LA-based retailer and fashion brand UNDEFEATED has teamed up with G-Shock again on another limited-edition collaboration that’ll likely be coveted by streetwear and tactical style fans alike.

Watch and Streetwear Cred

The G-Shock and 'Undefeated' DWE5600UD with a black strap shown against a light grey background. — It’s hard to miss the collaborative branding on this release.

UNDEFEATED already has an impressive track record of excellent watch collaborations. That’s in part due to the tastes and deep watch knowledge of the company’s CEO and co-owner, Eric Peng Cheng, whom GQ called the Watch Collector of the Year in 2023.

Like many past collabs, the new UNDEFEATED x G-Shock DWE5600 features plenty of co-branding, with the company’s distinctive tally mark logo positioned immediately above the digital display and the brand’s wordmark immediately below it.

Quick-release spring bars make the included straps easy to swap in and out.

The tallies also appear on the case back. There’s even a final hidden version of the logo that appears only when the bold red backlight is activated.

Functionally, the underlying DWE5600 is otherwise identical to the standard version and offers all of the features you’d expect from a G-Shock, including a chronograph, world time tracking, and alarms.

Three Compelling Band Options

But the aesthetic star of the show here is the straps. Three different strap options ship with the watch, and swapping between them is easy thanks to integrated quick-release spring bars.

The three straps included with the he G-Shock and 'Undefeated' DWE5600UD collab watch shown lying flat on at an angle lined up in a row. One strap is black in the middle, and the other two are camo patterns flanking the black strap on either side. — The collaboration ships with three different straps that should all appeal to fans of rugged and modern tactical aesthetics.

The most conservative-looking option might look like a typical black rubber strap from a distance, but it’s actually semi-translucent. Two additional camo patterned straps, dubbed Tiger and Storm, are also available.

The camo motif also extends to the inner lid of the included display case/box.

Adding military-inspired patterns to a G-Shock’s inherent rugged vibes is nothing new. But the team at UNDEFEATED deserves serious props for developing an offering that lets owners dial up or down the tactical aesthetics of the watch depending on their mood and overall look.
