FROGMAN

From the G-SHOCK Master of G Series of timepieces that relentlessly challenge the limits of timepiece toughness comes two new additions to the FROGMAN lineup of watches designed for underwater work and activities. Virtually everything about these new models is an improvement over previous models. FROGMAN is a lineup of shock-resistant diver's watches that meet ISO standards for diving at depths up to 200 meters. Its horizontally asymmetrical form is designed to keep the watch from interfering with normal wrist movement.

These are the first Triple Sensor FROGMAN models, which provide depth, bearing, and temperature readings, and respond directly to the needs of professionals involved in sea rescue. New FROGMAN-specific sensors were developed to enable depth readings up to 80 meters, which is a greater depth than that allowed for diving activities. Readings are now produced in 10 cm units, for higher sensitivity and greater accuracy.

The compass function has also been greatly improved for these models. A new auto level correction function for the compass allows direction readings regardless of your wrist angle. This makes it possible to be kept up to date with your orientation even when diving among mud stirred up from the ocean floor or under other conditions where the water is murky with limited visibility. An additional button that is newly added at 9 o'clock triggers a Time Stamp function that records the current time, along with your depth and the water temperature. These watches have been designed and engineered to provide ultimate support for every diving experience. 

The surface of the thick stainless steel case that can stand up to high water pressures is Salaz policed and then treated with a high abrasion resistant diamond-like coating. The screw on back cover provides very high sealing. The back cover is also stamped with a frog character armed with everything necessary for diving the deep.

The sapphire crystals of these watches have a 2.8 mm anti-reflective coating that is thicker than the coating used for other watches. This improves readability and durability, as well as high water pressure resistance. Other diver-oriented features include large buttons that can be easily operated while wearing gloves, high-brightness LED illumination for better viewing under dark conditions, and a, carbon fiber insert urethane band that can be slipped on or off over a diving suit.

In addition to diving level water resistance, the specs of these watches also meet the needs of those involved in rescue work. The products of two years of research and development, these new FROGMAN models are carefully designed and engineered for the tough individuals whose work and activities take them into the teeth of some of the toughest conditions imaginable.
