Casio launches two brand-new collab watches, including a G-Steel model
Casio has just launched a new G-Shock collaboration tied to The Mandalorian and Grogu, with two themed watches based on existing models from its lineup. The release goes live across the US, UK, and parts of Europe starting May 1, 2026, ahead of the film’s theatrical debut on May 22.
The two-watch collection includes a GM-2100 G-Steel model and a BA-110 Baby-G variant. The GM-2100 has a metallic finish inspired by the Beskar armor worn by the Mandalorian's character. It uses a forged metal bezel and the brand’s core guard structure. It gets standard G-Shock durability featutes, including shock resistance and a hybrid analog-digital display.
The BA-110 takes a different direction with a bright green color scheme as a reference to Grogu. It uses the familiar Baby-G form factor, which is more compact but still built around the same shock-resistant construction. The dial layout gets the BA-110’s layered analog-digital design, with multiple sub-displays and a way busier visual design language compared to the GM-2100.
A major addition in this release is the bundled watch stand. Each unit ships with a foldable "Bounty Hunter ID" card that uses magnets to convert into a rigid display stand. This is the first time G-Shock has included a transformable accessory like this in a collab.
The campaign also includes a short film centered on a father-daughter duo heading to a screening. While the campaign is more about storytelling, the actual product strategy is straightforward as it gets: take two established models, apply themed finishes, and bundle them with a collectible.
If you're considering one of these two models, the decision largely comes down to design preference. The GM-2100 has a more neutral, wearable look with subtle references, while the BA-110 is more "out-there" and character-driven. Availability is limited to select stores and online channels in supported regions. Official pricing should be revealed soon enough as well.

Kingdom Collective UK / Casio (via press release)
Tying into two exclusive timepieces from their range, one that’s a perfect match to The Mandalorian’s Beskar steel and one for beloved Grogu, this 360 campaign is launching across the US, UK, and EU with a heart-warming new custom spot.
G-Shock, the pioneer of tough timekeeping, is thrilled to announce a collaboration with Lucasfilm’s highly anticipated release “Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu” that lands in theaters from May 22nd. Launching simultaneously across the US, UK and EU, this exclusive campaign merges the rich, expansive lore of “The Mandalorian and Grogu” with the uncompromising shock resistance and durability that has defined G-SHOCK since 1983.
The campaign is centred around a new custom spot that showcases a father and daughter duo, on their way to a fan screening of the new movie, kept on time by their G-Steel and Baby-G watches; two specially selected models that pay homage to the iconic duo, offering fans the ultimate "bounty hunter-ready" gear.
The Timepieces: Forged for the Galaxy
Built to withstand the toughest conditions, from the Outer Rim to everyday adventures, G-SHOCK selected two distinct models for the campaign:
GM-2100 G-Steel: Just like the legendary durability of Mandalorian armor, this GM-2100 model aesthetic is reminiscent of Beskar steel. The watch features a forged metal bezel and a rugged, industrial finish that perfectly mirrors Din Djarin's protective plating, backed by G-SHOCK's trusted core guard structure for ultimate shock resistance.
BA-110 Baby-G: Evocative of the spirit and distinctive colouring of the galaxy’s most beloved foundling, the BA-110 Baby-G watch features a green colourway. Though compact in its design, it retains the absolute toughness and resilience expected from a G-SHOCK, making it a perfect companion piece.
Innovative Bounty Hunter ID Watch Stand
In a first for a G-SHOCK collaboration, both watches are supplied with a highly collectible, officially licensed Bounty Hunter ID Card Watch Stand.
Designed for fans and collectors, this innovative accessory initially folds completely flat to display a character-specific Bounty Hunter ID. Through integrated magnets, the card seamlessly transforms into a rigid, 3D watch stand, providing the perfect way to present and hold the timepiece when it is not being worn.
A Campaign Built on Connection
To accompany the product launch, G-SHOCK has worked in collaboration with Lucasfilm to create a poignant advertising campaign. The advert highlights the profound bond between father and child, mirroring the found family relationship between The Mandalorian and Grogu. The campaign also shines a light on the wider Star Wars fan community, exploring how these intergenerational stories connect fans across the globe.
"Merging the unmatched toughness of G-Shock with the incredible universe of ‘The Mandalorian and Grogu’ wasn't just a project for me, it was a passion. We wanted to build a collaboration that delivered a truly bounty hunter-ready timepiece, built to survive the harshness of space. But the real magic happens when this gear reaches the fans. That’s why we’re bringing their voices and adventures directly into our campaign content, ensuring this collaboration celebrates the community that makes it all possible."
Warren Halliwell, Senior Marketing Content & Campaign Manager
“As ‘The Mandalorian and Grogu’ arrives in theaters this May, we’re thrilled to collaborate with G-Shock to promote this theatrical event. This campaign captures the shared joy of fandom through a father and daughter heading to the movies, while celebrating iconic elements of the story with designs fans can carry with them on their own journeys.”

Availability: “The Mandalorian and Grogu” limited promotional G-SHOCK collection will be available at flagship G-SHOCK stores, select retailers, and online across the US, UK, and the European Union starting 1st May 2026.
