Have to say for a late 90's watch the Casio A-220 Futurist is packed to the gills with features. One of the features of the Casio A-220 that I wasn't sure of in the video was the Progress Indicator function. Working on the Casio A-220's tutorial video, I have now worked out that it refers to an alarm going off a predetermined countdown times as it 'progresses' to zero. These intervals are where the alarm (or vibration if it is activated) indicates progression at the 10, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 minute marks as well as the 50, 40, 30, 20, 10, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 second marks. Hope it helps! Cheers, Tony - WTA
Very unique and awesome design! I had no idea Casios with a vibration function existed but it's definitely useful. I finally get to have the only feature of a smart watch that I care about on a classic watch :D I gotta see if I can get my hands on one of these from somewhere.
Glad that the video was of some help. The other Casio that I have featured on the channel that vibrates is the Casio W-735H, which may be a bit more easier to get hold of brand new than the one featured in the video (A-202). Cheers, Tony - WTA

I’ve got one of these watches somewhere that I used to wear in around 2000. I liked the retro/modern design at the time. I’ll have to dig it out.
Interesting design but I don't like negative displays.
