Seiko have teamed up with Sega to release a beautiful watch to mark 65 years of one of the biggest and most influential names in gaming. The timepiece comes in black and silver with numbers in the trademark Sega font that we've seen on plastic game cases since our youth. There's even the Sonic and Sega logo's included on the face too.

On the back of the watch is a 65th anniversary logo and a limited edition number. They both come in a commemorative anniversary box with a the motto 'empower the gamers' engraved into the lid. They really do pay homage to the incredible work that Sega have done over the past 6 and a half decades.

These watches fall into the category of wearables that I like to call 'covert nerd attire'. You could wear these to work or on a date and not instantly get outed as being a Sonic fan boy, while still feeding your inner geek and getting nods from other nerds in the know.

But how much do you need to shell out for one of these fantastic arm clocks? Well, they cost ¥71,500, which is around £336, $456, and €386. Head to the Kadokawa website to order yours!
