It's about time Casio released some new digital watches with solid stainless steel cases. Check out this silver version with a positive digital display. It's got a stainless steel bracelet and a solid stainless steel case with both polished and brushed edges.
Check it out on Ebay:
ebay.us/ps5Er6
Both the positive and negative display watches come with a mother-of-pearl type styling on the dial, a strong back light, and two styles of bracelets: a stainless steel link version with a quick release clasp and a metal mesh version. Are these the newest digital watches that you're looking for? Come and find out!

I hope the Casio World Time gets this treatment
Should've done that to the A500W.
Does anyone know any steel bracelet upgrades, or if this bracelet will fit the a500w (Casio world time)?
This is the first proper video showing this watch, thanks man, it looks really good
Thank you!
This should come standard with the new Cybertruck
with a negative display!
It looks beautiful 🤩
Casio should bring back 12 melody alarm stainless steel watch.I used it for almost 14 years. A unique piece.
Casio, please keep it simple! Non mother of pearl grey or black dial, positive display, stainless link bracelet and stainless / gold options.
Sometimes when you want something so bad for so long, when it's finally available, you are just gonna be like 'meh...'. Jokes aside, I like the direction they are heading now, we need more premium material in life.
dream come true
Hahaha i was thinking the same
I am so freaking excited about this. I've been using classic Casio watches for years but so frustrated with how the paint wears off and the face scratches. This is even nicer looking than the originals and made of high quality materials. Though I wish they had the superior button layout of the B640WD-1A.
Dear Casio ......bring back more "Marlin"-style modules in stainless steel cases. I would love to see those old school watches once again. Genuine Casio fans like myself would gladly pay a much higher price tag..
if only Casio would give us stainless steel cases for the F91W, the AE-1200WHD or the A-158WA & A-168WA...... noooope... still giving us chromed resin... And that pearl background.. WTF..
F-91 would be way to expensive in steel case
@@entertainme7523 why
@@entertainme7523
They would be making thousands of cases so the price would not cost that much extra, if they charged an extra £10 per watch Casio would still be making a massive profit, and it would give their customers a choice on the type of case they wanted.
A158 w is f91 in steel
Back in the days Casio’s premium watches used to have countdown timer. A feature I use several times a day, while I never ever use the pointless stopwatch!
Agreed! Wish this one had a timer.
It is a nice cool watch I am a casio watch fan
Christmas, and Its like the 1980's & I'm 10yrs old again!!!
Cameron Alexander a lot of people who are NOT successful in their lives concentrate on their past and not on their future I have noticed this in my 45 years of living. Me personally when I was 10 years old I was raised by my mother as my father died on the line of duty as a cop and being this in USSR there were no moneys paid to our family so yes we lived very poorly till 1990 and then we came to Canada and thats when i graduated high school and went to collage where i got my diplomas in HVAC field and now still 45 but no where near as before i work only 50% of the year and the rest is when i travel the world on our Yacht with my our kids.
Nostalgia is a proper word to your comment
@@WorldTravelerCA What the fuck does that have to do with anything?

@Alpha Centauri or "I need to brag about my success to strangers online since i dont have friends in real life"
Crazy to think that digital watches were the luxury options for many not too long ago.
Nice video. About time Casio figured out that there actually is a marked for reasonable priced full metal digital watches. Espessially those who loved them in the 80's, and can affort watches that cost more than $30.
But it actually is almost too late, expectations have risen. So I don't fancy this one. Too simple functionality, boring/fashion style, only 3 years battery, no micro adjustments. I also wish Seiko had picked up this trend/demand some years ago.
Too simple.....? It's a watch homie most people don't need that much seems like a good watch for a semi professional job but the 3 year battery is pretty lame especially with casio standards of battery life
For me, the most beautiful Casio watch are A168 WEM 7 EF and A700 WM
I’m a Casio nut , too many to count. I ordered this watch tonight and I can’t wait for it to arrive !! I have some pretty awesome G Shocks among others and this one will sit right up top along side those. Yes , I did bounce the price back and forth but in the end I said to Hell with it, I’ve paid more for vintage watches that I rarely wear so why not this one? Thanks again Casio
Oh good call! I hope you like it.
Wow! Now I dream Casio releasing stainless steel version of "Casio Royale" AE-1200WHD :-)
I wish!
@@WatchingCasio I want this too!
