Thirty years ago, the world heard the familiar “beep-beep” of the PlayStation for the first time, and gaming culture has never been the same since. To mark the anniversary of this legendary console, PlayStation has partnered with watch brand ANICORN to release a collection that blends style, technology, and nostalgia — the perfect gift for any true fan.
The centerpiece of the collection is the limited-edition mechanical anniversary watch, inspired by the original 1994 PlayStation. Only 300 pieces worldwide, each individually numbered — this is more than a watch; it’s a piece of history. The dial and strap feature the iconic △〇×□ symbols, while the hands are shaped like the Start and Select buttons, paying tribute to the controller that became legendary. The PlayStation logo adorns the top of the case, and the crown is engraved with the power symbol, evoking the thrill of turning on the console for the first time. Powered by a Miyota 9039 mechanical movement with a 42-hour power reserve, the 316L stainless steel case with sapphire glass is water-resistant up to 50 meters, and the FKM strap ensures comfort for everyday wear.
But ANICORN didn’t stop there: each mechanical watch comes with a Memory Capsule — a modern take on the original PlayStation memory card with NFC technology. A single tap on the capsule transports the wearer to a digital Memory Board, an interactive space to store gaming and life stories. The collector-grade metal case, inspired by classic PlayStation hardware, adds a tactile thrill: unscrewing the lid makes you feel like a true explorer unlocking a secret save.
In addition to the mechanical watch, the collection includes two Play Symbol quartz models — Dark Mode and Light Mode. Inspired by the modern △〇×□ symbols, they turn telling time into a playful experience: floating symbols animate with every wrist movement. Dark Mode channels the sleek feel of contemporary PlayStation interfaces, while Light Mode offers a bright, creative interpretation. Both feature Miyota 2035 quartz movements, 316L stainless steel cases, genuine leather straps, and 5ATM water resistance.
The PlayStation x ANICORN collection launches on December 19, 2025, exclusively on the ANICORN website. The mechanical anniversary watch is priced at $780, while the Play Symbol quartz models are available for $250 each, making them a coveted purchase for any gaming and watch enthusiast.
This collection is more than just a way to tell time. It’s a tribute to gamers, gaming culture, and the history of PlayStation, a stylish accessory, and a true collector’s item to pass on to future generations of players.
