It's time to give your wrist a retro twist with these new watches based on three Sega powerhouses - the Mega Drive, Sega Saturn, and the Dreamcast. According to our friends over at Famitsu, they're coming to us from a Japanese company called SuperGroupies, who are a 'collaborative fashion' company, and they've managed to capture the essence of the original consoles in such a small form that is instantly recognisable to any super nerd like you or I.
Check out the pictures in this article and tell me you're not excited about these watches. Look at the Mega Drive variant, with a cartridge slot up at 12 o'clock and a reset button at 3 o'clock. I reckon I'd be using that reset button all the time if it was real!

The Sega Saturn watch has the same features and a power button at the 9 o'clock mark, and the Dreamcast timepiece has a disc door at 12. I love the look of the Dreamcast watch with its gunmetal finish and colourful controller buttons as part of the face design. I love the inclusions of the different D-pads on the Mega Drive and Saturn watches too. These really take me back, especially when you realise that the boxes they come in look like the original boxes of the consoles they're based on too!
I've had a look on the SuperGroupies website, and you can purchase these watches from anywhere in the world. They're priced at ¥27,500, which works out at about £127 and $174, and you can pre-order now on the SuperGroupies website!
