After nuclear armageddon, only cockroaches and Casio watches will survive.
I have three Casio Calulator watches and they are wicked. I was a child at school in the 90s and the coolest kids had the Casio remote control watch, I remember the teacher wheeling in the tv/video and my class mate (with his Casio remote watch) changing the channels rapidly and the whole class laughing, the teacher had to call the tech guy to take a look, best day in school ever. I tried to buy one on ebay but it went over £112 :(
donne that too ! also raised hyper high the volume of dozens of tv threw a shop window in the middle of the night ;)
I had one in school back in the mid 80s. I remember it beeping when I'd press the buttons so I made sure not to use it much in class. ;P
They had a TV REMOTE WATCH?! That's awesome!!! 😆
I bought it at 2011. And now after 10 years i still using it as my daily watch
I have a DBC-610 that I bought in the mid-80s as a student. Quite pricey at the time, but still going strong. Not bad for a 30+ year old electronic device.
I've had several Casio Calculators and still have one. These are absolute classic digital watches and still produced and popular.
I would love to have a Casio Databank again. Mine in school was black with a flat keypad that had both numbers and letters. You could store a series of phone numbers. Admittedly, I used it to help me on multiple choice tests when we went over the test beforehand.
I just bought one after seeing them a MILLION years ago & it’s bloody awesome!!!🤪😎
My brother gave me a stainless steel DBC-32 one as a gift quite a few years ago. Unfortunately, water got into it. So, I took it apart, removed the battery, and let it sit in a Ziploc bag with 2 of those desiccant packets that you can get with some electronics. It sat in storage for a long time like this. Out of sheer curiosity, I took it out tonight and popped in a new battery. It's not even the right kind of battery - it takes CR 2025 batteries, but I don't currently have any with me. Instead, I put in a CR 2032 battery since it has the same diameter but is only slightly thicker, and both are 3 volts. Lo and behold, it's working again! These things are indestructible... I'll actually get the right battery for it, but for now, I'm just going to wear it.
" if you had a calculator watch you were the coolest kid on the playground, I didn't have a calculator watch" LOVE YOUR VIDS
😄😄😄🤣🤣🤣
Brother you are the only one who inform us about currency exchange function nobody inform before nice informative video thanks a lot.
For sure. Now to figure out how to use it.
I had one of those when I was a teenager student and it seemed to me the holy grail. Now with cellular phones it lacks of sense except for sentimental reasons, good memories when one had his whole life ahead.... By the way, greetings from the antipodes, Spain.
Antipodes-Αντιποδες-Oposite legs
Sir you are the best who explained all the things i needed to know about this watch! Nobody even said that this watch has an auto back light before, thanks!
You forgot one of the best features of having a calculator watch! lol You can set the time with the keypad!
just wanna let you know that I had this watch since high school. about 18 years later, today, it is still running great.... you know what, I have never had its battery changed...
CA 53 is my favorite. Was worn in one of my favorite movies by a character
I'm a huge fan of the casio databanks. I had a few DBCs over the years. The feature I loved was the schedule. You could program a reminder message into the calendar and it would scroll across the screen when the alarm sounded. A marker would appear on the week ahead calendar at the top of the screen Its a shame this new line of databanks don't have this feature.
that sounds amazing. truly a lost feature
Classic stuff!! Ah the school yard memories of a select few who had these.
Just ordered the metal version cant wait
This watch is my definition for smartwatch
Casio's became an addiction for me very quickly. Haha!
Been missing this watch for maybe 5 or 6 years max and it still works wow
10 years battery life? That beats my 60 hour Hamilton Automatic hahaha
I have worn a DDC32 resin as my every day watch for over a decade. To me, it really is the most practical timepiece I have.
These early videos really showcase all the improvements you have made over the years. The low camera angle, the sound echo, the somewhat monotone voiceover, the random background... It's all gone. You really transformed the channel, to a point i would say it is perfect. Are there still things today you are not satisfied with?
Always improving mate!
I had one of those Casio calculator watches back in the 80's. I'm trying hard to remember what happened to it... 30 years is a long time!
I bought one of these recently. Thanks for all the tips!
Bought white, green, and black Casio watches on close-out at my local W-M for $11 each. May have to pick-up one of these Databank calculator watches. Well done video.
WOW Jody, your videos have improved 1000000 fold over the years congrats bro.
Ha! Thanks. Quite a different look back then. Definite evolution!
i had so many casio watches....casio dbc62 .casio dbc 611 .casio db34 then casio recording watch and the casio remote watch
hello chandresh. do you wants to sell it? i would like to buy your collection.
A lot of scientists still wear these watches. Ive heard its sort of a tradition
It’s really not that bad when you think about it. Some people want a calculator in their hands at all times instead of having to select an app on an iwatch all the time
Yeah, using the calculator watch will help preserve the battery on your smart devices, so it actually does make good sense to have this calculator watch. Then you have the data bank to use, again, not having to kill the battery on your smart devices. So it actually saved you money in the long term. 😉
I have a thing about us Modern watch lovers obsession with bracelets built like the forth road bridge.
