Looking for something exclusive – try being one of only five Australians with this watch

G-Shock watches are collected and traded by their fans on a daily basis.  From limited edition colour schemes, to rare originals; there are people with a passion for G-Shock that borders on obsession.  So, with a new limited edition G-Shock coming next month, we’re expecting some passions to hit extreme.

In late March Casio announced the limited edition MT-G G-Shock watch, this beauty has a vintage feel with brass accents.

The brass-look is created by first having a black ion plating with a gold ion plating then layered on top – the top layer is then lightly brushed away to give a worn appearance and vintage look.

With a metal exterior, there’s a special feel to the MT-G line, as well as an outstanding shock-resistance

So – what makes this so extreme?  Only 500 have been made.

In Australia – just five will be sold. 

Exact availability is not yet confirmed, we’ll update that information in the next few days,

Your one-in-five chance to own this watch is available This Friday – September 26 at Midday. The only stockist is the G-Factory store on the ground floor of Myer Bourke Street in Melbourne – If you don’t live close, you better book a flight!

The Price?  $1,399.
