Casio to Release Flare Red Models for G-SHOCK 40th Anniversary Kickoff

Evoking Solar Flares with Multicolor Laminated Bezel Featuring Phosphorescent Particles

TOKYO, Oct. 20, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced today the release of two new additions to the G-SHOCK brand of shock-resistant watches. In the runup to the G-SHOCK 40th anniversary in April 2023, Casio is looking to connect with each and every G-SHOCK fan through various activities, including releasing commemorative models and holding special events in various places around the world. Casio kicks this all off with the MTG-B3000FR and GWG-2040FR, two Flare Red anniversary models boasting the red G-SHOCK brand color in an intensely blazing solar flare design.

MTG-B3000FR and GWG-2040FR

G-SHOCK got its start with a single-page plan to construct a watch that wouldn’t break, even if dropped. It debuted in 1983 with a shock-resistant construction that overturned conventional wisdom on the fragility of wristwatches.

The 40th anniversary Flare Red models, the MTG-B3000FR and GWG-2040FR, feature multicolor laminated bezels made with phosphorescent materials in the red G-SHOCK brand color. The design evokes solar flares, the massive eruptions of intense energy from the sun’s surface. Casio used a newly developed technique to laminate carbon and colored glass fiber sheets together and hew them into bezel form. Phosphorescent particles mixed into the glass fiber sheets create powerful designs that are stunning even in the dark. The bezel of every single watch has its own unique look, since the materials present a one-of-a-kind appearance depending on where in the lamination the bezel is hewn.MTG-B3000FR and GWG-2040FR

For the GWG-2040FR, phosphorescent particles are also mixed into the forged carbon of the lugs that connect the case to the band to create random patterns of wondrous glow-in-the-dark beauty.

The logo commemorating the G-SHOCK 40th anniversary, designed by world-renowned graffiti artist Eric Haze, is engraved on the case back. These timepieces also feature four stars to signify “40,” an extra-special touch for the first wave of models to commemorate 40 years of G-SHOCK innovation.

Casio s’apprête à sortir des modèles rouges vifs pour le lancement du 40e anniversaire de G-SHOCK

Rappelant les éruptions solaires, la lunette laminée multicolore est dotée de particules phosphorescentes

TOKYO, 20 octobre 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Casio Computer Co., Ltd. a annoncé aujourd’hui la sortie de deux nouveautés de la marque de montres antichocs G-SHOCK. Pour préparer le 40e anniversaire de la marque G-SHOCK en avril 2023, Casio cherche à créer des liens avec chaque fan de G-SHOCK à travers diverses activités, notamment via la diffusion de modèles commémoratifs et la tenue d’événements spéciaux à travers le monde. Casio donne le coup d’envoi avec les montres MTG-B3000FR et GWG-2040FR, deux modèles anniversaires Flare Red arborant la couleur rouge de la marque G-SHOCK, et dont la conception rappelle une éruption solaire intense.

MTG-B3000FR and GWG-2040FR

G-SHOCK a commencé avec un plan d’une seule page pour concevoir une montre qui ne casserait pas, même en cas de chute. La marque a commencé en 1983 avec une fabrication résistante aux chocs qui a renversé les stéréotypes sur la fragilité des montres-bracelets.

Les modèles Flare Red spécial 40 ans MTG-B3000FR et GWG-2040FR disposent de lunettes multicolores stratifiées conçues avec des matériaux phosphorescents dans la couleur rouge de la marque G-SHOCK. La conception évoque les éruptions solaires, ces éruptions massives d’énergie intense provenant de la surface du soleil. Casio a utilisé une technique nouvellement développée pour stratifier ensemble des feuilles de carbone et de fibre de verre colorée et les découper en forme de lunette. Les particules phosphorescentes mélangées à l’intérieur des feuilles de fibre de verre créent des conceptions puissantes qui sont magnifiques même dans l’obscurité. La lunette de chaque montre jouit de son propre style, puisque les matériaux présentent une apparence unique selon l’endroit où la lunette est taillée dans le laminage.MTG-B3000FR and GWG-2040FR

Pour le modèle GWG-2040FR, des particules phosphorescentes sont également mélangées dans le carbone forgé des attaches qui relient le boîtier à la bande pour créer des motifs aléatoires d’une merveilleuse beauté lumineuse dans l’obscurité.

