Sanrio is working with Casio to release a new Hello Kitty 50th Anniversary G-Shock watch that features motifs from the popular character. The watch costs 18,700 yen (or approximately $122.40), and it will go on sale on October 30, 2024 in Japan at the Casio official online store. It is unknown if it could eventually appear in other regions.
The new Casio G-Shock features the Hello Kitty name above the screen, and the character’s bow appears on the screen when the backlight is on. The Hello Kitty 50th anniversary logo is also depicted on the back of the watch, and the same logo is used in the box for the collaboration watch. The watch not only celebrates Hello Kitty’s 50th anniversary, but the 50th anniversary of the first Casio watch being released.
