Thanks and nice score yourself, my friend! Great "Prince" color scheme, and if you like the casing/fit/feel, you can go for the Bluetooth series. They've got like 15 different colors in that casing now!

Yeah, my 13 year old immediately said "that thing is huge" when I pulled it out of the can! With this size case maybe Casio could have a 16GB internal HD for music and I may never ever need a new DAP again

The only thing I don't like about G-Shocks whites??? They really fade and turn yellowish very fast... I guess it depends on band material but, even taking care of them the bands just turn yuck.
 
A few pics from the latest I've bought:

Bulova Moonwatch
 

 
Helgray TCD-01
 
Kind of "meh", will probably be my beater watch along with the G-shock.

That's very true, but the best G-Shock white got to be the GBA-400-7, which is basically the Bluetooth version of their GA-400s.  What's so special about that white, and most from the GBA line, is that it has a pearlescent coating on it, making it looks very special.  It's a shame that the coating is very difficult to photograph, and most pics online doesn't show it.

Laughed out loud for that one!  Casio G-Shock's music app is a very good close second!

I've thought about that lineup - it's a newer casing, and may make my way to my wrist when I check the different colors out in person.  I've been looking for Multi-Band 6 featured G-Shocks lately so I can use them for work as I need very accurate timekeeping.

Band material for G-Shocks (especially white) is a factor.  Matte white does get dirty easier, but is easier to clean.  Gloss white is very nice and takes longer to dirty, but if it is scuffed, that scuffed area is basically toast/"finito".  Of course the pearlescent coating of the GBA-400-7 like @DrSheep mentioned is very nice, but it is glossy and needs to be cared for a little more so scuffs don't happen. Matte white, like my second G-Shock I own (shown here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/70190/watches-another-passion-of-ours-it-seems-post-your-pics/10965#post_12174764), is nice and is easy to clean, when I clean it.
 
NIce timepieces!

I agree.  I've got the blue version (shown here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/70190/watches-another-passion-of-ours-it-seems-post-your-pics/10965#post_12174764) and it has a blue/purple sheen going on.  Most of the GBA-400 series have special paint coating on them.  I'm ready for the newest Bluetooth version G-Shock (not the newest Casio smartwatch).

You'll have a choice of a lot of colors for the GBA-400's!  Lime green (or any other color) GBA-400 would be a snazzy complement to your "Prince", I'd reckon! 
 
Here's most of the GBA-400's:

Yeah, as nice as the lime green is I'm kind of partial to that Texas Longhorn orange one

You should take a look at the orange one, has a really nice sheen to it and no other G-Shock that I know has the exact same color with sheen. :beerchug:
