The GM-B2100LL watch is a testament to the fusion of magic and technology in the world of League of Legends, known as Hextech. Its bezel and certain parts of the band are graced with an aged finish, lending the watch a weathered, vintage appearance reminiscent of ancient relics.
Blue accents on the LCD and minute hand pay homage to Hextech’s signature color, adding an air of authenticity to the timepiece. The League of Legends logo is thoughtfully incorporated into various elements, including the case back and band, making it a collector’s item for fans.
GA-110LL: Featuring the Charismatic Jinx
The GA-110LL watch puts the spotlight on one of League of Legends’ most charismatic characters, Jinx. With a vibrant color scheme on the bezel and band, the watch exudes Jinx’s playful yet explosive personality.
The indicator hand on the inset dial at the 9 o’clock position is a subtle nod to Jinx’s signature weapon, her rocket. The League of Legends logo proudly graces various parts of the watch, including the case back and band. This timepiece encapsulates the spirit of Jinx, making it a coveted item for fans of both the character and the game.
