Yes, its just a Casio, but it’s a massive hit worn by a wildly diverse crowd, ranging from budget-conscious students and teenagers to multi-millionaire luxury watch collectors. Rumor says even Navy Seals have used this watch, but prefer the standard Casio G Shock models DW-6600, DW-6900, and DW-9052. So the Casio Oak is only $100 buck if you can find one.

Here is the inspiration. Audemars Piguet: The Royal Oak and the Royal Oak Offshore

Two of the most beloved collections from Audemars Piguet are the Royal Oak and the Royal Oak Offshore. Sometimes, though, it can be difficult to distinguish one from the other. Here we take a look at the key differences between these two sought-after series.
The Audemars Piguet Royal Oak collection, which has become an icon in watchmaking history, was the brainchild of Gerald Genta, who conceived of the first stainless steel luxury sport watch, complete with a hexagonal bezel and exposed screws, in 1972. Similarly, the Royal Oak Offshore collection, introduced in 1993 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the original Royal Oak, bears the same distinguished hexagonal shape, exposed screws, and integrated bracelet. While the differences between the two collections may seem subtle, a closer inspection offers a telltale story.

I’ve had mine for two years now. Great watch no problems. It’s my only G- shock. I’m thinking I’ll buy a 6900 next.