Le logo célébrant le 40e anniversaire de la marque G-SHOCK, conçu par l’artiste de la scène graffiti de renommée mondiale Eric Haze, est gravé sur le dos du boîtier. Ces montres disposent également de quatre étoiles pour signifier « 40 », une touche spéciale pour la première vague de modèles de célébration de 40 ans d’innovation G-SHOCK.

Quantexa Has Been Positioned by Chartis as a Category Leader in the KYC Solutions 2022 Market Quadrant Update and Vendor Landscape

Quantexa’s KYC Solution, part of its industry leading Decision Intelligence Platform, recognized for completeness of offering, risk scoring, customer profile enrichment, and customer onboarding

LONDON, Oct. 19, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Today Quantexa, a global data and analytics software company pioneering Contextual Decision Intelligence (CDI) and helping the world’s leading organizations and government agencies solve some of their toughest data challenges, announced that they have been recognized as a category leader in the just released 2022 Chartis KYC Solutions Market Update and Vendor Landscape report. Quantexa is being recognized as a category leader for completeness of their enterprise solution as well as market potential. The Quantexa KYC Solution was rated “best in class” for KYC risk scoring and customer profile enrichment with additional data and received an advanced ranking for customer onboarding and reporting, and dashboarding.

The Chartis KYC report is focused on the macro themes of cost saving and efficiency. Currently, KYC processes can be manual, error-prone and result in a poor experience throughout the customer lifecycle. Quantexa’s Decision Intelligence Platform transforms the approach to KYC by adding context and clarity from onboarding to exit, dynamically monitoring, and assessing customer risk and opportunity, and shifting away from manual periodic reviews to an automated, proactive process.

The platform connects internal and external data to create a single, enriched, holistic view of a customer and its control, and uncovers hidden connections between customers, counterparties and their behaviors which are often impossible to see in isolation. Along with automation and the use of AI to achieve efficiencies, the solution facilitates a continuous and informed understanding of customers for better, faster decision making throughout the customer acceptance, identification, activity monitoring, and risk management processes.

Quantexa’s positioning in the report is reflective of their customers’ proven results and is proof that adopting a contextual and perpetual approach to KYC reduces the time and costs involved for businesses. It also transforms what has become a tick-the-box exercise, back into the true purpose of understanding the risk and exposure brought on by customer activity. By increasing automation and using decision intelligence, businesses stay ahead of the volume and velocity of data related to KYC policies and processes and can free up their teams, so they have more time to concentrate on high-risk customers and value-add tasks.

Quote: Phillip Mackenzie, Senior Research Specialist, Chartis
The Chartis RiskTech Quadrant for KYC does not simply describe one technology solution as the best – rather, we use the most sophisticated ranking methodology to explain which solution would be most suitable for buyers, depending on their implementation strategies. Our research finds that Quantexa’s KYC Solution offers businesses the necessary controls to address the risks involved in using AI in their compliance programs.”

Quote: Dan Higgins, Chief Product Officer, Quantexa

“Quantexa is thrilled to be included in the Chartis KYC Market Quadrant Report, positioned very strongly amongst an esteemed list of enterprise solution providers. Traditional ongoing due diligence and periodic refreshes of KYC continue to drive cost and complexity for businesses. The increasing regulatory, budget and customer pressures demand a new way of thinking. Quantexa’s contextual approach reduces the time and cost of KYC by increasing automation, connecting non-obvious relationships, and leveraging decision intelligence for perpetual monitoring of risk. This translates into more accurate risk identification and management, lower costs, and improved customer experience. We are confident that this approach will continue to provide value to our clients and drive overall market growth for Quantexa.”
