Casio has revealed a new limited edition collaboration model with Hong Kong-based cartoonist Little Thunder. This watch is based on the DW-5600MW-7, which was released in August 2018.
The new G-Shock x Little Thunder DW-5600MW-7 watch has tiny black cartoons on the watch strap, and also features the artist's name, 'Little Thunder', and the words 'Unbreakable Dreams'. It appears to have the same white resin casing and positive (light background) display as the original model. It should measure 48.9 x 42.8 x 13.4 mm (~1.9 x 1.7 x 0.5 inches) and weigh 53 g (~1.9 oz).
Features of the DW-5600MW-7 include a 24 hour countdown timer, a 1/100th second stopwatch and a multifunction alarm. Users can also choose to receive hourly time signals and flash alerts with a buzzer. The original version features a blue green electroluminescent backlight with afterglow. It is accurate to within 15 seconds each month, with a fully automatic calendar and 12 or 24 hour time formats. Plus, it is water resistant to 200 m and should run for around two years on a CR2016 battery.
The Casio G-Shock x Little Thunder DW-5600MW-7 is expected to be exclusive to Hong Kong. The company has yet to announce when this limited edition watch will be released, and how much it will cost.
