GD-100 A BATHING APE collaboration limited edition model.
This model was released on February 21st this year. Item was available for everyone on Bape Ape Online store.
ApeStoreOnline Link
and also available at most of A Bathing Ape retail store all over Tokyo, Japan.
This model were based on basic glossy white GD-100 models. A very simple design with only three words written on the end of it's band which is
'WORLD GONE MAD'
This glossy white models comes with a contrasted black watch face with the word 'BAPE' written in white on the top of the face. Plus, the negative watch display makes the contrast even better looking than normal model.
One more special things about this model is that it comes with a special stainless steel backplate with A Bathing Ape official Ape logo being engraved on it and surrounded by a camouflage pattern.
The best thing about this model is it's box. It is basically the same type of box design from it's ancestor except this time it is more complicated and all the design and pattern had been fully printed all around the box. With a '2-toned-theme' design, all comes in only black and white pattern which mimic like other camouflage model that are being released recently. If you guys looks closely on the box, they make it look like the ape is being camouflaged inside a bamboo forest. It is just my opinion, but it is really cool.
Next we move to the inner box which hold the watch. This box uses a different type of paper which have rough surface that feels like canvas. It feels really solid and tough not like any other type of normal box. On top of this box also have the Ape logo printed in glossy black colour ink. Other parts are just matte white, However, the inside part of the box once again uses the same type of paper with it's outer box and also have the same type of pattern printed on it. On each side of it has the Ape logo again and the other side has 'G-SHOCK' written in glossy ink.

There are no rumors on how many pieces was released yet. But most of the time this kind of models will usually released around 1000 units only. Since it was released only Japan, only few peoples will get the hold of this special model. I have seen a lot of re-sellers selling this piece for only about 250USD at this moment in most online shopping websites. So, better grab fast while you guys still can. That is all for now,
THANK YOU for visiting.