A500 with solid stainless steel case and band, solid back-lit. That would be perfek
And 5 times the price
Another great review! Would be great if they offered this with the darker mother of pearl with the positive display (not a fan of neg displays!). Might actually get this cuz I love the simplicity and that cool SS case/bracelet 👌
While I like the stainless steel (SS) case on this watch, when saw this watch I was hoping for basically an A168 in a SS case. For me, the A168 is the perfect watch...except for the case. Then again, I liked the watch so much that I purchased a spare in case the case on my watch gets seriously damaged.
is the A168 not full stainless steel then? I was planning on getting one (a168) soon
@@315HUGHES Per other videos I've seen on TH-cam, the metallic-looking parts on the front are actually plastic with a metal-like coating.
I really like this one! Classy and quite elegant for a Casio digital watch. Normally I’m not keen on mother of Pearl or MOP effect dials. But I like it here as the effect is rarely used with a digital watch. Also the whole design is quite simple and unfussy. Like no use of multiple colors on the dial for lines and words. If I come across one of these in the shops, I think I’m getting one. I don’t buy online anymore as the postal service in my area is very bad!
I've had a love affair with digital watches since my grandfather bought me a Texas Instrument watch about 1979....from Kroger. LOL. It was huge and my mom hated it...I have loved Timex Iron man (one I wore about 13 years) and lots of Casios. THIS is a beautiful watch I want to add to my little collection. Great video!!
Thank you!
Texas Instruments made watches??!! I didn't know that. I didn't know I wanted that.
Beautiful piece! The mother of pearl gives a luxuriant look, which I like 👍
It should be like 30 usd cheaper. We get steel in so many things I can't see why it costs 110. It can't be that hard to make
Totally agree.
Casio and by extension most Japanese brands follows a weird principle where the JACK up the prices when they sell it outside of Japan or export it.
Stainless steel case and beautiful appearance..
Wow! I didn't know about this new model! Thanks casio man!
That pearl background. What were they thinking?
I think it’s gorgeous!
I like it. Reminds me of a guitar's pickguard
Its pretty subtle in person and looks pretty good.
I love your presentation, you matched your shirt to that mother of pearl dial perfectly. Beautiful!
I might look out for this on the secondary market if I can grab a bargain. At the moment I am all spent out 😭.
Finally! A full stainless! In my opinion, the polished midlinks even give a slight luxury...Great review!
Thanks! It is a nice watch.
There's other Casio Watches with stainless steel cases. This is not the first.
A very nice looking watch, it's nice to see Casio moving in this direction.
What you've got is 4 tiny screws that hold the case back on, its not called a screw down case back.
The negative display model looks interesting. Thanks!
Ok, so Casio went ahead and finally did an all metal case on this A1000D, making this retro style "158wa looking" watch tough but then they put that very boring white face, and never improved the water resistance value....I absolutely love Casio watches, but this model was a bit counter productive, as far as I'm concerned 😕
What's your opinion on my preference, should it have had at least 50m water resistance, on the all metal case, making it more versatile for everyday activities and more classic aesthetics on the face like the 158wa?
Would be nice, but would maybe not be as slim? At least the backlight seems improved.
mother of pearl is a very boring white face? or are you talking about the screen.
I don’t mind the white face it gives the watch a more classy look to it. Less in your face and if they know they know
I accidentally bumped into your channel. Mate, your content is so interesting. Like so much this vid and the Lineage watch vid. Hope you’d do a Casio game (vintage) watch video in near future. All the best from 🇦🇺
Thanks a lot! I've been trying to get my hands on a game watch. We'll see. Thanks for watching.
Beautiful watch, nostalgia, reminds me of Roger Moore's (007s)Seiko watches.
I wish the bracelet was solid-link and not rolled. But that would make it way more expensive. Could you imagine, though?
yes, nice imagination.
That's the only reason I won't be getting this. Does anyone make replacement bracelets?
@@NidalMorra It should look very nice on nato strap.
Good idea. Casio watches could last for decades, but when they have a case made of plastic (or "resin" as they say) the lugs will break after a couple of years, you can't wear it any more and its ends up as a pocket watch or back-of-the-drawer watch.
I was hoping that when these SS versions come, they will look better :/ ....Their resin options tick the box really well in terms of vintage design. Still waiting I guess
Im not a watch collector but this looks pretty cool, id definitely buy it for $100!
Well it's about time Casio started making retro digitals with Steel cases :)
Well I’m a lady and so I love that pearl face actually I want this
Reminds me of a Santos
$100 is a bit steep. I do like the look of the watch and I love that Casio are always coming out with new ideas and designs but I will have to wait for this one to drop in price a bit.
