GA-200SPR-1AJR . G-Shock & Supra collaboration
Released in the year 2013 during Casio G-Shock 30th Anniversary which in collaboration with US famous street wear foot brands, SUPRA.
This model was also being released along with a special edition Supra sneaker shoes that matches each other really well.
The watch comes in basic GA-200 engine in matte black finished. This model comes in full black with a slight red details. The inner bezel was made out of steel in matte black finished. Same goes with it's Thailand steel back plate and Casio Thailand band buckle. It's outer bezel was out from the standard resin material which also comes with matte black finished.
The most interesting things about this particular model is that it was made out hard canvas which probably the same material used in Supra's sneakers. The bottom band also being sewed with a leather buckle hook and a layer of red canvas cover at it's below part. The upper band are also made with the same materials.
The band keeper was made out leather with the Supra LOGO pressed on it.
One more interesting about this model is that the back plate which was engraved with a mock watch face and with the words 'IT'S ABOUT TIME' on it. This is the theme for this model.
For a better view, I'd had made an unboxing video for this model:

This model was released in japan in 2013 with a retail price of 22,000¥+tax in all official G-Shock retail stores all over Japan. Current market price was around 300 dollars, I also had seen this model being sold at a higher price than that. However, if you are lucky enough, there are a few used conditions one being sold just around retail price which is still affordable. All depends on your budget. The special edition shoes was sold separately and lesser quantity which made it become rare in today market.
I haven't got the chance to grab one that comes with my own size but I'll keep looking and update on this post if I'm able to get a hold on it. I just match it my already own shoes. even the colour suits well. Gotta love 'em!
That's all from me.
Thank you for visiting.
