Watchlords

The baby blue and black Bamford G-SHOCK 5610 sold out in 6 minutes, which sucks, because it's great

The democratisation of watch modification has been sinking in for a few years, moving from diamond-encrusted Rolex watches, all the way down to swapping out a set of hands on your favourite Seiko SKX. In recent times, it’s become apparent that watch brands are trying to cover their bases and provide the unique look of a modified watch in a completely stock package. We’ve seen it with the new Seiko 5 Sport line, and we’ve seen it with Rolex reintroducing their vibrant Stella dials of the past. Even Casio aren’t immune, with the latest “Casi-Oak” being hewn from a GA2100 and an aftermarket steel case to look even more like the famed AP Royal Oak. Well, now G-SHOCK are showing the world their intentions by teaming up with Bamford Watch Department — one of the world’s premier modifiers of luxury Swiss watches.

Now available from speculator fucks on eBay for quadruple the money. Especially in Britain. Pocket the cash, prove you're a cunt, is that how it works?

Sold out in 6 minutes and now selling for over $700 on ebay. Bastards.

As Ace once sang, how long as this been going on? I never thought I'd see the words "Bamford" and "G-Shock" in the same sentence.

I'd be happy with a G-Shock, hold the Bamford.

The Bamford Gee is new to me as well, but Casio's been trotting out some of the most bizarre mashups for some time, with all sorts of Japanese pop culture. Apparently, we Westerners usually never get to see 'em, as they're all JDM, although some show up for sale at absurd prices.
