Not to my knowledge. Maybe it depends on country? Mine came with the chimes and alarms turned off, and I purchased this one from an authorised Casio dealer. It seems to me to be kind of annoying to have a load of chimes going off all the time in the warehouses they ship from/stores, not to mention the unneccesary battery drain.
While I agree that I like having a watch on me to check the time, whst kind of job doesn't allow you to wear a smart watch or carry a phone? I wouldn't be able to do half my job without a phone. Not judging anything, I am merely curious.
