View the Casio G-Shock GW-5600 photo gallery. The GW-5600 is a remake of the very first Casio G-Shock: the 1983 DW-5000C. I fell in love with the GW-5600 series the first time I saw it both for its boxy, retro styling, and for its plain but essential feature set. In...
Not to be outdone by the new Seiko Brightz worldwide atomic watch, Casio has recently released their own triple-region atomic watch. What makes the new Casio Waveceptor special is that it will calibrate with atomic time signals anywhere in the world, or at least anywhere where there is an atomic...
I've been waiting for this watch. I'm a big fan of the Casio Pro Trek line, especially since they went solar, and even more so now that they've gone atomic. That's right: an atomic solar Casio Pro Trek. That makes for quite a list of features: Atomic timekeeping. That means...
Casio accomplishes another first with the Oceanus. There's nothing new about combining atomic time calibration with solar power, but I don't think I've ever seen a solar-powered atomic chronograph. The Oceanus is a very functional and sophisticated watch in a rugged but attractive package. Features include: Solar powered. Atomic time...
View the Casio G-Shock GW-400J photo gallery. When I first saw the new Casio GW-400J vibrating watch, I knew I was going to have to get my hands on one. You see, I'm very in to vibrating watches. Not because I'm some kind horological pervert, but because they make so...
Casio's Edifice line is designed to be sporty, stylish, and sophisticated. They are for people who want something inexpensive (sub $100) and reasonably well made, but who can't quite bring themselves to strap a big, black, plastic G-Shock to their wrists. The new Edifice EF-505s are your standard affordable, consumer...
I'm only doing a mini review of the Casio G-Shock GW-1310 because it is almost identical to the G-Shock GW-1100 that I reviewed late last year with just a few subtle differences. Before reading what's different between the two watches, you should probably check out that review first, if you...
Casio continues its foray into the world of women's fashion. Late last year, I wrote about Casio's introduction of the square Baby-G series, and now they are marketing to fashion-conscious women once again with the new Futurist. I have to admit, when I first saw a watch by Casio called...
Of course, the Casio Overland only appears to be available in Japan (aren't all the coolest Japanese watches?), but if you have some strings over there, they might be worth pulling to get your hands on one of these. In my opinion, the Casio Overland is the nicest looking solar...
Casio has introduced a pretty nice new Oceanus with both an alarm and a chronograph. Features include: Water resistant to 100 meters (330 feet). 3-dial chronograph (resolution of 1/20 of a second). Daily alarm with snooze function. Date display. Stainless steel case. Mineral glass crystal. Black or while dial. Quartz...
A couple of weeks ago, the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI issued a warning to the Transportation Security Administration stating that al-Qaida may attempt to use Casio watches with built-in altimeters to sabotage US airliners. The idea is that since Casios are readily available and very affordable, budget-conscious...
