Edison Chen designs limited edition G-Shock

SINGAPORE - Hong Kong celebrity Edison Chen has helped to design a Casio G-Shock watch through his design and fashion company CLOT.

The G-Shock X CLOT collaboration model is being launched as a limited edition model to commemorate G-Shock's upcoming 30th anniversary.

CLOT founders Kevin Poon and Edison Chen have designed the watch in the brand's signature shade of red.

It has a flexible resin strap with the CLOT logo on the face and also engraved on the back.

The watch is shock resistant and is also water resistant up to a depth of 200 metres. It comes with an EL backlight, flash alert, multi-function alarm, 1/100-second stopwatch, countdown timer and 12/24 hour formats.

It will retail in stores for $159.

At the same time, G-Shock is also re-releasing the G-Shock X Eric Haze collaboration watch, which received overwhelming response from consumers when it was first launched in October.

The initial release of the G-Shock X Eric Haze watch saw queues formed at all G-Factory outlets in Singapore from as early as 6am.

More than 400 pieces of the watch designed by Brooklyn-based designer Eric Haze were sold in the initial release.

The limited edition watch comes in a specially designed package and retails at $249.00.

Both watches will be available for sale only at Marina Bay Sands, Plaza Singapura and Takashimaya outlets.
