Casio G-Shock DW-6697-7B Codename "Cast a spell" | Lovers 1997 | Vintage | Pre-owned
The Casio G-Shock DW-6697-7B “Cast a Spell” is a 1997 Japan-exclusive release from the Lovers Collection, one of the most creative and collectible G-Shock collaborations from the 1990s made in Japan.
Finished in soft white resin with navy accents, it features a woven fabric strap embroidered “Cast a Spell” alongside a mythical griffon motif. When illuminated, the backlight reveals the silhouette of a witch on a broomstick — a whimsical and rare design detail that embodies Casio’s playful spirit during the golden era of G-Shock experimentation.