I much prefer these thinner rolled like bracelets as I find the things people go on about negatively about them are what make them more comfortable. They rattle, that means there is more give so they don’t clamp the wrist like an oyster bracelet ( one reason why I sold my Rolex, never got fully comfortable with it, same with my constellation).
They are light, I find that an advantage for day long wear. They are thin, again, I find that more comfortable and easier when under a cuff.
The thing is, they may feel cheap compared to modern Uber bracelets but your watch was cheap to start with, is ten years old and the bracelet barely shows wear and sounds like the simple clasp still clicks shut nicely, that’s the other peave with modern bracelets, the over engineering of the clasp makes them bulky and I always find I have to keep opening them through the day to get relief and I wear mine loose!
I have some vintage watches from the seventies with these rattley bracelets and they shown very little wear and work perfectly!
Thanks for the great review. I had the basic plastic one back in the eighties!
I love the design of this watch and I bought it. But it made me kind of sick that it doesn't have a timer. One of the most practical functions and they eliminated the countdown timer.
Yeah it is so stupid that there is no countdown timer on the one watch that really should have it.
It's probably there, you just have to open it and remove some solder from one of the points.
A good watch collection is not complete without this watch
Watching these videos about watches ,all it does is make me want to buy watches and giving the fact I have a terrible addiction to buying watches,this doesn’t help.
TheWheelofLife100 The addiction is real lmao. Good luck brother
It has to huuuurt!! -😂
Casio is a gateway watch
Still useful if your job requires memorization of inter dept extensions, Dept radio call signs etc
This watch is great for storing passwords in a day and age where remembering passwords becomes increasingly a bigger problem
I have the no longer produced gold version of the DCB32. The strap was of very poor quality and broke so I stopped wearing it for quite a long time. but then I decided to try on a cheap gold plated bracelet from ebay and now I love it. It's gloriously obnoxious.
"Gloriously obnoxious'! Lol! Cheers!
Just ordered one of the resin ones the other day and it’ll be in tomorrow
Knowing what a CASIO Fan I am, my Brother presented me this very one. 💪😎😍
It's funny... In the old days, we were forced to remember all telephone numbers. Even though I had a Casio Databank, I knew all the numbers. But now I only remember a few numbers. Not because I'm old, but because of smartphones doing all the dialing.
I just bought my 1st. I am quite happy with it. Thank you for your cool video.
When I was 12 I had the telememo 50. The one with e forward and backward buttons.
Even though I dont own or planning to get one (not my cup of tea) but I hope Casio continue to manufacture these cool watches for ever.
Great review as always. For me, the DBC611 looks the most like the watch I had as a kid. I don't know the exact model I had because there are so many slight variations but the DBC610 is an even closer match. This one looks like a 2000's version of it. 😁
I know that this is an old video but a lack of “HALLOOOO” is a bit sad!
Ordered just nowthe silver version cheers for the video
Best watch ever..
Another top review and comments. Thank you from Perth, keep safe healthy and happy
Brilliant presentation well done and most informative.
My wife bought me this watch nine years ago when we got married and it's my favorite watch for that reason. The only drawback is after 20 years of only really wearing diving watches, when I do wear it, I have a bad habit of getting in the shower and catching myself with it on at the last second.
Hi but this watch is not waterproof?
@@juanchistrd No it is not!!!
I personally I would have loved a combination of features for such a thing with altimeter, thermometer IR+ambient with huminity and a scientific calculator.
All this being able to use measured values by the sensors, use time values as well with time calulations and a few hexadecimal and boolean calculations ...
The controls wouldnt have been practical at all then
"If you're having so much fun with the basic mathematics that you lose track of the time" xDD
😄😄😄🤣🤣🤣
My was on sale for 30 against the real price at 63. My favorite is Invicta. Plus Kenneth Cole Michael Kors and Versace and Bulova
I own 4 casios; I'm not into hi-tech but those freaks've got such a humongous personality I just can't but loving them, even if I'm quite into mechanical watches. Guys after all Pope Francis himself wears a basic Casio. This stuff is gold if you're a true watch addict
Thank you for this review. I realized for the size it has not enough features
My favorite is Invicta watches. But I also have Bulova. And Versace
Vintage Jodi! I didn’t look at the release date before clicking on this one. Love the look!
The watch I had in college looked like this but it had blister type buttons instead of individual buttons.
Ah Jodie, this made me nostalgic. Also nice to see your earlier work and see the difference to today.
Missed the Heeelllloooooooo! at the start of the vid 👍🙂
I love the mesh strap on the silver one! Thanks for the review. I love this channel!
Its very beautiful watch
My wife bought me one the ca 53w one of thee greatest gifts I've ever received....
I love my DBC32, but the bands suck and snap easily. I took the bands from a different casio and put them on the DBC 👍
Pound for pound this is a awesome review. well done !
Metal one just ordered
you have some beatiful watches there, my friend.
The best part of these Casio data banks are, they literally are hack proof comparing to all current devices we carry round the clock. Storing passwords should be safe.
