Sjors has an article this week on a special limited edition collaboration between Casio and the XLARGE/x-girl brands. This G-Shock is based on the classic DW-6900 model, and it has some really nice customizations to set it apart from the stock watch. The watch comes in a specially designed custom round metal tin with a matching outer cardboard box. The watch has stealthy matte black resin pieces with some subtle embossed printing, and a nice gold printed logo. The LCD is gold-tinted, as are the metal pieces like the buttons and screws. The stainless steel case back features a custom logo engraving, and the back light features a red X-LARGE gorilla logo. This G-Shock was released in November 2012, and you might be able to still find one for sale if you look hard enough.
