The G-SHOCK GW6900NASA24-1 timepiece has been shown off as the latest watch model that pays homage to the space administration in a decidedly retro way. The watch is inspired by the brand's classic calculator-equipped models and boasts a backlit display that showcases the word Gravity along with its mathematical equation, while the rear has the word Impact and its equation. The watch is constructed with a durable resin case that measures in at 53.2mm at its widest, while the thickness comes in at 17.7mm and is rated for 200-meters of water resistance.
The G-SHOCK GW6900NASA24-1 timepiece is priced at $170, but is only being offered through a lottery for fans to enter now through July 22, 2024 to try and get their hands on one.