Needs a better module and a screw-back.
I'm nearly 70.
And, believe it or not, I constantly meet young people, under 30, that CAN NOT TELL TIME WITH AN ANALOG CLOCK OR WATCH!!!!!!
If the time isn't being displayed in a "Digital Format", these kids are totally helpless!
Oh, how I fear for the future of this Great Country, left in the hands of CITIZENS like this! 😕
Analog clocks are archaic and unnecessary. I think it's still worth knowing for now because occasionally someone will expect you do read an analog clock, but it shouldn't be necessary. They need to go away. In fact, the myth that nice watches need to be analog has been a curse that has held back watch advancement for some time.
I would love this watch but with a OLED screen
Ha, wouldn't we all.
irisfailsafe and Apple Pay and audible
You would lose the whole point of these retro watches with an OLED display. Some things are best left as intended.
@@goldsaint7 opinions, opinions...it's everything to do with being retro. But again, that's my opinion.
They should make 14k 18k Full gold casio watches they would sell them fast I would buy more than one !
Looks sweet. I bought a 158 on a whim and after a 1.5 years in the trades it’s looking a little haggered. Solid stainless would age a lot better.
They should have a gold one
@Jorn Navarre it would sell in europe . if they dont make it i wil look in to get a stainless one goldplated if thats posible
If they made a direct copy of the A168WEM-1EF in solid 14k yellow with solar charging I'd buy it immediately.
How's the backlight? That would have been an important info.
We need more products like these for those of us that want an LCD watch but of higher quality than the usual disposable offerings. If they could also increase the accuracy of the movements to +/- 10 secs per month that would be even better.
I watch all videos of casio watches thanks
The Casio mother of pearl😍
They should do the same watch with an all brushed bracelet and instead of pearl they could put carbon fibre. It would sell like hot cakes
I wish they'd do solid bracelet links rather than the cheap folded steel. I think there would be a good chance of the royale being put into production as it would sell out continuosly,much like Q Timex are at the moment.
i don't get why they just don't make a stainless steel and glass version of the A158 for example. I have an 80s casio that is stainless steel and it's the best watch i own honestly.
Is that really an issue?
I want both the A700 and the A1000
Battery lasts 3 years?! Surely not. My cheap old fg91w took 8 years before its first battery change.
better than your rolex, which needs an oil change every 2 months.
Retro new wave. Wake up.
@lilmayo thanks, good to know about the 'servicing scam'. mechanical watches have all sorts of maintenance like winding them up, updating the minutes, seconds regularly, and also the 'servicing' part.
i'm quartz and it's not due to my financial situation. quartz is a superior technology and the Japanese mastered the tourbillion mechanism in the 80s so mechanical tech is overrated.
heeheemanofHK spring drive 🙊
VTKC it’s all based on how you use it. They say 3 years, minimum. This is simply because if they said 8 to 10 years but it lasted less because the people using it constantly use the light and other functions, they’d get stupid complaints they don’t want.
Attention Casio! It's simple: offer a steel case premium option for the A158, A169 and A700 models. Please.
What killed this watch is the (lack of) water resistance. What the heck were they thinking? A steel Casio digital that is only splash proof?
Also, the entire line seems geared towards women even though I think the typical buyer who might be interested in a steel Casio digi watch are men.
Nah, Casio dropped the ball on this one.
I wish they made the b650 in stainless steel it would be the last whatch I'd buy.
I'm almost with you, except that the B640 has a better button layout. My recollection is that the B650 gets switched into 24 hour mode easily and accidentally. So annoying!
@@bendirval3612 that's true it happens once in a while. But not a deal breaker at all. Size, the square shape and screen size and legibility in the 650 are perfect for me. If anything I'd prefer it came with an oysterish bracelet like in this video.
Very Nice Watch!!! You're Right, It Does Indeed Look Decent On You!!! 👌
nice! Is there timer/countdown function? thanks!
No timer, just stopwatch.
Does anybody know what that digital watch in the background with the radar-like complication is? It's the 2nd one on the left, and I really like the look of it.
That would be the AE-22W. Check out my review on the channel!
@@WatchingCasio Yes, that's it! Thank you very much, it really is a beautiful watch. And thanks for the recommendation, I definitely will ;)
Just found your channel and sub’d thanks for providing this content
Thank you!
