Bull bar protector are less common now as they used to be and are usually associated with older G-Shock models.
This bull bar provides extra protection against impacts and scratches and gives the watch an extra-tough look. G-Shock watches with bull bar was popular with skateboarders and military us.

Today official bull bars are only available on some DW-5600 watches models, GD-400 models and some Baby-G watches.

These bull bars are available in black, gray, or silver, and have a PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) finish for resistance to tarnish and corrosion, these are high quality bull bars.
