This is a screenshot from G-Shock Japan website for all of them. Lets go through each of them by series. I include purchase links as well if you'd like to grab them right away.
This is all that had been announced at for now.
Category 1 : 2017 Denim pattern series
LINKS (Will be available after released date)
Category 2 : 2017 Silver Gold MTG
LINKS (Will be available after released date)
Category 3 : G-Steel Robert Geller collaboration
LINKS (Will be available after released date)
But now when I look at all of them again, I can now see the tiny difference that each of them have. Besides the older released DENIM already end their production so if you're fan of this released, this is your second chance at getting one I guess?
They did add one GA-100 and also the popular GA-700 series model into the collection though. That is something new. A one lot of people likes 700 series over the GA110 or even GA-100. I just notice the GA-700 indexes have similar color way to all the buttons on most vintage jean outfits though. Pretty cool touch. Same applies to the GA-100 series watch face as well.
The DW-5600 version looks almost similar at a glance but when you compared them side to side I believe this 2017 version seems better than 2016 version mostly because of the light blue display and also it looks cleaner as well.
Overall thoughts? I love to have a look at them but that about it. I don't think I'll be purchasing them to add into my collection at the moment. I get the idea, how Casio would relate themselves to this tough outfits material but I'm just not a big fan.
They will be released in Japan alongside a matching set of Baby-G models. Yeah, its almost like a couple set; somewhere in the middle or at the end of this month.
MOVING ON to the next model which is the MTG
This is just an addition to already existed generic released Metal Twisted G-Shock Category actually. Prior to this, we only have two options from the MTG-S-1000D family which is the all silver or the red and silver. All of them priced the same which 95,000yen + tax and that to me is a good news if you're a fan of this model. If this is indeed will be a generic released, then I believed this newly added gold model will be a very easy to get color way as well.
I'm not a big fan of this as well because I have super skinny wrist. I can pull off a big resin watch like my Gulfmaster though but when we're talking about full steel watch, I don't think I'm up to it. This new model indeed looks more expensive than the others in my opinion.

Talking about steel watches, we also will be getting another full steel G-Shock from G-Steel family. Correct me if I'm wrong, I believe this is the first G-Steel Collaboration model that is out there right? I didn't follow the news when it is about G-Steel. Not a big fan for same reason as why I'm not liking the MTG. I like to have a look at them, hold them, or keep them in possession but I can't see myself wearing one without feeling awkward.
I'm not sure why Casio didn't listed in here but there are other G-Steel model that wasn't been released in Japan like these guys but still none of them look like this special collaboration model.
However, as much as I am liking them, all of these steel model probably haven't grow in me yet I believe and that why I holding myself back from purchasing or reviewing as much as you guys had been requesting and also because I'm running out of funds.
To summarize all things up, I believe my favorite model out of all would be the GST-200RGB Robert Geller collab model only. I was actually hoping they made this collab on the new MINI G-Steel instead though, I'll be all over this if they did.
That is all I got for you today unless Casio G-Shock Japan announce more soon which they most likely will but we'll see.
Thanks for visiting everyone!. CHEERS
