The basic Concre model was released in big numbers, at least in Japan. G-Shocks were also not hyped as they are now by a lot of new collectors. A few scream and the rest follow the herd, if they like the watch or not. <br /><br />Personally I don't understand why Casio made the recent Wu-Tang model this limited, after advertising it for months. The only profit is there for those interested in fast $$$ and not in G-Shocks. Casio sells them for their retail price, resellers sell it for $100 more. Casio and Collectors the victims. I think this should have been at least a 5000 run. <br /><br />I do not wear all watches, specially not the rare ones. For more limited models I try to find two. One to keep clean in my collection and one to wear. <br /><br />If you knew me better, you should know I do not sell any of my G-Shocks in my collection. Maybe that's even a good thing, because that's why I can write about them. I personally do not like people asking to sell me my G-Shocks too. I receive even price list request every now and then :-(<br /><br />Cheers,<br /><br />SjorsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12340378348442987683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4463679325672599668.post-17823976459525920312012-10-23T13:55:00.816+02:002012-10-23T13:55:00.816+02:00Hi Sjors!

I dont understand why such interesting models released a super-small batches and never reissued. If the demand is there, why not offer? It is beneficial to all, including Casio. More sales, more money! <br />My first G-Shock was DW-5000SL-1 and I bought by accident in 2009. And only in 2012 I started to consciously collect G-Shock's (only 5600's model).<br />I am interested, you wear all watches from your collection and how do you keep them all?<br />If you have any 5600 models for sale, let me know ;)<br />Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
