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.