If casio brings back the Databank 150 I will buy a truckload of them
Great review. I ordered one after seeing your video. Do you know the exact launch year of this model ?
The silver one on the mesh is really funky. Love it! Nice review.
The flash
When I was a kid it was either this or a timex indeglo watch. Only issue was Sears didn't carry allot of Casios but they did carry timex so it was Timex Indeglo Ironmans we where all drooling over as kids if you liked watches. Funny thing was I didn't even know what an Auto watch was until the late 2000s Everyone owned either Quartz or manual wind watches where I came from.
its still look classic and futuristic ... wish there were upgraded version add some new tech ... i don't know
The top right seems a waste of screen space, The old ones back in the day had storage for dates and a timeline of the week where you would see if there was a birthday/anniversary/important date coming up. That was very useful and i kind of miss that on the new ones.
Used mine for DEMO calk in the ARMY
Nice Mate, I have a Gmix and Edifice. But my Databank DBC 32 is my favorite :)
The original Gmix was a DJ watch with a BPM counter but of course if you had a Databank you could use the stopwatch and calculator to do the same thing as well as perform a whole bunch of other musical calculations.
Thats my cup a tea👍🏽🌴1:34 but I am think about the black rubber band one
We all know why we want to buy this watch......It's like a time machine.The same feeling we have when we see a retro style movie.Reminds us the 80's.........
I broke my Apple Watch, so I thought about the original Casio calculator watch, but I need the one with backlight aka illuminator, so this one it is.
This black version with the red highlights was the knightrider kit car of the watch world
I *did* have a calculator watch in school back in the mid 1980s, but I was *far* from "cool," and I was not a "nerd" either. 😄 I just liked having access to information on my wrist because when I watched *Inspector Gadget* back then, his daughter would take out her book and do calculation tasks on it, which made me wish that *I* had something like that at *my* disposal. Just like I wanted a Swiss Army Knife back then when I saw MacGyver using one. 😀 Anyway, my watch kept beeping when I would press a button, so I could not cheat with it in math class. 😬😩... 🤣😀
I just ordered the black DBC model that you reviewed in this video, and it should be here within a weeks time. Together with a cheap ABC (Altimeter Barometer Compass + Pedometer and other features) watch: the Skmei 1358, for just $33 on Amazon (in the U.S.). I will likely be getting a Casio ProTrek PRG330 in the future though. Just testing the cheap one first. 😉
Maybe you can do a review on the Skmei 1358? Or Casio PRG330? 😀
I have all the Calculator watches you listed except the CA56. I recently got the DBC32, and let me tell you: people are right about those buttons. They are pretty tough to push. Already got a very small nail mark on the + button and my nails are short, too. The watch is awesome, though. Wanted a casual, every day version I can wear outside of work. I wear the DBC611 at work for the steel bracelet which goes well with my dress code.
For me than usual alarm clock is much more better Calculator Alarm Clock. You can add and sub struct time in edit mode.
Is it good for small wrists? I have a casio f91W and prefer small sizes for a small wrist.
Hello! Do you know how can I arrange the watch so as to listen to a bip sound every hour exactly
This was a requirement back in the 80s i remember a transformer type watch was real popular for a while too
👍 Just ordered one. I like the idea of combining calculator and databank. 22mm lugs will be perfect because I just put my Duro on a metal bracelet so I have a box of 22mm natos collecting dust at the moment. Thanks for all the great informative videos.
I had one as a child, now i want it again 😂
I had 3 of these back in the late 80s.
Great review! This particular watch is better than the one I had during my childhood in the 80s. But is it Water resistant? I think I'll get one! Thank you!
Good point re WR, or lack thereof! Casio website says nothing.
just bought one (Resin)
It’s looks like Numbercruncher watch in MW2019
I bought the data bank, the resin one, for the same reasons as you, as a child I dreamt of having one but didn't dare to ask it from my parents. :) I was disappointed because the 8 number isn't very responsive and sometimes 5 too. I felt that I was robbed in a way, I paid around 50 euros and I expected it to be nothing less than perfect.
i swim with it 4 years now with no problem
But the Watch don't Say water resisten. I AM glad this Watch can do that. I want to buy. It's looks retros.
Luis Flores it’s is resistant even if it doesn’t say it is. I think it is capable of up to 1 meter depth
@@lriper4702 i AM glad yo hear that, the fact it dont Say water resisten stops to me for buy this Watch. This renember my chidhood. I love Casio watches.
Same here!!!!!! No gray hairs yet lol debating on which one to get..
Awesome review! Thank you!
I bought the databank on the strength of this,for a laugh.
Great little watch!
Not being a pessimist but I wish to complete the package a simple Timer would have been great
Great review.
Anyone can help with 'how to turn off the alarm sound' and the 'key sound'?
Thanks.
You go to the alarm mode, scroll to 'sig' through alarms and then try pressing the right lower big button .
why does your baclight colored green? mine's orange?
it's the DBC, not DCB at 01:37 :-) thanks for video
