Aaron De La Cruz x Remix x Casio G-Shock Pop-Up Gallery Recap







Less than a week ago we previewed the Aaron De La Cruz x Remix x Casio G-Shock GD-6900 with hand-engraved lines mimicking Cruz’s signature freestyle art. Within our editorial we mentioned a temporary pop-up shop would open in Taipei to showcase the one-of-a-kind timepiece, and G-Shock was kind enough to invite us in to recap the event for our readers. Displaying a collection of original paintings and limited edition commemorative T-shirts, the pièce de résistance has to be the laser-cut mirror designed personally by Cruz himself. If you happen to be in the area, be sure to swing by the pop-up gallery at the address below.
