Casio Vintage - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

The Casio A168WA-1YES was one of my first watches, and it continues to be one of the most worn in my collection. Despite the years and the many watches I have acquired since then, this Casio remains a timeless model that still fascinates me today. Electroluminescence: My Little Ritual When I got it, I was completely captivated by electroluminescence. I spent hours playing with it, especially at night, under my duvet, in the soft and reassuring green light. Each time I pressed the button, it was like lighting a small lantern in the dark. It had become a real daily ritual, and even after all this time, I still love pressing this button and seeing this light come on. The Stopwatch: My Personal Challenge Another function that has always amused me is the stopwatch. I would spend hours trying to start and stop it as quickly as possible, trying to improve my reflexes. It had become a personal challenge, almost addictive, and I really enjoyed playing this game. A Timeless Design Despite its affordable price and simple appearance, the design of the Casio A168WA-1YES is still as effective as ever. Its silver case and stainless steel bracelet retain a retro elegance that makes it timeless. It adapts to all occasions, from casual outings to more dressy moments, which is why I still wear it so often. Its look does not age, and it always finds its place in my rotation. Conclusion This watch, simple in appearance, has marked my journey as a watch enthusiast. It managed to combine fun, nostalgia and functionality, all while maintaining a timeless design. Even today, it remains a watch that I wear with pleasure, proof that sometimes, the simplest things can have a lasting impact.

Watch that I have had since 1998, it is a quartz chronograph with 3 analog sub-counters for seconds, minutes and 24-hour display, and a small multi-function digital screen at 3 o'clock. The chrome-plated brass case is 40mm in diameter and 11.5mm thick. The blue dial is very beautiful, well worked with applied numeral indexes, there is a very pretty backlight that is activated with the pusher at 2 o'clock. We find all the usual functions of a digital Casio in addition to the analog display, we can choose to display on the digital screen the date, the time that can be set independently of the hands but with synchronization of the second, the hundredth of a second of the chrono... There are 3 pushers at 10 o'clock, 8 o'clock, and 2 o'clock and a crown at 4 o'clock. A rotating compass bezel in both directions. A 5-link folded steel bracelet. I have worn this watch a lot, I find it very beautiful, practical and super solid, the battery life is between 1 and 2 years. Waterproof to 100m.

Casio AE1200WH, quartz, vintage, battery guaranteed for ten years of operation and incidentally, Daniel Craig's Casio in Casino Royale!!! It has the metal bracelet...to each his own!!! I bought it for the fun of vintage and the most economical nod to the franchise. I paid for it new on sale, not even 20 euros. It is made of hard plastic. But when I look at it, I go back to driving my...Spanish car!
