The showcase offered attendees a closer look at the personal connections and stories behind some of the collections that have grown alongside the brand.
 

A key highlight of the evening was the presence of Junichi Izumi, creator of the GA-2100 series, who engaged with members of the G-SHOCK community and shared insights into the design journey behind the GA-2100, one of G-SHOCK’s most recognisable series.
