- Imo the rarest GWN-1000 colourway.

- You want all the tech of a GWG-1000 MudMaster but don't like the industrial look? This guy fits the bill. Whilst there is some minor variation it is of equal competence. All modern gulfs have a unique look set on fairly classic (but oversize) silhouettes and feature dial designs inspired by nautical instruments and equipment. Whilst all Gs are all good the Gulf has been and will remain my Master of G, of choice. Interestingly this model doesn't have an official series name but the original marketing was an almost carbon copy of the older Men In Light Gray series.


Watch Notes:

Watch in good overall (used) condition. Upper Metal bezel good overall, a few points of wear, all very minor, 12-2 & 5-7 o'clock edge clearly visible plus a few other extremely minor elsewhere.  Lower Resin Bezel decent, quite hard to grade as it hides wear well: rubbing, shine and/or scuff marks around the lower lugs particularly notable 9h side, the same at the 3 & 9 o'clock raised bumpers. Band Resin good, let down a little by a cluster of small dark marks between eyelets 5 & 6 counted from lugs, some barely visible rubbish between eyelets 2 - 5 counted from lugs and a few other extremely minor bits elsewhere. Strap keeper decent, minor, light & short scratches throughout plus one heavier micro nick to the edge above 'H' of 'G-SHOCK'. Buckle good, a few very light and minor scratches. Buttons including crown excellent with minimal signs of use. Backplate fair (weirdly) I've no idea how or where this G was stored or displayed but... Don't do that! Multiple scratches throughout, they're all small but there is some clusters of short but relatively heavy (for the area) scratches, too much to list in full but the obvious areas are the exposed areas (not under the band) on either side. I'd assume it's been strapped to something metal at some point and... Don't do that! Glass is flawless with a little dust here and there. 


Accessory Notes:

Box in very good overall condition, a little dusty hear and there and extremely light rubbing to some panels but nothing significant.
