DW-6900FS UltraSeven


Tsuburaya Production design the model themselves to every details; from the watch it self to the box that it comes with. They choose to base this collaboration on Casio G-Shock DW-6900 model; the most famous model at that time. Now too though. All was base on a matte red resin band and bezel to mimic the Ultra Seven suit and so the all the line pattern on the suit was also put on the band of the watch. Both on the lower band and the upper band. Then they also include the EL back light of this model to pop up Ultra seven famous silhouettes which we could see when he the man himself transform into the action hero. They partnered up with Casio Japan and produced this model to only 2000 units only and all of it was only released in Japan.




DW-6900FL-4MJR



Limited Edition Metallic

This is one of my favorite classic DW-6900 G-Shocks. It belongs to the 'Metallic-G' edition from 2001. 

This series consists among other models, 2 DW-6900FL models. One was a well known 'Snake Killer' DW-6900FL-6MJR, and another is this one. Not sure what to call this model so I nicknamed it "Brother of the Snake Killer" 

The model is simply beautiful, IMO. It features metallic red/orange finish depending on of light that hits the watch at different angles.

The dial is actually very stealth in appearance. The dial insert is finished in glossy black, surrounding dial text (dark red text around the black edge circle of the dial) and the LCD color is exactly the same as on the Rusty/MIRB Frogman GW-200MS. 

It features custom EL artwork, not sure what to make out of that one, though.  It was supposed to feature a well known Japanese cartoon character used extensively on surf and skate boards custom work. All I can see is a little funny looking man fondling a giant mushroom 

The caseback also sports a custom spikey looking letter 'G', nothing like I've seen before.

Anyway, off to the pics...sorry for the dust guys.

As it can be seen the model number is split into various groups which are decoded below. Note not all groups will necessarily be present. For example most G-Shock typically have a full model number of the format Type Code-Model Number-Colour Market (eg. GX-56-4DR). Typically if Order code is present Market code will not be.

Hey the rectangular box is just to show sendcos, it moves every second. It is kind of pointless but looks cool. In adjustment mode (when you try to change the time and date) the number in the top left is still the month and day but the number in the top left is the year. Hope this helped
