CASIO Celebrates PAC-MAN's 45th Anniversary with Special Edition Watches
By Editor_wr Last updated Feb 28, 2025
CASIO is celebrating the 45th anniversary of PAC-MAN, one of the most beloved arcade games in history, with the launch of a special PAC-MAN collaboration watch collection. Featuring four unique digital timepieces, this collection brings the nostalgic charm of classic arcade gaming to the wrist, combining CASIO's signature vintage watch designs with the vibrant aesthetics of PAC-MAN and its pixelated world.
First released in 1980, PAC-MAN became a global phenomenon, cementing itself as one of the most successful arcade games of all time. Decades later, its influence remains undeniable, with 'PAC-MAN Fever' still capturing the hearts of gaming enthusiasts worldwide.
'PAC-MAN has been a cultural icon for over four decades, and this collaboration brings together two brands that defined the 1980s in their own way,' said Takashi SEIMIYA, the managing director at CASIO Middle East and Africa. 'These watches are a tribute to the golden age of gaming, designed for both longtime PAC-MAN fans and a new generation of retro gaming enthusiasts.'
Four Designs That Capture the Spirit of PAC-MAN: A168WEPC & F-91WPC – These models incorporate PAC-MAN and the four GHOSTS (Blinky, Inky, Clyde, and Pinky) into a bold, colourful face layout with vivid neon hues. The signature 'WAKA WAKA' sound effect from the game is featured on the A168WEPC's clasp cover and LCD display, as well as the F-91WPC's band loop, adding a playful, interactive touch.

ABL-100WEPC & CA-53WPC – Designed to resemble PAC-MAN game screens, these models feature the iconic maze and characters running across the watch face. The ABL-100WEPC features a sleek, black monochromatic design reminiscent of early arcade displays, while the CA-53WPC, with its yellow bezel, captures the look of a classic arcade cabinet.
Each watch is engraved with PAC-MAN branding on the case back and comes in unique special-edition packaging, making them must-have collector's items.
Now available across CASIO retailers in UAE, the PAC-MAN x CASIO collaboration is the ultimate blend of gaming nostalgia and everyday functionality, appealing to both retro gaming lovers and vintage watch enthusiasts.

♈ Aries Daily Horoscope for June 23, 2025
Big Aries energy meets big decisions. Are you ready to choose your next adventure? Today's vibe is bold, fiery, and full of potential—just the way you like it. The universe is handing you the mic, but what you say next could set the tone for the rest of your month. Choose your words (and your battles) wisely. Career: Your ambition is peaking — great for brainstorming or pitching, not so great for paperwork or waiting on approvals. Don't get discouraged if things don't move at your speed. Stay focused on the long game and avoid picking battles that aren't worth it. Love: You're radiating intensity — which can either charm or overwhelm. If single, let your energy invite rather than overpower. In a relationship? Avoid jumping to conclusions. A little softness can go a long way today. Body: Your body is craving movement — but don't overdo it. A quick workout or dance break might help burn off that restlessness. If you've been ignoring little aches, it's time to show your body some respect. Mental Health: Your mind's in go-mode, which can lead to overthinking or impulse decisions. Hit pause before reacting — especially in emotional convos. Meditation, deep breaths, or even screaming into a pillow (we won't judge) could help.

Career: You're feeling ambitious, and it's a good day to pitch that idea or take the lead in meetings. Just be sure you're listening as much as you're speaking. Collaboration will earn you more respect than domination. Love: Your charm is magnetic right now, and someone definitely notices. If you're single, don't be afraid to make the first move. In a relationship? Surprise your partner with something spontaneous—they'll love your fiery unpredictability. Body: Time to burn off that excess energy! A fast-paced workout (or even a mini dance party) can help release some tension and improve your focus. You'll feel more grounded afterward. Mental Health: You might be a little impatient today, especially if things aren't moving fast enough for your liking. Breathe. Control what you can, and don't spiral about the rest.
