The Casio G-SHOCK DW5600 has been crafted with the rich hues of Kentucky Bourbon.
Casio just dropped a Kentucky Bourbon-inspired G-SHOCK watch as part of its 40th Anniversary celebration which has been marked by unique brand collaborations. Kentucky-based Oneness Sneaker Boutique was tapped for this collab and they’ve paid homage to Kentucky Bourbon. This limited edition variation features translucent orange resin case which is reminiscent of the rich, warm color of a glass of Kentucky Bourbon. These colors extend in a gradient effect onto the strap of the watch from a golden amber to dark reddish brown. Further, the stainless steel buttons of the DW5600 and buckle have been given a gold ion-plated finish. The square dial features an inverted red LCD screen which bears the Oneness logo and the quote “What Are You Waiting On”.
According to Casio, Oneness and G-SHOCK, two renowned brands in the world of streetwear, have collaborated on G-SHOCK’s classic DW5600 timepiece for a limited-edition model to celebrate the timepiece brand’s milestone 40th anniversary. Combining the unmistakable durability and toughness of G-SHOCK with the spirit of Kentucky bourbon, paying tribute to Oneness’ roots, the DW5600ONS234 is a unique and captivating timepiece. Craftsmanship, legacy, and innovation make G-SHOCK synonymous with quality, and through the Oneness collaboration, this connection becomes even more apparent. The watch is available now for $130 online and in-store at Oneness.
