Casio has unveiled a G-Shock x Toyota Gazoo Racing GA-2100 limited edition that commemorates driver Takamoto Katsuta's first WRC victory at the Safari Rally Kenya 2026. The watch goes on sale in Japan on May 28 — the opening day of the FIA World Rally Championship's Rally Japan event in Aichi Prefecture. No pricing has been disclosed, and there is no confirmed rollout for the US or UK.

The look

The design is almost entirely black: case, strap, and dial share the same matte finish, with the Gazoo Racing logo rendered in silver and matching hands. The only color break is a red day-of-week indicator on a sub-display near the 9 o'clock position — a deliberate nod to racing livery without overdoing it.

What it does

The GA-2100 base is a well-established G-Shock platform that pairs an analog dial with a small digital readout. Specs include 31 time zones, 12/24-hour formats, a 1/100-second stopwatch, countdown timer, five daily alarms, dual LED backlight, auto-calendar, and 200-meter water resistance — all standard for the line, per G-Central.

Japan only, for now

The watch will be available at the Rally Japan venue itself, at Mitsui Outlet Park Okazaki, and via Rakuten online. That's a narrow launch window — and a familiar pattern. Previous G-Shock collaborations, including the Morizo DW-5600 (a Toyota collab), stayed Japan-exclusive and later surfaced on the secondary market at multiples of retail. The Land Cruiser GWGB1000TLC1 did reach the US at $970, showing that some motorsport tie-ups do travel west eventually, but Casio has made no such announcement here.

Anyone outside Japan interested in the Gazoo Racing GA-2100 should watch for grey-market listings — or wait to see whether Casio schedules a wider drop later in 2026. As Notebookcheck reports, this collab is also separate from the Casio Edifice x Toyota Gazoo Racing partnership announced in January 2026, so both lines are running in parallel.
