For Albino & Preto’s latest collaboration, the brand is putting its spin on the iconic DW-6900 G-SHOCK model.

The watch features a stealthy black colorway imbued with fluorescent yellow accents across its dial and strap. Albino & Preto’s branding is incorporated subtly into the watch face’s display. The collaboration also comprises a capsule of apparel and accessories, including the PEARL WEAVE kimono top and NOVO ONE bottoms, both inspired by martial arts uniforms.

The collaborative DW-6900 will officially launch on February 24 in Japan and U.K. Meanwhile, it’ll be available to shop at the designated pop-up space on February 25. Starting February 28, the watch can also be purchased via Albino & Preto’s official website.