Can we ever get a real gold version? That's my only question
That would be nice.
They should make a 14k and 18k full gold casio watches for a good price they would sell like hot cakes super fast they are already dominating the market now with the gold ones they definitely beat Rolex !!!
😍😍😍 casio know what i want,
I think I'm going to need one. Great review, and you're right, it is handsome!
Great Chanel by the way I love casio watches specially calculator watches
Thanks man! Glad you stopped by.
its way of telling is very nice
beautiful watch
This Joint Is Fire
Now the only thing left is an iced out version
Its January 3rd, 1986, 09:55am. A dreary, misty morning is barely visible through fluorescent light reflecting off the windows in Mrs. Johanson's 4th grade literature class. In five minutes there will be an outburst of beeping, resulting in several students furiously struggling with their wrists.
Cool. I've actually been on the lookout for something like this. I hope that they come up with more color options, though. I'm not a huge fan of the mother of pearl thing.
Same. Although it's kinda growing on me believe it or not.
Casio has so many digital watches that are made of plastic that would really be cool if they were made of stainless steel. I have both an AE1200WHD that's just painted silver with a hollow stainless steel bracelet. As you can imagine the paint has worn off along the edges and it's pretty easy to scuff. I like the way it looks but it feels really cheap. It looks so worn out after 2.5 years that I seldom wear it. Would be cool if it had a stainless steel case and mineral glass instead of the acrylic crystal.
I also have an A500WA. Really looks nice but again it's just painted, but chrome instead of silver. I try to preserve it though. I wish it's bigger too, because it's only something like 37mm or less. Would be cool if it were 40mm or a bit larger and made of stainless steel and mineral glass.
Great watches by Casio
Sold
Really nice watch!
Looks beautiful
Solid B5000 Casio solid
In your video “CA-53WF - Can you tell the time on Casio’s new version of the calculator watch?” there’s a watch you show at the beginning of the video that’s identical to the watch in this video, but it seems to have a negative display on the other video. I would love this watch with the mother of Pearl dial with a negative display sort of like the one shown in the video I mentioned above. If you know what watch I’m referring to, please drop the ref number. Fell in love with it on the other video, but haven’t been able to find it anywhere online. Love your videos in general! Subbed
i stopped wearing wrist watches since i had my 1st celphone.....but i might buy a retro casio because they look cool
I'm so sad that I can't get this watch in my country.
It's overpriced for what you get. It's basically a $8 f91-w with a steel case and better lighting. The price is unjustified. For $100 I would want a screw down case back, and better water resistancy. Honestly, there are great mechanical watches for less than half the price and nobody can tell me they cost less to produce. So either the price should be lowered or there should be more features.
That's my point as well. I don't want to pay $100 for a fancy A158W.
For this price you can get 2 vostoks or nice Seiko 5 , Invicta..etc many better options out there or even get a gshock square
Seiko 5 would be the way to go in my book. So many design choices.
Casio is one motherf*cker to add that mother of pearl.
Great review
Are you sure that the backlight is electro-luminescent? I clearly see a point white LED at the left edge, like in a 593.
There's definitely an LED there but the entire panel lights up as though it were electroluminescent. It's also listed that way in the specs.
Out of curiosity, how feasible do you think it might be to put a leather or NATO strap on one of these? I could see that having a good look to it.
(Also, I don’t understand how your channel doesn’t already have thousands of followers-because your videos are great!)
You could totally put a leather strap on this. It would look great, in my opinion.
Thanks for watching! Glad you like the videos. (and sorry, thought I responded to this a while ago!)
@@WatchingCasio nato is not leather dude
@@endofdayzfitnessu.k2126 she asked for a leather one too dude…
Looks nice! But is it for men with that mother of pearl dial?
Unisex. I own it and wear it lot. Looks good in person.
They need to make these designs in larger sizes.
40+ wide and 45+ lug to lug.
"IF" it's worth picking up? It's an instant pickup no questions asked lmao
Unfortunately, it is very expensive (th eequivalent of 130USD in my country). And the folded link bracelet is really disappointing.
Excellent Dadwatch
I wish these were available in a bigger size. My wrist is just too big
Wow lo necesito , me encantan los casio , en especial los g shock 5600
the backlight seems to be LED rather than EL though.
I want to buy this one, and I really love this brand 😎
interesting, thanks for the video
Those 5 are too girly, better wait for gents version steel cases
Hope we won't wait too long!
You must be a bent shot lol.....
