GM-5600RI20
Ryo Ishikawa
Ishikawa is one of the leading professional golfers in the Japanese men's golf world, having won 17 tour tournaments in the past. Ishikawa's challenging spirit, which leads him to set high goals and expand his horizons globally, is in line with our corporate philosophy of creating new value globally, and we have had an affiliation contract with him since 2013.
The GM-5600RI20 is a long-awaited collaboration model with Ishikawa, who has been a long-time collaborator. Emblematic of Ishikawa's strength and passion for golf, the band features the message "WITH HEART AND SOUL," an English translation of his motto, "Ichii Devotion." The keeper ring features 17 stars, symbolizing the number of tour victories he has achieved. The base model is the GM-5600, featuring a minimalist design with a square face and a silver metal bezel. Ishikawa's signature is engraved on the case back, and the EL backlight adds a playful touch, revealing an illustration on the sun visor when activated.

Regarding this collaboration model, Ishikawa commented, "I came across "With Heart and Soul" in a Casio electronic dictionary when I was in high school, and it is a phrase that I have held dear ever since. It means moving forward on the path you believe in without being swayed, and maintaining a strong heart, and it also links with the toughness of "G-SHOCK," which has seen us overcome so many matches together, so I believe it will reach everyone's hearts."
Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price: ¥27,500 (tax included)
