Super cool, and looks good in black.
The GBX-100 seems all sold out right now in the UK, but I would be fairly confident that the white and black will come back in stock (it was a G-Shock fan site that reported that the teal option had been discontinued, so I took their word for it and went and sourced one from the US via eBay). If you’re interested, the best thing is probably to sign up for the stock alert on the official site:

Worth noting the GBX-100 is a bit bigger than the classic 5600 shape but it’s manageable I think. The strap is softer than the usual G-Shock fare so it’s pretty comfy.

Really like that. I bought the OG G-Lide (GLX-5600, white) about 10 years ago and really hammered it. I took that watch on pretty much every holiday for years and then on a trip to Madagascar the strap got sliced up by some coral (as did most of my arm) after a kitesurfing mishap. It also stained a rusty red, some of that may have been actual rust but mostly from the rich, red soil it got covered in after multiple MTB crashes... it was a painful holiday!
Anyway, I brought it back to life a few weeks ago with a new black bezel and strap, I think I posted it last week but here it is again, old pic as I don't have it with me.
Is the black GBX-100 in stock anywhere in the UK? Initial couple of searches have proved fruitless so hoping someone might have a source as would quite like to add it to the collection, and the tide info is actually quite handy when I kitesurf!
