Calling all Lovers of the ‘Simple’ Casio!

Casio really runs the gamut when it comes to the trim levels of their watches!

Image

From the humble basic module, to the balls-out multi sensor wrist presence that promises to stun all invaders within range by a blinding plasma beam!

Image

But alas…though I own a couple of the death beam type…I find my greatest pleasures floating to-and-fro in the Casio Universe when I wear the basic kind — the cornflake version. Out of that bunch, I lean on my A700W. It gives me that oh-so-simple module…but with an advanced backlight to help guide me through the corridors of Casio’s never-ending kingdom.

What is your favorite ‘basic’ Casio? Do you like it more than than the high-falutin ones?

Here is one of mine; the Twin Sensor SGW-100.

It has a futuristic industrial aesthetic I really appreciate. My favorite basic Casio is actually a G Shock, the G5600U, which is the DW5600 updated with Tough Solar.

As always, you demonstrate a penchant for the best examples of digital in any person’s collection.

I like the gold version of yours 😂

It's just such a comfortable wearing, super slim watch.

Dang!…so do I. And it comes with a mesh band? I’m envious!

It's comfortable. Super tacky in gold but that's why I love it.

Casios + mesh are the best.

Here is one that was a basic Casio when it came out. Casio Cosmo Phase 50W.

I remember that model. Illuminating Watches does a good show of it. Leave it up to Casio for that one!

Just got the basic one bought it for nostalgic reasons but it’s a great watch anyway, just wish they would make a bigger window version. It’s getting hard to read without specs.🙁

Amazon has this A178WA with a jumbo display for about $22.00 USD. Great basic example with their Illuminator technology.
