Casio’s BABY-G celebrates their 25th anniversary this year with Pokémon Company on a special edition watch inspired by Pikachu, the 25th Pokémon in the Pokédex.
This special anniversary model uniquely features Pikachu reflecting the style of the original Pokémon Red and Blue video games released in 1996 in an edgy way.
The watch features details like “0:25” on the band loop, while on a black base, the watch band is decorated with neon, polygon-style Pikachu lighting marks, and Poké Balls. The design of the dial took on the original game screen, giving it a very 90’s feel alongside a polygon-style Pikachu appears when the EL backlight is turned on. Additional details include an engraving of Pikachu’s rear view on the back cover and the packaging is specially shaped like a Poké Ball.
The BABY-G Pikachu collaboration model is now available at all G-Factory stores and authorized dealers, retailing at RM579.
