  • 6 of 15 G-SHOCK X SKLO Timepiece, $299


    Sticker Lady strikes again, but this time, she isn't decorating your grandfather's road, but a Casio G-SHOCK GX-56BB watch. Sam Lo, aka SKL0, the artist infamous for getting arrested for spray painting the words My Grandfather Road on Maxwell Road and Robinson Road in 2011, has collaborated with the watch brand to create a special design limited to 300 pieces. The band of the black GX-56BB features a colourful mix of motifs inspired by Singapore’s cultural melting pot. We like the triumphant Majulah on the band, as well as the unexpected ethnic design and hues. But where are the stickers? (heh heh)
