Casio G-SHOCK réf. 6900-PT80 par John Mayer Hodinkee PT-80 blanc cassé DW6900 boutiques Japon

The G-SHOCK DW6900 has developed a cult following over the last 26 years. Internationally, its the third most popular G-SHOCK watch ever as well as the top-selling model in Japan. But perhaps no previous DW6900 made as large a splash as when we teamed up with our longtime friend and collaborator, the musician and watch collector John Mayer, on a special edition G-SHOCK last year.

Its no wonder, then, that one year later were back at it with Mayer and G-SHOCK on a second edition – the G-SHOCK Ref. 6900-PT80 By John Mayer. The new watch builds on last years release with a fresh colorway that references the mid-1980 classic Casio PT-80 keyboard. The resin case and strap are an off-white shade that feels modern and will look even better over time. Bursts of bright colors indicate functionality; sunshine yellow for the Mode and Start/Stop indicators and tangerine orange for the Adjust and Split/Reset indicators. The G-SHOCK text at the top of the watch is a pleasing shade of periwinkle, adding a nice pop of color to the overall design. And what about the legendary "Triple Graph" display? Each of the three registers are circled in one of red, green, or grey. The best part is that all of the colors used on G-SHOCK Ref. 6900-PT80 come directly from the original PT-80 keyboard.

Stylish retro vibes in a lighthearted package. Add in a dose of G-SHOCKs famous hardwearing charm, and youve got the brand-new G-SHOCK Ref. 6900-PT80 By John Mayer.
