SlingShox was created in line with three company passion points \u2013 Quality, Value and Art. SlingShox created this interchangeable accessory to enhance the look and feel of your G-Shock while being careful not to jeopardize the quality and high-performance of the watch.<\/p>\n

The new accessory line allows you to transform the look of your watch in just a few simple steps.

The SlingShox strap has an opening on the back of the band where the G-Shock bezel fits easily that still allows for complete and uninhibited use of the G-Shock pusher controls.<\/p>\n

The band provides a fresh new pop of color for your watch and feels even more comfortable on your wrist. The unique colors and personalized design options are a nod to the individuality of the trendsetting G-Shock owner that connects fashion, art and personal style in ways never before seen in watch accessories.
