The G-SHOCK GW9500TLC-1 Mudman ‘Land Cruiser’ limited-edition has been created in collaboration with Toyota Land Cruiser as a slick timepiece that pays homage to off-road racing.

The timepiece boasts a stainless steel bezel alongside a custom color theme that includes black and red ion plating to have it match the Land Cruiser 300 GR Sport's color scheme.
