- If you'd like to watch my In Depth Review of another Casio Calculator Watch (the CA-53 which is visible in this video), then follow this link • Casio CA-53 Calculator... .
This video features the DBC-32 Calculator/Databank watch from Casio. Compared to the lower-priced CA-53 this is loaded with extra features. The only major, missing feature on this DBC-32 is water resistance. Otherwise, it improves upon the CA-53 by offering a backlight which has a short-or-longer duration option and a temporary, automatic backlight option. The Databank allows the user to store 25 records with an alphanumeric title (up to 8 characters) and 15 digits of numbers in each record. The Databank titles can be entered in one of 13 different languages. The day-of-the-week on the main, timekeeping display can also be shown in one of those 13 languages.
The DBC-32 also features five very versatile alarms. One alarm can be set as a "Snooze" alarm. All alarms can be programmed for a specific month, a specific day of each month, just one day of the year or every single day. Meanwhile, like the CA-53, this watch has an 8-digit calculator. The calculator mode on this one includes a simple Currency Conversion function.
This watch has a 24-hour stopwatch. It has a Dual Time mode. It can display the time in 12-hour or 24-hour configurations. And it's very easy to activate or deactivate Daylight Saving Time in the main, timekeeping mode and/or the Dual Time mode.
Currently, there's another version of this watch which has a silver-tone case and a metal bracelet for just a few dollars more than this model. Shop carefully and you'll find the resin version for somewhere between $20 and $30 or the silver-tone version for somewhere between $30 and $40 (prices based on early 2023 shopping).
This watch uses module 2888 and the complete instructions are available to download from Casio's website. This uses a CR2025 battery which should last about 10 years with normal use. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี

I've had the silver one for fifteen years and it's still on the original battery!
How is the water resistance?
Thanks s lot for this detailed and easy to understand tutorial ! I love this watch, it just arrived from Amazon today on Saturday, March 23rd 2024. It's a beautiful watch, plenty of functions. I truly appreciate anything that takes me back to the 1980's.
I'm gen z, I wasn't even alive in the 90's, much less the 80's, but I just picked up one of these watches and am loving it.
I discovered your channel not long ago, and man...I can't wait for every new video that you upload. Thanks to you I have rediscovered my passion for watches, and in particular for solar/radiocontrolled ones, and I have started my own little collection. Thank you very much for your work Greg, it's a pleasure to spend some time watching your content. Greetings from Italy
I knew I could trust Greg to teach me how to use this one! Thanks again for another tutorial!
Nice to see this video - I ordered a steel bracelet DBC32 about a week ago and received it last night. I quite like the vintage look and the screen is large and main screen display has a lot of good information at a glance. Funny thing about the water resistance - the little slide in paper that came in the plastic display holder the watch shipped with says "databank" and "water resistant". I don't intend to test out the water resistance just in case but I would expect it to be OK with light splashes. Appreciate your videos Greg!
Always a pleasure to watch, Greg. Thank you.
I'm 2001 born.... But still when I see these watches, I feel so classy and elegant.
I have collection of all Casio Vintage Series watches.... Luckily I'm buying them as Casio has relaunched some of its iconic models.... Masterpieces.
Today's junk technology is too boring.
Life would be beautiful and meaningful if we live with basics, slow paced.
Wow this classic was my 3rd Casio watch! Great to see it again
Thank you for the very useful tutorial. Just ordered the one steel bracelet version and this should make setting it up a lot easier.
I wish I knew about the unique alarm features on the databank series before . Just ordered one after watching your video . Thanks man.
Hey, what a coincidence! I just got one a few weeks ago! Thank you for the video!
Thanks, Greg. This is very useful. Paid about $47 at the big watch shop here in Moscow, though I did get a 10% discount because I spend far too much on Casios there!.I love it., and sometimes put up the display in Russian for fun. Cheers 🍻!
Great video, Thank you.
Thx u for the detail🙏
A very excellent video. Very in depth. Interesting. Well done.
Thanks for the video, just settling up my watch by watching your video
Fantastic review. Thanks!
