Aniplex opened up pre-orders for a Fate/Grand Order watch that draws inspiration from Jeanne d’Arc Alter. Pre-orders are open from February 27, 2022 to May 1, 2022, and it will ship out in mid-August 2022. The watch will cost 45,000 JPY ($388.35) for the watch alone, while the set with the watch stand will cost 48,000 JPY ($414.25).
The Jeanne d’Arc Alter Fate/Grand Order watch features motifs from the character and her design. Its color scheme matches her armor, with lots of black, red, and dark indigo. The red on the bottom of the watch face looks like fire. According to the website, this is supposed to bring to mind her flames of revenge, as well as her Noble Phantasm. The watch face also has the dragon from her flag. As for the hands, they look like her swords.
Previous Fate/Grand Order watches from Seiko and Aniplex included ones that draw inspiration from Artoria Caster and Sengo Muramasa. The site also teased that the next watch will be one that looks like Katsushika Hokusai. These past watches are no longer available via the Aniplex website.
Fate/Grand Order is readily available worldwide on mobile devices. The Jeanne d’Arc Alter watch is open for pre-order until May 1, 2022, and it has a release window of mid-August 2022.
