With the release of the second Evangelion movie mere months away, it should come as no surprise that additional merchandise is beginning to flood in from the official Eva store.
This Unit 01 watch boasts an impressive LED and NERV engraving and can be had for a mere ï¿¥24,990(~$260).

I would only buy this if I can rip the watch and reveal flesh inside it...
It would be a bonus if it can generate AT field :)
Lmao. James Bond would be jealous. xD
I rather not think about having a watch. Every watch I've ever had either gets spoiled, stolen or abused till beyond repair. I already have so many things to tell time with, like my hand phone, iPod, PSP, computer, etc. so why do I need a watch? Let alone a $260 watch.....
Oh yeah, I'm sure you can find this anywhere at some black market for really cheap.
me want a new NERV logo.
i think a red or white version would have been better than this... c,")
I love Evangelion, I really do. It's just that I have no interest in this.
Now, if they made a Replica of Rin's Rideback watch, I wouldn't mind paying this price.
That Rideback watch does look like a real watch after all, I'd agree with you, except for it's still a little too much. :/
this is expensive.. too expensive..
damn with that much money, I could buy a PsP and a Ds. Yeah id rather go with that.
I'm very dissapointed by how this looks. Seems to be mostly cheap plastic and even if it's not cheap the look and feel, as far as I can tell, is about the same as a watch you buy for a kid at a toy store for under $10.
Engraving and LED is nice but it simply can't make up for the overall feel that this is a toy and not a watch.
My G-Shock cries at being compared to this. :P
You guys didn't know?
It is bulletproof, remote controls the eva hidden undergroud in NERV Japan (because we all know Japan has Gundams in their airports and Evas in their basement), and, as if this weren't enough, it toasts bread for you.
$250? Gosh! So cheap for such an overpriced luxury!
its like their trying to get me to fund their evangelion movies myself with all their eva merchandice. sorry about the misspellings i went to school in oklahoma
We have heard that a half million children have died. ,
sigh...I would not spend 1/2 the money that this is listed as...why? Among the fact that many people have pointed out already, it looks cheap. Unfortunately I didn't watch the anime when I was in a position to "appreciate it", or I might be willing to pay $130 for it...but I digress...
LED display being decently cool enough, as someone else mentioned, it should be red. Also, it looks rather limited in application for a watch...my last watch had two digital clocks, alarm, date, stop watch, water resistant, and looked nice enough for under $20.
Oh and it's purple.
uh....
Eva 01 *is* purple
I guess I'm still a kid at heart. I think this watch is awesome. I'd buy one if I had a spare $260, for sure!
looks to much like plastic
Its purple and looks cheap
The watch display is Epic Fail because it is advertised as having a white time display screen but in actuality it has blue.
or it changes color!
Looks like some 'made in china' product out of the gift shop of an amusement park. Plasticcy..
I would consider buying if it was $20, anything more you're gonna regret later.
$260.. no way
it almost resembles some sort of futuristic weird G-Shock kind of watch. Depending on whether the display readout glows in the dark or not I'd probably buy one too... at this point I'm on the fence, really.
This looks so freeking sweet I would get it if not for the price. The plastic strap and clasp seems similar to cheap watches, making this seem hugely overpriced.
i was thinking it may be just the photo it might be that hightech sports watch material thats very shock resistant and not break too easy.
The reason I don't want it is cause it reminds me of a cheap sports watch I owned years ago that went for like $20. Makes me more inclined to not pay such a high price for something simply colored all Eva like.
yeah i know, ive got the feeling its something thatd youd have to see hands on before you bought it.
Upon checking the specs, the strap is of ABS which sould hold up well. And seeing as the display is LED and not LCD, the price becomes more reasonable.
i cant decide if ill buy this, damnit! the thing is ive paid more money for a watch that wasnt eva. is it a good watch like one of those high-tech sports watches? also where would i get from for shipping to the us or would i have to get it shipped to a friend in japan and pick it up there? hmm i could do that and come up with an excuse to visit and go see the movie. thatd be sweet!
Also wtf at the canned bread at the bottom of the page, had me loling for a few minutes here XD

the sad thing is already knew about the canned bread... before i saw the article lol
Eh.. It looks like its made of cheap stuff. Do not want.
LOL wut? DO FUKKEN WANT!! X3
I think the display looks pretty damn nice. If it weren't Eva (or anime, for that matter) merchandise I'd probably buy it.
oh noes, you are (not) one of us!
I could potentially see what you did there.
Hard working troll is hard working~
FAILED troll is FAAAAIIIILLED....
Spam troll is spaming...
Seriously, if you don't know what Evangelion is it's just gonna look like a cheap,tacky made-in-Singapore knock off of a piece of kiddy-crap made in H.K.....that was supposed to be an infommercial product but got cancelled because the CEO fled to Mexico.
yeah if you live in backwoods kentucky, honestly though would you wear a $260 watch out on train or some shit? i think the only places that you would wear this thing would be anime conventions and such as that i have several watches that i dont wear because theyre that expensive.
Looks like something from a mcdonalds kids meal...
I agree with you
The functions and the quality might be nice but it looks just a little bit too toy-like. I mean I like collectible toys I just don't like to wear them.
I'd buy it... if it weren't $250. Seriously? Come on now.
as much as i would like to have one...the price could kill my wallet
= ="... looks like it's "made in China". Would rather spend the money on a watch made from metal and looks better than this.
Id rather spend that money on other more worth wild anime merchandise
The build quality looks decent in my opinion but the design? Awesome display though, if they were clever they would've made an option in there to make the lighting switch to red. Something you'd expect at least but they probably haven't done.
Maybe you've caught me wearing a watch similar to this when I was 10.
If i had that kind of money to spare i would definatly get this
