A Custom G-SHOCK Named After the Legendary Muramasa Sword
Born in 1983, G-SHOCK is a masterpiece watch renowned for its shock resistance and as a representative of modern digital timepieces. The "MURAMASA" features a G-SHOCK bezel customized with silver, adorned with intricate hand-engraving across its entire surface.
The engraving is meticulously done by hand by a craftsman, resulting in a refined finish. The strap is made of leather by BAMBI, a watch strap manufacturer, making it suitable for formal occasions. As each piece takes a month to create, only eight will be available for purchase.
The "MURAMASA," which elevates the G-SHOCK to the realm of fine art, embodies DAMUE's strong message of "Japanese techniques that should be passed down to future generations."
