What they are seeing and capitalizing on is that a lot these newer generation of watch wearers are more into the designer name than the actual watch itself. So where you or I or any other watch collector sees casio and g shock, they see the designer.

Agreed about the collaborators/designers. That being said, Japan sees branding a little differently, which is why the Japanese wisely created Acura for the US, whereas it’s still a Honda NSX in Japan. Like Seiko, maybe we’ll eventually see some kind of “Grand G-Shock.”
