Time in the Jungle: Celebrating Kimba’s 60th Anniversary with a Limited Edition Watch
Hey fellow otaku, anime lovers, and Tezuka fans — gather ’round, because today we’re exploring something extra special. Picture this: a wristwatch that’s more than just a timepiece. It’s a tribute, a piece of history, and a wearable emblem of fandom. Yes — we’re talking about the Kimba the White Lion 60th Anniversary Limited Edition Watch.
🦁 Why This Watch Exists (And Why You’ll Want It)
Back in 1965, Kimba the White Lion (originally known in Japan as Janguru Taitei or Jungle Emperor Leo) made waves as one of the first color TV anime series in Japan. To mark six incredible decades since that original broadcast, the creators commissioned a special commemorative watch. The dial (or caratula) is finely engraved with the “Emperor of the Jungle” logo, and each piece carries a unique edition number — starting from “1965.”
Think about the symbolism: 1965 as the birth year, now frozen in metal, etched in design. For us fans, it’s not just merch — it’s a time capsule.

- Material: Case, back cover, and band: Stainless steel winding case.
- Case size (approx.): 47 x 39.8 x 12.8 mm thick.
- Wrist circumference (approx.): S = 14 cm, M = 16 cm, L = 18 cm.
- Movement: Quartz (within ±15 seconds of the average monthly difference).
- Enhanced waterproofing for everyday use (10 ATM waterproof).
- Made in Japan.
If you’re like me — someone who sees anime not just as entertainment but as art, history, and identity — this watch is more than a gadget. It’s a bridge between decades: Tezuka’s dreams, the 1965 broadcast, and your own fandom today.
Whether you snag one or just admire it from afar, I hope you feel that same thrill every time you glance at your wrist. Because for us, time is more than what the hands show — it’s the story behind the face.
