Limited edition Metal Gear Solid 4 watch surfaces

Need some way to express your adoration for Solid Snake when not inside the house? Then check out this limited edition piece, would you? The Metal Gear Solid 4 watch will reportedly arrive individually numbered from 1 to 500 alongside a "Konami certificate of authenticity approved by Hideo Kojima." You'll also get a nifty gift box to hold the water resistant timepiece in when it's not flanking your wrist, but only if you manage to score one before the legions of other hardcore fans do. Oddly enough, there's some sort of "pre-order" going on in the read link below, but we wouldn't count on that being the most reliable method for procuring the £99.99 ($197) device when it's released in October.

I can dig it for that price.

But I'd rather wear my Seiko or Oakley Timebomb.

Unless it doubles as a Codec, I don't want it.

Looks like a very regular watch to me. They should have made it more MGS4-specific.

[retro77 @ Jun 20th 2008 2:51PM]

grats Orca. You guys can't take jokes too well.

[xValentine @ Jun 21st 2008 12:32AM]

Jokes are meant to be funny. Not sarcastic.

when are we going to see limited addition guns? :)

I've never played MGS4 but for the price, it seems like a decent watch.

I always see pretty substantial, impressive-looking watches that I want to own, but they're invariably at least $600 and often several thousand. Sorry, I don't care that much. I'll keep wearing my $20 Oakley from steepandcheap.com.

If this doesn't look super cheesy in person, $200 is a decent buy.

That crown looks a little uncomfortable. Okay, major peeve of mine. Why do sites allow you to click on something to presumably get a larger, more detailed image, but when you click on it the !@#$% thing the image the comes up is only like 0.00009% larger than the !@#$% thumbnail!!!

4 Fans....Explains why it sold a million in europe eh?
