There are very few watches that make us feel like we’re traversing the Milky Way on our own little rocketship, eyes mesmerized at all the colors and galaxies, minus the Omega x Swatch Bioceramic MoonSwatch Collection that was quite obviously inspired by several planets. G-Shock is one brand that doesn’t shy away from gradient colors or space themes, as the newest watch follows earlier models like the MTG-B3000PRB-1A Northern Light and the MTG-B3000FR Solar Flares. The new G-Shock Diffuse Nebula MTGB3000DN1A will quite literally have you feeling like you’re millions of miles away, floating through space, or at least taking in the Northern Lights from a cold mountain somewhere in Norway.

G-Shock Diffuse Nebula MTGB3000DN1A: Nebula aesthetics
Continuing on with the aesthetics of this new G-Shock, the stainless-steel bezel is finished with a gradation ion plating (IP) process which is what creates the gradient colors you see. The IP crown and screws are rose gold which looks slightly out of place but does add a certain warmth to the watch that some might feel is missing.

The dial and indices are treated with vapor deposition, giving them more luminosity, and the purple IP finish on the buckle and keeper brings the entire look together. The soft urethane band features multi-colored spots that echo space itself, looking as if you’re flying through one of those early-aughts desktop computer screensavers that would never stop.
