I purchased mine from a department store. I was attracted to the contrast of the black casing and band and the mirror-finished face dial. It really stands out. It looks sporty yet classy. Another feature that attracted me is the 7-year battery life. My G Shock collection consists of solar powered models. 7 years is pretty long before I need to worry about replacing the battery.

The casing and band is in matte finish. The face is silver. The effect of the digits and letters on the mirror-finish face makes it look like you're looking at time through glass. It truly is an innovative design.
