Casio first released the digital watch in 1974 with a simple but elegant timepiece. During the late 70's Casio watches were evolving with new complications added to their range. In the 1980's their digital watches started breaking new ground with incredible innovations that were way ahead of their time. From melody watches, calculator watches to data bank watches, the Casio digital watch became every boys tech watch dream. This channel is dedicated to bringing those watch memories back and marvel at a time before the popularity of G-Shocks, Edifices and the like. Come cherish those boyhood memories with me as we explore the world of Casio watches.
Thank you so much. While changing my battery on W96h I faced the same problem and was devastated as its my first childhood watch but now its all good to go
I’m not sure it’s original. I have the F87w, exactly the same and it is not Made in Thailand and doesn’t have this green color light coming from the lates F91w. Something anachronical is not told here...
Thanks 4 your video 🙂 at 12:31 Where you open the J-52 its is seen, that there is no "Rubber Conductive" inserts to activate the two front buttons. I have a SW-110, with similar case and frame, witch is not working, And I suspected that I have lost the inserts, but looking at your video, is seems there are non installed. Also you are not installing any "conductive things" when putting the watch back together at 22:45. I have tested min out of the case, and they work, but its as if they do not reach the contact when pressing. Any thoughts, with your expertise?
I was looking at vintage catalogs and i think it's one of the best looking resin model. I wish casio had an official online database with good pictures of all models ever made. The F-700 and W-28 (with the blue outline) among other also grabbed my attention. They should re-make them ("Made in japan") and make money :)
I inherited a Casio 95QS-31 from my father and changed the battery successfully. Unfortunately I cannot close the backcap. Are there any additional clips necessary? I have found only two springs. Can I close the cap just with a closing tool ? Thank You for help.
Si casio volviera a sacar a la venta los modelos clásicos de los 80tas así como sigue produciendo el f91 vendería miles de relojes porque hay muchísima gente queriendo tener los relojes clásicos de los 80tas y ver lo que esta produciendo ahora son relojes muy feos.
Just found it now. Thanks for the informative video. I got the watch from my father. He wore it for a few years and then it sat in a drawer for years. I changed the battery and it started working immediately. It looks very elegant but it's not my style. Setting up the "computer" is very difficult. I didn't manage to do it. Greetings from Germany, Gereon.
@@donkokaj7272 Hi, in principle, I could sell the watch because I don't wear it. Before it ends up in a drawer for years. I'm not sure whether the mini computer works properly. I can't operate it.
@@GereonvonHagen that would be awesome. The mini computer isn't that important honestly, if it tells the time thats good enough. I don't live in Germany but I do have friends in Stuttgart, maybe we could work something out.
Yo tuve ese reloj a los 4 años y aunque ahora tengo varios casio antiguos de colección, quiero conseguir eso y no he podido , me recordé de muchos momentos bellos , solo tengo Una foto con ese reloj cuando era niño
You save my life Brother!!!! i buy a DB-55w and the sound not work and I was out of these springs and didn't know where to find them, thank you very much!!!
I bought a used A159W 593 module, but there is no sound. Did i miss that spring? I opened it but i don't see any place where it is supposed to be. And I don't see any nylon isolation cover so the metal cover of the battery don't touch the back cover of the watch. So do I missing the spring or the nylon battery cover? Back cover has that metal disk used for alarm glued correctly on it.
I will answer my question, in case someone has the same no sound problem like me. My A159W model with the newer version of 593 module inside, it didn't had any spring. It was just that white nylon isolating piece that i was missing, and this was the reason that i didn't had sound. I put a piece of insulating tape on it, to cover the left and right extension of the battery cover, leaving only the top extended part of the battery cover and the bottom extended part of the module touching the back case of the watch, and now it works fine! So anything nylon, or cellophane, or a piece of a vinyl glove (you probably have some of those laying around from the covid era) will work. And by now that i am thinking of it, maybe i should have used something with less glue than the insulating tape...
I just posted on anotther site ( this seems to be the Internet.flavor of the week) that this model should be reaurrected! It does look similar to rhe Armitron Rerun,I beleive!
I've just put a new battery in my F-85 for the first time since the original battery stopped working in the 90's at some point and it works perfectly! 🤩 I need to fit a new strap though as the original one disintegrated. Thanks for the review. I think I paid the princely sum of £20 for mine back in the 80's.
Could you please tell which characters can be entered in the name mode? Only A-Z letters, 0-9 digits, a space, a colon, a dash and a dot, or something else too?
