TOKYO, July 20, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced today the release of the A100WEPC, a
collaboration model featuring the iconic PAC-MAN game that is popular around
the world. The A100WEPC is based on the recent reissue of the F-100 digital
watch, which was originally released in 1978.
The PAC-MAN arcade game was first released in 1980 by BANDAI NAMCO
Entertainment Inc. (then Namco), and it has countless fans around the world.
The F-100 watch was released in 1978 and was the first Casio quartz watch in a
resin case, delivering advanced functionality with a stopwatch and calendar functions.
The new A100WEPC watch is based on the recently released A100 watch, which
reprises the design of the original F-100, including the unique four-button
front layout. The styling is designed to evoke the fun, retro look of the
PAC-MAN game. The watch face features colorful pixelated PAC-MAN and ghost
characters, and the center 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 color 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.
