BEAMS and G-SHOCK work in collaboration once again as the two highlight the G-B001 timepiece this time around. The Japanese companies join heads to create a special skeletonized iteration of the affordable timepiece. This marks the 18th time that the forces are working together and it is essentially an updated iteration of the DW-001 watch by G-SHOCK that launched back in 1994.
Retro design touches are retained with the new update and it opts for a chunky plastic case with a removable bezel. When the bezel is removed, the watch unveils a bare and transparent look. The collaborative G-B001 watch is set to launch in August later this year, available to shop on the BEAMS website.
