Mario’s collaboration game has ticked up a notch, thanks to this expensive new Tag Heuer Super Mario watch.
Revealed today, the Tag Heuer Connected x Super Mario watch is a limited-production version of the Tag Heuer Connected featuring a bold red design to match our favorite Italian plumber. It also classic iconography from the series around the rim of the face, with a mushroom, pipe, and star on show. The clasp at the back and side dials also display the classic M from Mario’s cap.

The three displays shown include one featuring a step counter and Mario waving, a darker metallic design with 2D artwork of Mario’s face, and a retro design with time displayed in old-school blocks. For all that, you’ll need to be willing to drop a hefty $2,150 when a limited number become available on July 15th.
It makes use of the watch’s Wear OS to display several different Mario-themed watch faces, all of which will be exclusive to the model for a limited time. After that expires, Tag Heuer Connected owners will be able to download the Mario displays to their devices.
