With a nod to the heyday of the clear craze that swept the 1990s, G-SHOCK has released a series of referential watches. The recently teased GA700SK-1A and DW5600SK-1 are among a collection of timepieces given a completely see-through dressing.
As part of the brand’s Clear Skeleton Series, core design elements of the collection — such as distinctly shaped watch faces and signature bands — are kept intact for both models. Minimalistic in display, metallic gray faces are complemented by translucent bezels and straps and come equipped with essential functions to provide wearers with maximum readability. These cosmetic details add flair, but without compromising on the durability and technical features that the imprint is known for. Further accentuating the looks of the offering, the above lookbook plays off the apparent characteristics through styling and textures to amplify the core inspiration behind the drop.
The GA700SK-1A and DW5600SK-1 retail for $120 USD and $110 USD respectively, and will be available at G-SHOCK retailers including Macy’s, the G-SHOCK Soho Store and the brand’s website.
The Represent Fall/Winter 2019 collection explores iconic Britain from a contemporary viewpoint. Influenced by the brand founders, George and Mike Heaton’s personal wardrobes, the collection reflects key moments in their youth updated with the lessons learned from adulthood – think heritage classics updated with modern silhouettes and textures.
To give the collection an animated update, the designers looked to British art and sculpture with consideration towards shape, layers and statue graphics on the garments. Plaid mohair and flannel pieces make for wearable, casual classics for fall season while metallic materials and contrasting pops of color against dark tones represent a positive outlook on the uncertain political state of today’s Britain. The campaign film features a sneak peak of the upcoming Terrier sneaker as well as Sonny Hall in the British countryside, navigating another dimension.
The brand has recently been teasing imagery of their Italian-crafted footwear and accessories, from a the standout Western Boots to the monogram Hard Box Body Bag on the Represent Instagram page.
The collection is available to buy now at representclo.com.
