For the fifth time, Seoul-based label thisisneverthat and G-SHOCK have joined forces — and this iteration marks a meaningful first: the collaboration watch is being sold in Japan for the first time. The model in question is the DW-5600TNT, a reworking of G-SHOCK's foundational square-case silhouette, the DW-5600, which has been a cornerstone of the brand's catalog since 1987.
The design sensibility here is restrained and precise. A semi-transparent white body gives the watch an architectural clarity, with thisisneverthat's logo positioned inside the dial — visible but not insistent. The luminous bezel, which charges during the day and glows in low light, adds a technical accent that sits comfortably within G-SHOCK's utilitarian lineage. It is, in other words, a collaboration that respects both parties rather than simply co-signing each other's iconography.
Those who purchase the watch will also receive a limited-quantity collaboration T-shirt — an incentive that speaks to the relationship thisisneverthat has cultivated with its community over the years. The label, which opened its Tokyo flagship in Jingumae, has steadily built a presence in Japan that goes beyond import retail, and this watch drop feels like another step in that ongoing integration.
The DW-5600TNT retails for ¥18,700 (tax included) and releases on June 19, 2026.