Very good review ! Thanks a lot
Nice and very well documented video. I actually have one similar to this, more than 20 years old. It has an incandescent little bulb for backlight. The display also have printed a little table on it, I think for schedule function. But for introducing letters you can use the keyboard like on the old phones,so it is a little faster. If I remember is the DBC 62 version, and is water resistant. It was not that cheap back then. Right now I have to check the battery,because I don't use it this days. And I have another old casio watch with a big solar cell and below is the display. Model is AL-190W and I think it is the only one I have without backlight. It says batteryless on the display. After about ten years in a box it started instantly in the light. Do you know if it really has no battery inside? I remember when I was using it back then, the display went blank only after a couple of days in the dark, and the time was reset to 12 00. Maybe it has a capacitor.
Yes, a Calculator Casio Standard, very nice!
G'evening Greg ☕☕ 😇 . The first watch I bought myself with my allowance back in 84' - 85' when I was a little kid was the original Back to the Future calculator watch 🤣 . fstfwd 35+ yrs and I'm still in the watch collecting Hobby and I'm currently wearing my 2nd calculator watch all these years later, a DBC32. Like you I have fat fingers and small the buttons maybe this one however will always be in my collection 😇 ..
You forgot the second most important part to review: How is it to use as a calculator?
Dammit Greg!!! You made me go on eBay and buy that Casio Micro Mini calculator in mint condition, in its original case 😂😂😂 I collect all things Casio 😎
The DBC-32 featured in "Chappie". Worn by actor Dev Patel (Deon).
Good explanation 😊
Thank u . Very nicely explained..
I learn something new. The repeat alarm every 23rd of the month so will never forgot our monthsary.
Спасибо за понятный обзор
The original Casio databanks from the late eighties and early nineties were incredible compared to these now. World time. Stopwatch and countdown timer. Telememo. Schedule and alarm. That would scroll a 12 character note across the display. An amazing watch that predated smart watches.
Sadly the memory features have been nerfed a bit from the older discontinued dbc-63/databank 150/300. Used to be able to store a number in the calculator
Yeah, they took a lot out of the data bank series.
Hi, I had a question, I have this Casio DCB 32 and need to change the battery, I am informed that if I use powerfull batteries of 3 volt 2025 from. Duracell or energizer, they might destroy the circuit of the watch, is it true, can you suggest a good battery manufacturer. 😢
The only thing that I need in this is the timer.
I have three of these models. The name and number has been useful as I have lost my phone twice. My most important numbers are in my watches!
Is there a way to add text to the data bank? Or is it just numbers? Would be nice if I could save PWs
Careful, the memory clears if the battery dies or is removed
How you change the day?
Bro ur a life saver I can now cheat I’m school maths thanks to u without the teacher knowing thanks 🙏
When i was a kid.. i swore that if i had a calculator watch i would be the smartest person on earth.. till this day i have never owned one..but i will buy it this weekend. I was def a watch loving kid with all types of diff casios growing up. All were watches i found only once did i get a f91 for Christmas. I was pretty happy but i still wished it had been a calculator watch. I also was lucky enough to find a g shock at a lake. I was to young to know what model. But def one of my best memories.
I've got the same
Set the alarm function is better on this than on a typical smartphone because you can set the alarm for a specific date and time. Smartphone alarms will not allow you to do amazingly. 11:06
cool❤❤😊
I love resin.
Is this model resistant to rainwater or handwashing? thank you.
I personnally forgot to take off mine severals times under the shower and it still works perfectly 😁
It only stores numbers? I’ll like to store passwords
The first line above the numbers can contain letters, but only a maximum of 8 characters there. The other lines below that would only contain numbers.
Casio really ought to let you just add or subtract a second. I don't want to waste 30 seconds just to fix the time at the end of the week.
is there any way to repair the buttons?
i got 3 buttons on the keypad that feel hard and dont do anything
I have both of them, how i have 236 watches
It doesn't say it's water resistants on it because it's actually pretty good water resistant i have put mine in a bucket full of water for a hour multiple times nothing happened
This watch is still ahead to other wrist watches except from smartwatch
Casio CA-53W is also the watch that Marty McFly wears in Back To The Future part 2
I wonder how easy it would be to do the display mod? Or even put a NFC tag in there?
