Casio launches limited edition G-Shock x Dragon Quest VII

Casio has announced a limited-edition G-Shock collaboration to mark the upcoming re-release of Dragon Quest VII Reimagined. The new digital timepiece, based on the classic DW-5600, will launch exclusively in Japan ahead of the game’s release on February 5, 2026.

The watch features a navy, bright blue and orange colour scheme inspired by the game’s logo. Several visual nods to Dragon Quest VII are woven into the design, including a ship silhouette on the lower-right corner of the bezel and multiple Slime motifs. The franchise’s iconic Slime character also appears when the LED backlight is activated. The Dragon Quest VII Reimagined logo is engraved on the stainless steel case back.

Staying true to the DW-5600’s rugged design, the watch offers a rectangular digital display and standard G-Shock functions such as a stopwatch, countdown timer, multi-function alarm and hourly time signal. It includes a fully automatic calendar valid until 2099, accuracy rated at ±15 seconds per month, 200-metre water resistance and an estimated five-year battery life.

In Japan, the Casio G-Shock x Dragon Quest VII Reimagined DW-5600X is priced at ¥18,700 (around $118). Pre-orders through retailers such as SHIPS and Square Enix have already sold out, despite purchase limits of one unit per customer. The watch is scheduled to go on sale on February 3, 2026, and will be packaged in custom branding with a collectible tin.
