What do you mean? There are 30 stars in total. One for each year of G-Shock's existence.

Anyway, more pics!
Outer box

Inner box

Inside the box

The watch - The Thirty Stars Sky Cockpit - GW-A1030A-1AJR

The hang tag and its official name

30 stars on the golden coloured metal strap keeper.

Gold coloured back plate. Unlike the other 30th Anniversary models and most other G-Shocks, this is not engraved. It is cast. Really nice!

I remember I read somewhere that this "Z" on the button means something. The normal ones doesn't have the "Z" symbol. Gotta dig out the article.

Since 1983

Multiband 6 + Tough Solar

I have to say, this is the hardest watch to set, G-Shock or non G-Shock. Then again, it is not meant to be set manually since it has Multiband 6 feature. It even automatically adjusts the date for months without 30th and 31st!
Really happy with the purchase. Well below retail price too.

Z symbol is mean Zulu Time or UTC Time for short. When you use it, it will point back to UTC time in anywhere in the world but depends on which time zone you are in. Example, if your local time is say 4:47p.m or 16:47, when you press the bottom Z button, it will point to 12 o'clock UTC time for couple of seconds (UTC time is 08:47). This is useful for pilot to know the exact UTC time against local time. In other words, Zulu Time also known as Military Time.
