This slick collaboration between the folks at Casio and Bandai Namco pays homage to the classic Pac-Man video game. It’s a no-holds-barred design that puts the colorful game front and center. The watch is based on the practical and highly legible Casio A100WEPC with its squared off-case, four face buttons, and the negative LCD readout. The game’s maze, protagonist, and ghosts adorn the gold-plated case, stainless steel caseback, and black rubber strap. It might just be the most playful watch we’ve seen in a long time after one very serious year.
