I was there when the stocks arrived and the staff told me they had many pieces... few days later all disappear liao

I didn't buy because I am not really into collabs, unless the collabs involve some previously unavailable LCD colour. A lot of collabs are merely prints and mix-matching of bezels/straps.

that said, I did succumb recently to this

may i ask a noob question...
Beside monitoring/reading the surrounding air temperature,
can the built-in thermometer of the watch measure the body temperature like fever,
unless it has an infrared thermometer.
what model that has this function ?
TIA.

I don't think measuring body temperature will be accurate. For my own pieces (g-shocks, protreks), the body only increases the detected temperature over ambient temp by a few degrees.

I remember casio had in infrared thermometer watch, but I think is is a discon old-school model. Oosimm used to collect retro casios, he may be able to shed some light.

This was a collab model, but it had unique bezel/buttons colourway, and I believe purple straps are also unique to this model. I think it was launched in 09 or late 08, and officially it should be discontinued, with a limited run as with collabs. It is still available in shops in HK and locally at least Superchrono (at Sim Lim Sq) still has it. But the prices are very WAAAAAHHHH!!!!!...
