Casio has teamed up with Seoul streetwear label thisisneverthat on a limited-edition DW-5600. The DW-5600TNT-7 features a translucent resin bezel and band with a black inner case. The inverted LCD and thisisneverthat branding give the watch a sharper black-and-white streetwear look. Glow-in-the-dark \u201cPROTECTION\u201d and \u201cG-SHOCK\u201d bezel text adds the standout visual trick. The release is set for July 2026 for USD $155 via thisisneverthat<\/p>\n

Casio and South Korean<\/a> streetwear label thisisneverthat are giving the square G-SHOCK another nostalgic run into the late-\u201990s.<\/p>\n

The new DW-5600TNT-7<\/a> is built on the classic DW-5600 platform, a shape that most people picture when they hear G-SHOCK<\/a>: square case, digital display, chunky bezel text and enough toughness to survive a little bit of this and a little bit of that. It\u2019s a familiar look to Casio\u2019s translucent versions, though the thisisneverthat<\/a> branding tells you it\u2019s something else entirely.<\/p>\n

Founded in 2010, thisisneverthat has built its name on contemporary streetwear filtered through Korean<\/a> youth culture and \u201990s Seoul subculture. For its latest G-SHOCK collaboration, the label hasn\u2019t tried to reinvent the 5600. It has kept the bones in place and changed the atmosphere around it.<\/p>\n

The case and strap arrive in translucent resin, with the black inner case showing through underneath. Across the face, thisisneverthat branding sits above the inverted LCD, giving the watch a sharper black-and-white look than the standard digital square. It\u2019s clean, slightly cold and deliberately nostalgic, like a clear plastic pager pulled from a Seoul skate shop.<\/p>\n

Its best detail shows up when the lights go down. Casio<\/a> has added a phosphorescent finish to the \u201cPROTECTION\u201d and \u201cG-SHOCK\u201d text at the top and bottom of the bezel, so the lettering glows in the dark. Something you can look forward to showing off on a night out.<\/p>\n

Further Reading <\/p>\n

thisisneverthat branding also appears on the case back and band loop, while the watch comes in special co-branded packaging designed for the collaboration.<\/p>\n

Underneath the streetwear treatment, it\u2019s still a DW-5600. That means shock resistance, 200-metre water resistance, a resin case and band, mineral glass, a 1\/100-second stopwatch, countdown timer, multi-function alarm, flash alert, full auto-calendar, and an LED Super Illuminator backlight. Casio also lists the battery life at approximately five years.<\/p>\n

Casio has listed the G-SHOCK x thisisneverthat DW-5600TNT-7 as a new July 2026 release. The watch is priced at USD $155 (AUD $220) via thisisneverthat, though Australian pricing and local availability have not yet been confirmed.<\/p>\n
