One of the watches will be modeled after Kirito and Eugeo. The other will take inspiration from Asuna and Yuuki. Both watches will feature quotes from the characters in English on the back side and the packaging box. Each watch will be powered by a solar-charged battery that can run for up to eight months.

People residing outside Japan can also place pre-orders on the Amnibus web store. They can click the orange pre-order button, then head towards the cart page and add the items to the Buyee widget.

The Sword Art Online franchise has been receiving more premium merchandise with exorbitant prices. In July 2023, Genco released a massive 1/4 scale figure of Asuna in her “Stacia, Goddess of Creation” appearance which was priced at a whopping 132,000 yen.

Pre-orders for the Sword Art Online Independent watches will close on December 20, 2023. Arma Bianca will ship the items in mid-July 2024.
