G-Shock has unveiled a new limited-edition watch dedicated to Bruce Lee; the celebrated martial artist and actor would have celebrated his 80th birthday this year.
There will only be 300 timepieces made – all with a custom dial and that bright yellow strap – all of which will be available from G-Shock Stores around the globe.
All the details of the new G-Shock (dubbed boringly the MRG-G2000BL) have been customized in tribute of Lee, who died aged only 32 in 1973.
He was described by many as one of the greatest masters of marital arts, and created his own martial arts techniques and philosophy known as ‘Jeet Kune Do’.
The MRG-G2000BL has a titanium case and a black and bright yellow bracelet, which references the colours worn by Lee in his final film Game of Death.
The indices on the dial, the second hand and the MR-G logo are in yellow and red, which are the colours in the emblem of Jett Kune Do.
Jeet Kune Do phrase, Do is the subject of particular attention in this creation which references its philosophy with the phrase “Using no way as a way, having no limitation as limitation,” is engraved on the back.
Only 300 copies of the solar-powered watch – which is made in Japan – will be produced.
