Thanks to 2005 Boards Member Ricochet for the news.

Digital…opposed too? Digital is far more precise and offers more options than an any old time style watch.
Technology..HO!!!

The light up feature is pretty cool. But price wise, it's a little more than I'd spend for a digital watch.

G-Shocks are still very popular because they have a nice look and are also useful. They are some of the tougher watches you can buy and are great for people that dive/surf/swim or just are in places that need a strong watch.
Ricochet
uh, a little bad news.
description says that it is "domestic original", probably means japanese release only. and only 1000 pieces each available. maybe you can grab them at eBay though.

It's understated. Nice simple design, no flash and bling.

If I hadn't just bought a watch, and these end up being a lot cheaper, I would have bought one.

G Shocks are my watches of choice. This has definitely piqued my interest.
King Starscream
These look a LOT better than the Seiko watches that were shown a few weeks back.

Oh crap, you're right! Deal breaker. Maybe it was just a lazy error on the concept art. Hopefully someone will fix that on the final.

Looks cheap, like something I could buy at Dollar General!

Why the Destron insignia in Red?

Yay! Finally a reason to buy a watch for work.

Gaww!

I've gotta say that I think a big honkin' black plastic digital watch looks pretty dated. So I disagree.
Optimus-JD
Because these won't make you look stupid wearing them.

These are older designs and just add in some transformers design on them. Kinda of expensive for these old version of the watches.
Jarodimus
Appear to be 15,540 Yen each, so US$128. Not sure what they do to make them worth that.
I'm puzzled why everyone seems to like these so far, but the innovatively designed Seiko ones received mostly jeers. These look like every digital watch made since the early '80s to me.

I think I might have to get one of these. Very nice.

How Much?
