involves approximately 20 forging stages and several cutting and polishing steps, each piece is carefully finished to achieve the characteristic 6900 bezel in metal.

The two models with black bands provide a choice of silver or gold bezels, while the red translucent band model features a black bezel. Shiny mirror and matte hairline finishes are combined in a bold bezel shape.
