To celebrate the next chapter in the Star Wars movie offerings, please allow me to present some Star Wars/George Lucas related watches....

Firstly Boba Fett...who doesn't like the Fett?

Must not leave out R2-D2....great as a droid...not so as a watch...difficult to tell the time under that dome...

Really like the case back on this...

My trio of Star Wars related watches..all by the same company from Japan...

Bonus feature...another iconic George Lucas creation....

All fun watches...thank you for viewing and May The Force Be With You...

Key Points from the Discussion

The Star Wars watches featured were produced by a Japanese company called GSX under their "Smart" range, which specialized in movie and character tie-ins.
The R2-D2 watch, while visually appealing as a collectible, presents practical challenges in telling time due to its dome-shaped crystal.
The post generated enthusiasm for the upcoming Star Wars movie, demonstrating the crossover appeal of pop culture within the watch collecting community.

Yes I am a fanboy...

These watches were made by a company called GSX. "Smart" is the designation for one of their range of watches. They did quite a bit of movie/character tie-ins under the "Smart" range.
