We can’t possibly keep up with Casio’s steady stream of G-Shock models, iterations, colorways, and limited editions, but it is fun to sometimes check in on what colorful and affordable things they are offering. These new Casio G-Shock GA110LN Layered Neon Color watches represent a good sample of today’s more basic G-Shocks compared with some […]
