Casio has added a new limited-edition model to its US G-Shock lineup: the DW6900MO26-4, created in collaboration with Bay Area rapper Larry June and his lifestyle brand, Midnight Organic. The watch is currently listed on Casio’s website at $170 and is expected to go on sale later this month.
Design Details
The release is built on the DW6900, a digital G-Shock model that has been part of the brand’s core lineup for decades. The overall shape and layout remain unchanged, including the round case, front-facing button, and three-eye digital display. What’s different here is the color treatment and branding details tied to Midnight Organic.
The watch comes in a bright orange finish that reflects both Midnight Organic’s identity and Larry June’s personal 1987 Chevrolet C4 Corvette, which inspired the design. Casio says the metallic accents on the band loop and dial reference the Corvette’s stock silver and medium gray exterior. The bezel and strap follow the orange tone associated with the clothing brand.
There are a few collaboration-specific touches. The case back features a special engraving of the Midnight Organic 1991® logo and the phrase YOU’RE DOING GOOD. When the LED backlight is activated, the display reveals the message Good Job! Packaging has also been customized, using Midnight Organic branding and an orange color scheme inspired by the Corvette’s bright interior.
From a technical standpoint, the DW6900MO26-4 keeps the standard features of the 6900 series. It has shock-resistant construction and 200-meter water resistance. The resin case measures 53.2 x 50 x 18.7 mm and weighs 67 grams. Casio uses bio-based resin for parts of the case and band. The watch runs on a CR2016 battery with an estimated lifespan of about five years.
Core functions include a stopwatch, countdown timer, multi-function alarm, hourly time signal, and flash alert. It also features a Super Illuminator LED backlight with afterglow, a full auto-calendar, and support for both 12- and 24-hour formats.
In related news, Casio has recently unveiled a striking gold-tone stainless steel watch featuring a vibrant green dial, while also expanding its US lineup with a series of retro-inspired timepieces that pair clean dial designs with stainless steel cases.
