Arcade Game-Inspired Watches

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Romain Jerome Introduces the 'Pac-Man' Level III Timepiece

— May 23, 2018 — Tech
Watch label Romain Jerome prepares to drop its 'Pac-Man' Level III watch, marking its third timepiece inspired by the classic arcade game. This is another tribute to the famous video game, but it also explores the label's playful spirit. The watch is emphasized by its black dial, which is reflective with a mirror-polished finish. The titanium bezel shows a visual of a maze where Pac-Man hunts for fruit and Pac-Dots. This is constructed from 27 components all crafted by hand and separated into three different levels on the dial.

The standout feature are the raised walls of the device that are complete with black lacquer to further enhance the three-dimensional effect. The Pac-Man Level III watch is encased in a 46 mm titanium case that has an automated rewinding movement to allow wearers to read time from the middle of the piece. For visual contrast, there is a blue rubber strap wrapping around the black case and additional blue accents on the dial. The watch is limited to only 80 units and will be available in June.
Trend Themes
1. Gaming-inspired Watches - Opportunity for watch companies to tap into the growing gaming industry and appeal to younger audiences through playful design and limited editions.
2. Handcrafted Timepieces - Handcrafted and limited edition timepieces offer exclusivity and a unique selling point for luxury watch brands in a competitive market.
3. Three-dimensional Watch Design - Incorporating three-dimensional design elements in watchmaking has the potential to captivate consumers and differentiate luxury watches from traditional timepieces.
Industry Implications
1. Luxury Watches - High-end watch companies can cater to consumers' desire for exclusivity and novelty by creating limited edition, gaming-inspired watches.
2. Gaming Industry - Gaming companies can potentially expand their brand into the world of luxury watches by partnering with watchmakers to create gaming-inspired timepieces.
3. Handcrafted Products - Handcrafted timepieces can appeal to consumers who appreciate the artistry, craftsmanship, and exclusivity that comes with limited edition, luxury watches.
