Korean streetwear labels LMC (Lost Management Cities) and G-SHOCK have unveiled a new collaboration featuring the DW-5600 watch.
Inspired by hospital aesthetics, the new timepiece is presented in a pristine white color. LMC's logo and branding are prominently displayed on the hospital band-inspired strap, accompanied by a stock photo of a doctor, and spaces for wearers to personalize with their name, age, gender, weight, and assigned doctor's name. Additionally, a QR code and bar code are integrated into the strap.
Furthering the hospital theme, the watch's outer packaging resembles prescription medication packaging, enhancing the immersive experience. Crafted from high-quality cardboard, it mirrors real medical packaging and features a captivating graphic design with the phrase "Time is Medicine."
The collaborative DW-5600 watch will be available for purchase starting April 25, accessible through LMC and Musinsa's online platforms. Additionally, it will be stocked at LMC's pop-up store within the Hyundai Seoul department store.
