G-SHOCK x Maharishi GDG1000MH-1A British Bonsai Forest

We are witnessing a what could be a collaboration addiction between Casio G-SHOCK and UK-based pacifist military design label Maharishi. Yes. That Maharishi, again. Not that we are tired of the wonderful collaboration, but our wallets certainly won’t be too please because, not surprisingly, the resulting product, the G-SHOCK x Maharishi GDG1000MH-1A, is pretty tantalizing and this means, it beckons us to dish out exorbitant sum for it, well, as far as G-SHOCK goes, that is. And how much are we talking about? $850. Ouch.

That’s quite an asking price for a G-SHOCK, but in exchange, you will be getting a limited edition super rugged digital timepiece decorated with Maharishi’s new stretched camouflage variant of the British Bonsai Forest print, which you can find on the watch strap, and bright orange luminous indicators on the dial face. I don’t know. Somehow, I find the camo, military green case and orange accent makes for an unexplainable charm and I am sure you will concur if you love all-thing military. But is it worth the money? Well, I guess that really depends on your wants.
