Any indication of just how "limited" this is? I've not been able to find anything yet...

Yes, I was just informed of this on WUS as well. There is as yet no information about how many of each model there will be. Historically speaking, CASIO seems to mix it up where some models have fewer units, sometimes on the order of thousands. Maybe they do that because of the anticipated sales, as some models simply sell better than others.

Agreed. I think casio does a relatively good job of not overproducing so i am sure they have their own ideas of how many to make.
I am looking for production #'s for another watch as well and have yet to find them on the web. Other than genuinely limited (3000 or less) i don't think Casio discloses. Could be wrong though.
