Hachimura’s original logo featuring the symbol 八 (hachi in Japanese, meaning “eight”) is engraved on the case back, and the side button at the 8 o’clock position is laser engraved with the hachi symbol, as well. These and other Hachimura-inspired symbols are sprinkled throughout the design, for a collaboration worthy of a true global basketball sensation.
The shock-resistant construction you expect from a G-SHOCK in a design as sharp, sporty, and fearless as Hachimura himself.
- Comments from Rui Hachimura
This G-SHOCK signature watch is a limited edition I produced for everyone who enjoys both sports and fashion. It's designed with my favorite colors and the black samurai logo. Please take a look at this watch and try it for yourself.
