"Ultraman Tiga" 30th Anniversary Watch Lets You Switch Forms with Three Interchangeable Straps

As a true titan of Japanese tokusatsu, the Ultraman franchise remains a cultural powerhouse. With new series constantly dropping and legions of dedicated fans, the iconic hero is celebrating its massive 60th anniversary this year.

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the fan-favorite series Ultraman Tiga, a new limited-edition watch is dropping, and its main gimmick is straight out of the show: three interchangeable straps that let you switch between Tiga's forms. Priced at ¥29,700 and limited to just 2,000 units, pre-orders kick off on June 4, 2026, via the official Fulton Japan online store.

First hitting screens in 1996, Ultraman Tiga tells the story of G.U.T.S. (Global Unlimited Task Squad), a team formed to defend humanity from monstrous threats, and the ancient giant of light, Ultraman Tiga, who awakens to aid them.

The series was a major milestone, arriving 15 years after *Ultraman 80* and created to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the original *Ultra Q* and *Ultraman*. It was designed as a fresh take on the franchise for the 21st century.

The watch's standout feature is a 3-way interchangeable strap system inspired by Tiga's groundbreaking "Type Change" ability. You can swap between three distinct styles to match any situation:

Metal Bracelet (Multi Type)

Red Rubber Strap (Power Type)

Purple Rubber Strap (Sky Type)

The Power Type features a rugged red rubber strap that securely grips the wrist. It’s thick, tough, and perfect for high-activity days or when you want to project a bit of strength.

The Sky Type comes with a lightweight purple rubber strap designed for mobility and all-day comfort. Its soft, flexible fit is ideal for a fast-paced modern lifestyle.

Plus, you can mix and match the two colored straps for a stylish two-tone look, giving you even more ways to customize.

The watch face is packed with details, featuring a red outer ring inspired by Power Type. The background sports both the *Ultraman* 60th anniversary logo and *Ultraman Tiga* 30th anniversary text, while the lower half is encircled by a golden pattern mimicking Tiga's chest armor. A blue crystal at the 6 o'clock position represents his iconic Color Timer, and three diamonds at 3 o'clock mark the 30-year milestone.

The caseback is engraved with the *Ultraman Tiga* logo and a unique serial number out of 2,000, certifying its limited-edition status.

The watch comes in a premium collector's box made from high-quality white PU leather, foil-stamped in gold with the Sparklence transformation item and the 30th-anniversary logo. It's a display piece in itself and perfect for safekeeping.

The package also includes a full-color commemorative Tiga warranty card and an acrylic display stand, so you can show off your watch when you're not wearing it.
