G-SHOCK Introduces the GRAVITYMASTER GWRB3000 Series Inspired by Supersonic Flight

Published

on

Engineered for high-speed flight conditions, the new GRAVITYMASTER series combines advanced construction, aviation-inspired design, and innovative technology for precision performance

JERSEY CITY, N.J., July 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Casio America, Inc., announces the GWRB3000 series to the G-SHOCK GRAVITYMASTER line. Featuring three distinct models (GWRB3000, GWRB3000B, and GWRB3000A), the collection draws inspiration from the immense power of jets piercing through the sonic wall, combining aviation-inspired design, advanced construction, and innovative technology to withstand the demanding forces associated with high-speed flight.

Representing a new challenge from G-SHOCK, the GRAVITYMASTER GWRB3000 series features TOUGH MVT 2 (Tough Movement Version 2), which takes signature G-SHOCK durability to the next level. Along with hybrid mount construction, auto-hand home positioning, and solar power, the movement now includes:

Shock Detection: senses strong impacts and protects against them by correcting the hand position through a full rotation to ensure constant accuracy.Magnetic Field Detection: senses strong magnetic interference and pauses hand movement until the interference passes, resuming movement to the current, accurate time.

To achieve its innovative dual hollow structure, G-SHOCK applied topology optimization, a simulation method used to determine ideal structural forms based on stress conditions. By analyzing dropping shocks, centrifugal force, and vibrations, engineers refined the design through repeated simulations to create a structure that combines a resin shock absorber with a metal protection case, delivering enhanced structural integrity while maintaining a lightweight, sophisticated design.

Every element of the new GRAVITYMASTER has been purposefully designed, from its protective construction to its carefully selected materials. The GWRB3000 series features a Carbon Core Guard structure utilizing carbon fiber-reinforced resin to protect the module while delivering enhanced durability and comfort.

The new GRAVITYMASTER features a sapphire crystal with a non-reflective coating to reduce glare and enhance readability across various environments. A super matte dial created through advanced microfabrication technology minimizes light reflection, while the in-dial solar design enables a solid dial surface without compromising power efficiency. The new GRAVITYMASTER also incorporates carbon-neutral bio-based resin components, reflecting G-SHOCK’s continued efforts to integrate more sustainable materials into its designs.

The new GRAVITYMASTER features key G-SHOCK technologies including:

Shock ResistanceTriple G Resist (Dropping Shocks, Centrifugal Force, and Vibrations)Carbon Core Guard StructureDual Hollow StructureBluetooth® ConnectivityRadio-Controlled TimekeepingTough Solar PowerShock DetectionMagnetic Field DetectionSapphire Crystal with Non-Reflective Coating

The GRAVITYMASTER GWRB3000 series is available in three distinct designs: GWRB3000 (Black IP Bezel, $880), GWRB3000B (Silver Bezel, $1,100), and GWRB3000A (Blue IP Bezel, $990). Each model showcases the collection’s aviation-inspired character through its unique bezel finish, advanced engineering, and refined design.

The G-SHOCK GRAVITYMASTER GWRB3000 Series is available today at gshock.com and at the G-SHOCK SoHo Store, as well as through select retailers nationwide.

SpeedBuilder Systems Celebrates 25 Years of Building Technology and Lasting Relationships in the P&C Insurance Industry

Published

on

By

From its beginnings with a rating solution to an integrated insurance platform, SpeedBuilder Systems marks a quarter-century of helping insurers adapt, innovate, and grow.

COLUMBIA, S.C., Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SpeedBuilder Systems, Inc. (SBS), an award-winning provider of software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions for the property and casualty (P&C) insurance industry, is celebrating its 25th anniversary, marking a quarter-century of delivering flexible insurance technology and building long-term relationships with its clients.

Founded on October 10, 2001, by Rod Giess, president of SpeedBuilder Systems, the company began with a vision and a rating solution designed to help insurers bring products to market more efficiently.

“When I started SpeedBuilder Systems, my goal wasn’t to be the biggest. It was simply to be the best at delivering quality technology that would help our clients get to market as quickly as possible,” said Giess. “I believed then, as I do today, that innovative insurance companies deserve access to sophisticated technology, regardless of their size.”

As the business developed, Giess recognized the need for a policy administration system to complement the company’s rating solution. What began as two complementary capabilities has grown into the BindExpress Suite, an integrated insurance platform supporting policy administration, rating, underwriting, billing, claims, and other core insurance operations. Designed for small to medium-sized property and casualty insurers and managing general agents (MGAs), the platform provides the flexibility to accommodate unique business requirements while supporting growth and changing market demands.

Throughout its history, SBS has maintained a consistent philosophy: technology should support an insurer’s business objectives rather than dictate how the organization operates. That approach is reflected in the company’s commitment to configurable software, long-term technology planning, and close collaboration with its clients.

“I’m very proud of how far this company has come, but what means the most to me are the relationships we’ve built along the way,” Giess continued. “Our clients have trusted us with an important part of their businesses, and we’ve never taken that responsibility lightly. I’m grateful to our clients for their continued partnership and to our team, past and present, whose dedication and hard work have brought us to this milestone.”

As SpeedBuilder Systems looks ahead, the company remains committed to helping insurers adapt to an evolving industry while maintaining greater control over their technology and business operations. The company will continue investing in its technology, strengthening client relationships, and supporting insurers as they pursue new opportunities.

About SpeedBuilder Systems

Founded in 2001, SpeedBuilder Systems, Inc. provides enterprise-class insurance software solutions for small and medium-sized property and casualty insurers and MGAs. Its BindExpress Suite® is an integrated set of components including policy administration, rating, automated underwriting, agent and consumer portals, product configuration, billing, claims, automated workflow, and document generation. The company’s AlwaysCurrent Architecture™ enables customers to tailor the system to their unique requirements while adopting future product enhancements without costly retrofitting of customized code.
