It now celebrates three decades of designs, continuing to honor the status and durable longevity of the series. As a part of this anniversary milestone, the brand has launched a selection of commemorative drops with the second taking the form of the GWF-A1000 as the base model. It is then designed with a theme based on the South American poison dart frog, which can be seen in the form of bright colors. It is randomly laminated with [colorful carbon and fiberglass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mrgb2000kt3a) that have been carved to create bezels that are meant to represent the mysterious tones of the frog. It is rounded out by a slightly clear urethane material and polarized ink, nodding to the mottled skin pattern of the poison dart frog.
