CASIO VINTAGE - PAC-MAN Collaboration ModelThis new model results from collaboration between CASIO VINTAGE and PAC-MAN, the popular game from BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment lnc. The base model is the A100 series, which will also go on sale at the same time as this model. It is a discerning design that expresses the world of PAC-MAN with the entire watch, done in a distinctive design that incorporates the PAC-MAN game screen on the face glass. The square digital display that shows the current time also serves as a PAC-MAN ghost room. The metal band has a black ion-plated (IP) finish, with different design characters laserengraved on the upper and lower band pieces. The upper band shows PAC-MAN eating a cookie while escaping from a normal ghost, while the lower band shows PAC-MAN, after eating a big cookie, chasing a ghost. Features and functions include calendar and stopwatch capabilities, along with everyday wear water resistance and LED light illumination for easy reading in the dark. The band features a slide-type clasp that lets you easily adjust the band length without special tools. The back cover is engraved with a game screen motif graphic, while the package design uses the image of an arcade game. The watch also includes a number of special items that befit a special model such as this.
PAC-MANReleased in 1980 by BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment lnc. (formerly Namco). With a game concept anyone could grasp - eat! - a highly refined game system, colorful graphics, and bright, poppy characters running through a maze, it became a huge hit around the world, and both the game and its characters came to represent Japan. In 2005, it was recognized by Guinness World Records as the "most successful coin-operated game." Currently, PAC-MAN can be seen in various endeavors with the theme "Be PAC-TIVE!!"
