The G-Shock 'Pure Gold' G-D5000-9JR has been released as part of Casio’s 35th Anniversary celebrations. It is based on the Dream Project GW-5000, a concept watch also made from 18K gold.
However unlike the concept watch, this G-Shock (fit for King Midas himself) has gone into production with a total of 35 pieces available, worldwide.
Like any G-Shock worth its salt the Pure Gold’s 18K case is impact-resistant and has gone through the exact same rigorous testing procedures that any G goes through.
And like any regular G-Shock, it is loaded with all of Casio’s latest tech such as a split-second radio-wave time correction beamed out from six global stations, and is powered by Casio’s Tough Solar charging system. It also has 200m of WR.
Interested parties should submit a pre-order to Casio’s web store on May 15th, after which 35 Pure Golds will be shipped out just in time for Christmas.
Don't have 70K lying but want one? HERE's the poorman's version.
