CASIO VINTAGE COLLECTION CA-500 Metallic calculator watch
Norderstedt – July 18, 2023
With the new CA-500, CASIO VINTAGE is catapulting the classic pocket calculator into a shiny metallic look.
The pocket calculator model of the CA series has been one of the absolute highlights in CASIO's watch portfolio since the 1980s. The Japanese brand was already the world market leader in the manufacture of pocket calculators back then, and what could be more obvious than developing a pocket calculator watch? At the end of the 1970s, this innovation revolutionized the watch market. This watch, which looked like a calculator and also had useful functions, shaped the fashion trend of the 80s and 90s and is still a real evergreen on the wrist today.
The new CA-500 with its angular, elongated display is 8.2 mm flat and can be worn comfortably on the wrist. The resin case and bracelet were coated in three colors gold, silver and gunmetal and guarantee a shiny appearance.
CASIO has also retained the original gadget function of the pocket calculator watch with the CA-500: the pocket calculator watch can carry out the four basic types of arithmetic as well as 8-digit calculations. The unique face combines a full keypad with an LCD and adds subtle accent colors on operator icons to complete the sleek gadget look.
The CA-500 in a trendy metallic look will be available from September at https://www.casio.com and from selected retailers.
Technical features include:
- 8-digit calculator
- second time zone
- Stop function -1/10 sec -1 hr
- Daily alarm
- Automatic calendar with date, month and day of the week
