Casio Teases An Upcoming Retro A100WEPC PAC-MAN Collaboration Digital Watch
Casio has announced the release of the A100WEPC, a collaboration model featuring the iconic PAC-MAN game based on the recently released A100 watch, which reprises the design of the original F-100, including the unique four-button front layout.

The watch face features colourful pixelated PAC-MAN and ghost characters, and the centre ILLUMINATOR logo is rendered using the PAC-MAN font. The face design faithfully replicates the PAC-MAN game screen, down to details like the pink line marking the exit of the nest from which the ghosts emerge.
The gold-plated watch case is inspired by the colour of the PAC-MAN arcade game cabinet. The top watch band is laser etched with a rendering of PAC-MAN being chased by ghosts, and the reverse scene with PAC-MAN chasing ghosts is rendered on the bottom band. The case back also features the PAC-MAN logo and icons.

The watch comes with special packaging imprinted with PAC-MAN character icons and the game score screen, to deliver the full look of the PAC-MAN game. No official word of when the collaborative digital timepiece will be released, but it’s scheduled to be available in Japan this August.
