Casio G-Shock Unveils Exclusive To Be Hero X Collaboration Watches for China

A significant collaboration merging advanced watchmaking with vibrant anime culture has been officially announced. Casio's renowned G-Shock brand is partnering with the acclaimed Chinese anime series, To Be Hero X. This exciting news, revealed on Weibo, introduces three exclusive, limited-edition G-Shock timepieces designed specifically for the Chinese market, generating immediate enthusiasm among both anime fans and watch collectors.

A Trio of Unique Designs Inspired by To Be Hero X

Each of these striking new models is built upon popular G-Shock platforms: the GA-110HDS-7A, GA-2100AS-5A, and GA-2100-1A. They are infused with distinctive design elements directly inspired by the beloved characters and thematic aspects of To Be Hero X.

Leading the collection is the GA-110HDS-7APRT. This model features a dynamic blue and white hybrid aesthetic. Its strap is uniquely etched with the anime's premiere date and time, while a phosphorescent dial ensures visibility. It also includes essential world time support. Positioned as the premium offering, this model is priced at approximately 1,090 CNY, which is about $152 USD.

Next, the GA-2100AS-5APRT watch channels the essence of the character Lucky Cyan. It showcases an arresting blue-green pattern gracefully applied over a beige bio-resin strap and the signature octagonal bezel. Engineered with Casio’s robust Carbon Core Guard structure, it also boasts a double LED backlight and global time functionality. This model retails for about 990 CNY, approximately $138 USD.

Completing the trio, the GA-2100-1APRT pays homage to Lin Ling, known as 'The Commoner,' through a sleek black and gold design. This accessible yet sophisticated timepiece includes practical features such as five daily alarms and a precise 1/100-second stopwatch, making it the most affordable option at roughly 890 CNY, about $124 USD.

Availability and Global Interest

Every watch in this highly anticipated collaboration will be presented in custom packaging, significantly enhancing their collectible value. Fans eager to acquire these unique pieces can mark their calendars for August 2025, when they are set to be released exclusively within China. While official sales outside of China are not planned for these specific limited editions, enthusiasts globally can still explore the base G-Shock models through Casio's official Amazon store.

This landmark collaboration not only celebrates the growing influence of To Be Hero X in contemporary pop culture but also exemplifies a compelling fusion of cutting-edge anime artistry with Casio’s renowned heritage of rugged, innovative watch design. It promises to captivate a broad audience across the fashion and anime realms.
