new Dee & Ricky sold out in Japan, trickling out soon?

These are expected to drop soon over in Japan. 18900 YEN

I think Dec for US launch, but I hope it comes soon.
These are already sold out in Japan, and looks to be another hit already like the last time.
I hope I can get lucky thru our Macys guru/showroom brawl buster. ;)

There's one already trickled onto ebay. $400. May have sold already, or scammers have started?

Funny you should mention that, since I had planned on wearing this one while marching in the NYC Gay Pride parade this year with my company's float:

Unfortunately I had to bow out at the last minute thanks to a sick child (my son was going to march with me). Next year, I'll definitely be rocking the white Dee and Ricky. :thumbsup:

:whip: Great Adam, so I wasnt the only one thinking that the bright colors are appropriate for a pride parade. I hate parades and im not gay, so I dont think in this lifetime I will see one, but I know a lot of colors are involved. :policered:

Very interesting. I like it White seems like the obvious way to go for part deux. The only other thing that could have worked is possibly clear.

I am hoping to not find one in my mail box or on my front porch. If I do, I'll alert the authorities.

That is a crime against good taste.

To the best of my knowledge, no, we don't have them yet. I'll check again on Monday, but the manager of the G-Shock counter said he'd call me as soon as they arrived and that he'd set a bunch aside for me.

Cool, keep us posted.

That video was posted on Dec 2, apparently just bought from a Macy's. :shrug:

I've been scouring the net, nothing released online as of yet. ie. casio.com, macy's, amazon... :scratch:

Timed for xmas. These will fly off the shelves.

Thanks Adam. :love:

"Got two of them. I'll probably keep one and sell the other one"...at a considerable profit I'm sure. :raised: I know (Casio does these special models and they always sell like crazy but I just can't get into this one.

This is the G Shock version of the Panerai 390. Except this thing is so ugly no one would want to actually wear it. Except Adam.
