The Heritage
The strap for this watch is made to measure
On the Casio G-Shock 6900 the bracelet is drawn as part of the case: no catalogue strap will fit. In the atelier we take the measurements on the watch itself and build the strap on the piece — that is the work of Casati Milano.

Can you fit a standard strap on the Casio G-Shock 6900 GD-X6900FB-1?
No, the lug attachment is an integral part of the case and its shock-absorption system. A standard strap will not fit. The solution is to commission a custom-built strap constructed directly on your watch through <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>.
How is a custom strap made for this model?
Casati Milano's atelier operates in three phases: precise measurement of the lug geometry directly on your watch, collaborative selection of leather and finishing, and final construction and assembly of the strap onto the case. It is a bespoke mechanical tailoring operation, not a simple replacement.
Which leather suits the character of the G-Shock 6900 GD-X6900FB-1?
Robust, raw leathers such as Horween Chromexcel, Tuscan Buttero, or aged vegetable-tanned hides amplify the model's raw, anti-establishment aesthetic. Irregular grain and rough texture create a compelling visual contrast with the geometric precision of the resin case, reflecting Absolute Toughness philosophy.
How long does a well-crafted custom strap last?
A strap realised through sartorial method and quality leathers develops patina and form memory over time, improving with wear. Durability depends on material choice and maintenance, but a bespoke work is engineered to accompany your watch for the long term.
Why has the G-Shock 6900 become a global icon since 1983?
Because it broke conventional watchmaking paradigm by uniting extreme durability, chronometric precision, and anti-establishment design in an accessible object. The squared three-dial silhouette and shock resistance made it a symbol of urban subcultures, from Japanese punk to international streetwear, transforming it into an icon transcending mere timekeeping.
