Pokémon is celebrating its 30th birthday this year. Feeling old yet? To celebrate, a new collaboration with Casio was recently announced — meet the GA-110PKM-7A. And no, you can’t have one, despite its relatively affordable $270 (R4,430) price tag.
Okay, maybe you can have one if you can convince the folks at Chrono24 to import it for you (and you have the cash, obviously).
Don’t try to catch them all, you just need one
This limited edition G-Shock looks rather similar to other G-Shocks, except for all the pocket monsters adorning the face, rear, and strap. It features splashes of the iconic red, blue, and green colour scheme from the series’ original 1996 release on the watch hands, buttons, dial, and bezel.
There are apparently 30 different Pokémon featured on the watch’s strap, although we didn’t bother counting them. The 9 o’clock inset dial is a rather obvious nod to the Pokéball with a cool little Pikachu-shaped indicator. Flip it over to see the engraved case back commemorating the 30-year milestone.
As for the watch bits, there’s no reason not to expect the usual toughness you would from any other G-Shock. It can withstand up to 200m of static water pressure, weighs only 72g, and features LED illumination.
Casio isn’t saying how many it plans to produce, so you may not want to delay begging Chrono24 to reserve yours. Pre-orders open tomorrow (1 July 2026) in supported territories.
