Today Arrived My G Shock X One Piece Watch And Im So Excited I Just Had To Show You
The band and bezel of this model is illustrated with images of Monkey D. Luffy, the main protagonist of ONE PIECE. The hand of the indicator dial at 9 o’clock has a hat motif that is similar to the hat worn by the Luffy character. This new special collaboration model captures the essence of the spirit of G-SHOCK’s constant and unending evolution and innovation. ONE PIECE is a hit Japanese teen manga series by Eiichiro Oda published in Weekly Shonen Jump magazine.
The DW-5000C survived the impact of the hockey stick, and the G-Shock gained popularity among the general public. By 1998, Casio had released more than 200 different G-Shock models, with worldwide sales at 19 million units. The new model comes in a special package along with a combined “G-SHOCK × ONE PIECE” logo on the case back. This makes it a special model that demonstrates collaboration between the ever-advancing G-SHOCK line and the exciting ONE PIECE series where Luffy sets out on adventures to new worlds. This represents the X-shaped scar on Luffy’s chest, and also expresses the One Piece love of adventure and treasure hunting. I’m just gonna come clean and say that I’ve never been a fan of the GA-110 ana-digi series.
Detailing to reference the Straw Hat Pirates hero are abundant as his iconic Straw Hat is positioned on the inset dial and “WANTED” is embellished at the 3 o’clock position. To reference the “X” on the captain’s chest, the hour and minute hands create two diagonal lines. Black, pink and white are used throughout the wristband for the illustrations. Based on Casio G-Shock’s chunky GA-110 model, the new watches sport resin cases and bands fully decked out in graphic designs from their respective anime series, with even more references incorporated into the dials. The GA-110, which combines analog hands atop a digital display, measures 51.2mm wide but is light on the wrist , water-resistant to 200m and includes the typical G-Shock suite of timing functions as well as a 2-year battery.
A LED (light-emitting diode is used to light up the front of the watch. The watch also has an Auto Light Switch, that lights up the display when the dial is angled towards the face. The new Dragon Ball Z and One Piece collaborations with G-Shock were officially announced for Japan and Asia. The Dragon Ball Z x G-Shock GA-110JDB and One Piece x G-Shock GA-110JOP are slated for a July 2020 release in Japan and Asia. In Japan, the watches have a tax-included price of 26,400 JPY each. We can also expect the Dragon Ball Z x G-Shock GA-110JDB sometime soon, with likely the same price and limited units as well for lucky people.
Anywho, One Piece GA-110 also boasts a very lovely touch and that is the small dial at 9 o’clock appears to be wearing Luffy’s trademark straw hat. The One Piece GA-110 has a black base color with the entire watch “dynamically” designed with illustrations showing the Luffy growing and becoming stronger.
