Hi Mark: It’s a cool watch. It reminds me of my first digital…..when they were the new thing. The dark display looks like the front of a microwave oven. 😊 The dealbreaker for me, however, is having to activate the pusher to see the time. That would drive me nuts all day long. A great thing would be if the LCD would activate whenever you lifted your arm.
I’m so sorry about that! But I still think it’s a fantastic watch with quite a great appeal. Thank you so much for watching. I hope you enjoy the video. It’s not a lot of money. Give one shot!
Got the green LED one here in the UK. The finish to the case is very good. They also do an LCD, which is again stainless steel, so better than a chromed plastic Casio.
It was being developed in the late 1960s, but was officially released in 1972. So it wasn’t ever publicized/open to the public but the technology was there in the 1960s.
I can't find a silver one with red LED ,i could only find gold with red LED the silver ones are green LED or Blue . I'd love to find a silver with red LED ,no luck so far . Great review btw ,these watches don't get enough love .
I found this bracelet on Amazon. I simply searched up 16-22 mm expansion band and I was able to find this one. But you can also find many of these on eBay under Speidel or Hadley Roma.
Link to the strap pls? Cannot find it

If you look through my videos, I’ve actually reviewed the Rubik. Take a look at it.
Mine’s only lost two seconds in three months. It’s a good timepiece as a matter of fact.
Just bought one of these a few weeks ago. Very cool piece with surprisingly nice finishing.
Very nice for the price !
Me too ,just bought a silver with green LED for £25 on Amazon UK.
I don't think you'd have seen something like that in the late 60's ..... what year did the Hamilton PSR come out .....?

Pls give link to strap, I cannot find it anywhere
Were the old LEDs ever dot matrix? I remember them as segmented.
Yes they were
You didn’t happen to notice when you looked inside, what battery it takes?
These are great watches.
It’s either at 1220 or 2016 I never really checked.
@@markcoffman494 No problem, just thought I’d ask, cheers!
If the DMC-12 was a watch…
Could you tell us the bracelet details, please? I'll try to get one for my Griffy.
