Love it! Looks to be very well made. Casio makes excellent products in general.
The fact you have a CW CTR is a bonus.
I have about zip chance of matching a Honda watch to my AB FK8. Of course the dash colors, as well as the rest of the interior, are the same regardless of exterior color, so it still works well for any CTR owner.
Heck of a great present, and a very good friend indeed. Congrats.
You can just change the band. It would look good on a black rallye style band.

Shows out of stock on the Casio site ...................
have to be quicker than that, I was able to purchase one. My post was 6 hours before yours.

set the "remind me" alert on and it'll send you an email if they become available again.

Got my watch today. Not bad. It’s light and thin. Don’t love the strap and keepers.

If you want to sell ......... I'm listening .......... ;-)
I’m not selling. Going to find some strap options.

I do know someone who is waiting on their second watch so if he’s willing to sell, I’ll let you know.

Just because they have it in stock and the Mugen watch is on sale doesn’t make it a scam. At least I don’t see it that way.

Agree. The site looks quite legit and they have tons of disclaimers as well as phone numbers and physical locations. An illegitimate business doesn’t have such in-depth info readily available on their website…at least not that I’ve seen before.

Hmmmm this seems a bit like a potential scam... there's Paypal protection available, but it's odd they have this in stock as well as the Casio Mugen watch (on a big discount, too).
It’s Japan man. Casio is headquartered there. They have TONS of stuff in Japan, Singapore, Taiwan, etc. that may be rare/difficult to get in the States (and other countries). Likewise we have stuff here in the States that is hard for them to get, but may be common to us.

If I didn’t already own this watch, I would order from them. If it was a $2k watch I might be a little more hesitant. But at less than $500, if there was an issue, I would dispute it with the credit card company. These watches are very niche. Only people like us would want them. Even then some of us think this watch is ugly.

Well, I rolled the dice and placed an order, and I just received a tracking number--we'll see what arrives in a few weeks!

(Still on the fence about the looks of it, but I'll give it a chance in-person)

Man this friggin watch has been just as hard to get as the car especially here in Canada...there was one in Calgary on Monday, but they were closed so I figured I'll call em on Tuesday to see if they can take the shipping off...$25 to $45 cdn dollars...of course it was gone by the next morning...tried a dealer in France apparently they're sold out everywhere...so after some digging I found this place and ya took a chance as well...these guys have some coupon codes online 5 percent or maybe even more...its supposed to be here by the 14th so I'll let you know what they send... hopefully don't get dinged with duty...

True, a type R in Singapore probably costs over a quarter mil so doubt too many zipping around out there...
