Snackgirls editorial note
Kirari: The yellow color works because it ties directly into MOTHER3’s sunflower-field imagery instead of feeling like a random bright variant.
AIKO: The practical detail is the sales method: it is a lottery application window, not a simple first-come store drop.
Hobonichi’s MOTHER Project has revealed a MOTHER3 20th-anniversary G-SHOCK DW-5600 model. Inside Games also reported the lottery-sale announcement on July 14.
A yellow DW-5600 for MOTHER3’s 20th anniversary
The official page says the watch is based on the traditional square-face DW-5600 line. Its bright yellow color is tied to the sunflower-field imagery from MOTHER3.
The dial carries the MOTHER3 logo, while red accent coloring connects it back to the wider MOTHER series. It is positioned as a usable watch as well as a game-anniversary collectible.
Lottery applications run from July 17 to July 30
The official price is 19,800 yen. Hobonichi lists the sales method as a lottery, with applications open from 11:00 a.m. on July 17 to 11:00 a.m. on July 30, 2026.
Readers should check the official page before applying because payment, shipping and eligibility details can vary by sales route.
Backlight, band and protector details are part of the appeal
The backlight shows a sunflower-field pixel image. The resin band includes MOTHER-series motifs, and the caseback carries a phrase fans will recognize.
The model also adds a gold protector. It gives the watch a different silhouette from a plain DW-5600 while also fitting the protective-tool theme of G-SHOCK.
There is also a TOBICHI Tokyo sample display
The official page says product samples can be viewed at TOBICHI Tokyo from July 14 to July 29, 2026.
