Known by many as "the toughest watch on the planet," G-SHOCK has built its reputation on crafting timepieces that are as rugged as they are reliable. One of their latest watches, the GSTB100X-1A, is the first timepiece in the G-STEEL connected lineup that's been outfitted with a carbon bezel—the product of state-of-the-art materials and innovative technology. The solar-powered watch is equipped with Bluetooth, allowing you to connect it to the G-SHOCK smartphone app at the press of a button. What's more, the hardwearing timepiece is the kind of watch you can wear in almost any occasion. It's cool and comfortable but the stealth all-black styling ensures you look and feel put together. Here are three ways we'd wear it this summer.

At the Office

At the
Office

Anything but dainty, this isn't a dress watch but the sleek monochromatic styling works with an office-appropriate wardrobe. Especially a more casual summer kit like a knit polo and some lightweight chinos.
