Tobyato designs new G-SHOCK National Day Watch – a revival of the first analog G-SHOCK AW-500

G-SHOCK Singapore launches this year’s National Day Watch designed by local artist Toby (a.k.a Tobyato).

As an artist, Singapore is the place that allowed Tobyato to pursue his passions. He also highlighted that Singapore is a place he calls home.

For this year’s National day watch, Tobyato used the colours red and white to create a design that show his gratitude to this tough, small resilient island home.

In terms of the design, the base model is AW-500BB-4EDR revival of first analog G-SHOCK AW-500. On the band of the red color watch, a powerful white lion Toby designed, and his logo are printed. This watch comes with a special designed box with the lion design.
