G Shock 30th Anniversary Series: Collector's Item

In its 30th birthday, G Shock announce that they made special edition watch with a limited number. Basically, these watch are the standard watch sold to the public with "some extras'. The most significant  thing which differs it from basic watch is the domination of red color used. The next significant changes is on the naming of the series. In this series, the Series name is added 30 in the last number. So the series would be 5630, 6930, 9330, and 8230.

The Models

30th Anniversary Series

The models offer in this limited edition are some of the most popular G-Shock styles, the classic 5600 mens watch, and prominent 6900 mens watch, mud-resistant G9300 MUDMAN and two versions of the iconic FROGMAN dive watch. From the classic series, the G Shock DW5630 and DW6930 offer the basic model that most of us already know. The other newer series of Mudman and Frogman also offer the same model as it is in the non 30th edition.

The Feature

30th Anniversary As Displayed

Since all of those watch are taken from already exist model, no additional functionality added. The basic DW5630 and DW6930 offer basic model feature. No Auto-Light or Tough Solar feature. While in the newer version of Mudman and Frogman, they have already fitted with modern technology like diver ready for Frogman or Adventure gear on Mudman. Which one is best? It is all the same since we bought it because of its appearance.

The "Some Extras"

Special Case

When you bought one, the first thing you'll notice is the case. It is a nice combination of Black, Red, and silver. This case came with text 30 written in the top and 30th G Shock Anniversary written in the side. When we are opening the case and look at the watch, we can see that the watch itself is dominated by red color. When we see in the back case, there will be text about G Shock Anniversary, a small but good details.

Price

All of this niceness and great looking things comes with a pricey tag. But it is not a big deal if you are looking for a G Shock which will shock anyone who see it.
