Arguably the best Casio of all time

This is the MCW-200H and I got it for $20 off Walmart and it is absolutely amazing quality and it is absolutely stunning, it’s not that big, and it is an even more affordable version of a CasiOak while in my opinion, looking even better.

[Rescued and restored] Vintage G-Shock DW-5600C Module 691

Rescued and restored: Vintage G-Shock DW-5600C Module 691
Picked up this early screw-back DW-5600C in rough shape and decided it deserved a second chance.
The watch came to me heavily worn with deteriorated resin, years of grime, and plenty of battle scars from what was clearly a well-lived life. Underneath it all, though, was an original module 691 and the classic stainless steel screw-back case that made these early squares legendary.
After a full teardown, cleaning, inspection, and rebuild with fresh resin, it’s back on the wrist and ready for another few decades of service.
There is just something special about these early G-Shocks:
Module 691
Stainless steel screw-back case
200m water resistance
Classic square design
Built like a tank
Amazing to think this watch is nearly 40 years old and still doing exactly what it was designed to do.

Restoring vintage G-Shocks is every bit as satisfying as bringing an old mechanical watch back to life.

Casio baby G BG 242 modul 1800 original manual - owner name display function

Looking for original Casio Baby-G BG-342 (Module 1800) manual – possible owner name display function

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to solve a mystery about my original Casio Baby-G BG-342, purchased around 1997–1999.

Watch details:

  • Model: BG-342
  • Module: 1800
  • Made in Korea
  • Original Baby-G G-ZONE fabric strap
  • Original protective metal guard

The watch still works perfectly.

The mystery

When the watch was new, I programmed my own first name ("LOTTE") into the watch using the original manual.

After programming it, the small circular display would automatically scroll:

L → O → T → T → E

in exactly the same area where the watch now displays:

  • the rotating G
  • animated weekday letters (SAT, FRI, etc.)
  • the small skateboard/surfer animation.

The name appeared automatically during the normal animation cycle. No button presses were needed.

Years later, after the battery completely died and was replaced, the programmed name disappeared permanently.

Observations

The circular display currently alternates between:

  • rotating G animation
  • animated weekday letters
  • skateboard/surfer animation

The G animation itself is not continuous—it follows a timed animation cycle.

This makes me believe the owner name replaced the standard G animation before the battery memory was lost.

What I'm looking for

  • Original Module 1800 manual
  • Anyone who owned a BG-342
  • Anyone who remembers an owner name / message function
  • Catalogs or service information mentioning this feature

I've searched online but haven't found any documentation.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Don’t mind the crappy Walmart band…the one it came with was too small so I got a new one in the mail

EDB-100

Just picked this one up. Polished it up, put a new battery in and it works great! 1995 i think is the release date guessing by the auto set year. If anybody knows anything about it let me know!

Casio is not fake. See it by yourself

The number 906582 on a Casio G-Shock DW-8200 Frogman indicates the specific serial number stamped on the case back, while DW-8200 refers to the iconic 1995 vintage diver line. The number format designates the production unit and titanium build, which is highly sought after by collectors globally.

Wore my Casio W-350 Marlin to work on Thursday 🐟

Had the silver Casio W-350 Marlin on the wrist at the office today.
I really enjoy how sleek and classy this one looks with work clothes. The vintage 80s design still feels fresh, and that little Marlin fish logo always makes me smile.
What I love most though are the four screws on the bezel corners — such a nice industrial touch that gives it so much character.
These old Marlins are quickly becoming some of my favourite daily wear pieces.
Anyone else wearing a vintage Casio Marlin to work lately?

CASIO W-300-4

For a long time, the CASIO W-300-4 felt like a myth.
Prototype? Promo sample? Custom mod?
But it turns out… it was real.
