CASIO WATCHES: 50 Years of Casio Watch Highlights in 10 Minutes
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 сен 2024
- Yes I know I'm cheating to get to 50 years as the casiotron came out in 1974, but it was commissioned in 1972, so its totally 50 years.... My Rise of Casio series totalled out at over 2 hrs of content, which I presume is probably a bit too much for the masses, so I set myself the challenge of boiling it down to 10 minutes.
We cover the origins of casio in the world of calculators. The 70s with the original casiotron models with alarm, chronograph and world time. The 80s with calculator watches, sensor watches, the original g-shock square and some 80s tactic designs like the F-15. We cover the 90s and the true risk of G-shock with Master of G and the Frogman as well as other sub-brands like Protrek. 2000s-2020 where it all gets ridiculous with Master models like the mudmaster, gravity master gulf master and such - as well as the world of radio controlled watches. If you enjoy this whistle stop version - do check out the full rise of casio series I've done.

Very good video. I love Casio digital watches.
It's amazing how much Casio contributed to world progress by offering such good value for money watches in so many models. :)
I know right! Got to love casio!
Yes except many of early Casio's were just a Seiko hommage,one example is Casio Royale which was a blatant copy of iconic G757 earned a shit tone of money for Casio!!
Yet it so easily to crap on Chinese brands for copying Casio!!
I think the casio royale was released in 2012 so it’s a homage absolutely, but I don’t think discredits their earlier innovation. Although not the first, their pseudo analogs like the AA-85 were amongst the more innovative options. I’m not aware of too many out and out seiko copies from them , but I’m sure I could be mistaken!! But absolutely , seiko were the real drivers in early days!
@@dado380 I never really understood the “royale” thing. The only thing it really has in common is the square display and faux-analogue watch, both of which were on dozens of watches before and after the g757.
Exatamente! Maravilhosos
i like the ultrathin design like in 3:36.
I like to call my casio watches precious resin.
I don’t know where you’d even begin to try and hone down your amazing history of Casio videos into just 10 minutes but not only did you manage it, you absolutely smashed it! So much detail and information in such an easily digestible package. Amazing work 🙌 Oh and I love the thumbnail too 😂
Ah Thankyou! Too kind! I just wasn’t able to be quite as indulgent on non watch related stuff and cut out any fluff. Still wanted to have broad coverage as the goal was to be a shot of all of casio for less familiar folks. Now they know kung fu… I mean casio :)
Wtfff everything Casio did, the Apple Watch copied
Outstanding video. I had no idea you made videos, forgive me! Oh well, better late then never. I look forward to watching much more of your excellent work.
Thank you, onwards and upwards!
Best regards,
TGV
Well this made my day!! What a pleasure to have you in the comments and really appreciate the kind words.
I guess the RUclips algorithm gods are favouring the channel because it was suggested in my frontpage too, and you know how questionable RUclips suggestions are getting as of lately
Definitely quality work in here
dayum urban gentry is here!!
My favorite Casio will always be the Casio DBC150-1 Databank Digital Watch. The version of this watch I had was the DBC50 with only 50 pages of memory. The key feature of this watch was to allow you to schedule appointments then show you what appointments you had next week. I had this watch a long time before cell phones. It also had a calculator, world time, phone numbers, alarm etc.
This is the most thorough history I’ve seen. Well done!!! I will be referring back to this video when in need to brush up on my history.
Thanks for checking it out - really appreciated!!
Thanks for putting effort into making these videos. It was a nostalgic journey!
Much appreciated!
Kudos to sir Tadao Kashio for inventing this super amazing Timepiece💪🏼 it is really worth every penny when you Own this watch we Salute you 😎 🇯🇵 👏🏻
I own a Casio DBC 150 Silver Calculator Watch and is Water Resistant up to 50 Meters I still love it
Awesome watch!
100% Awesome Watch
Love casio and love your content! Keep up the good work and I'll keep watching
Thanks so much!!
Always a Casio Fan since I was a kid. Because Why ? because of the sheer value for money and performance !
Amen!
I hope they get silly again. Their watches are a little quirky still but definitely serious in comparison.
Amazing video. Your powers of summarizing are fantastic, to sum up Casio's crazy lines and innovations of 50 years in just 10, and to get most if not all the most important mentioned is no mean feat. Congrats!
Thankyou Thankyou. Lots missing of course but try to give a dose of most aspects of casiodom
This channel is so underrated. Such a deep research and high quality content. You deserve 1M ++ subs bro!!!! I'm gonna press like and subscribe! cheers!!
Thankyou! Really glad you enjoyed and welcome to the channel!
Casio remains consistent in making its original watch recipe

They looked times better than the G-Shocks of today. I would wear all of them instead of G-shock. Nice video! Never knew those existed.

In 1972 Casio was born
1:48 did you just pronounce tortoise as TOR-TOYS??? 😮😮
Yes yes yes which is exactly how you pronounce it! 🐢
Apologies but the Queen’s English is pronounced as TOR-DISS. 😃 still love your channel though
@@aidenho6085 I’ll forgive you then ;)
What a fantastic video! 👍
Too kind!
The last four or five years Casio has gotten pretty lazy with their technology what they do with their G-Shocks and all their watches is they redo the same watch but they just do it in different colors so you're getting a different different colored watch with the same module they're not doing anything special with their technology anymore they need to start thinking outside the box again
I do think that you make a very fair point here….Some fun watches but fewer technological leaps. Most of this is more in the smart watch domain with OLED and Micro LED displays , more advanced sensors (love my PRW-30 though) and integration with other technologies. Casio is left more with materials (like the full metal G and various MRG models) and design plays (like the Casioak), although I did like the GBD200 and the MIP display.
Casio watches resin/rubber whatever wristband, don't last. Their lugs should be redesigned so after market bands easy to find or fit.
That’s fair challenge. A lot of the vintage models I’m interested in are unwearable because of resin rot :(
Thank U Between this & Ur thorough video on Casio Proteck I am now Subscribed.😎🙏👍
Welcome! Thanks so much for subscribing. I’ll try to keep you interested!
駆け足でしたが一気にカシオの歴代モデル網羅されてますね。ただ一部のモデルは日本では販売されていませんでした。また、ビルゲイツ氏はリストカメラモデルを愛用していた時期があったと思います。
Was a challenge to squeeze so much in the time but that was part of the fun. Definitely had the feedback from some that was too fast though!
$60 in 1972 (casion mini calc) would be about $400 today.
This is a fair point! You forget that
You didn't stumble once. Good job and great vid. Would love to own a few of those past models.
Thankyou very much! The power of editing saved a few of my stumbles, but I do do in one take
1972-2022 The 50th Anniversary of the Brand Casio
Very informative. I like the marlin series a lot. I’m wearing a one68aw right now
A very cool series of Casios
They really need to bring those 80s collection back they look so cool and futuristic 😮
This is porn... jk, but seriously. Great work, i appreciate this.
Ha ha no judgement here! So glad you enjoyed. Much more of this type of stuff on the channel !
I'm 95% sure that the watch at 2.26 is the one I had as a kid, it was the first thing I ever wore everyday and actually looked after (destructive lad☝🏻). It was £29.99 out of argos and I loved it. I'd really like to get another one but wouldn't have the first clue where to start....so here goes. Omg the things I wish I'd kept 🤦🏼♂️🫤
Oh nice - the tank!! Shouldn’t have got rid of that!
The first watch I ever bought myself was a Casio F-100 at Singapore Airport on my way home to Australia in 1979 when I was 19. I had AUD $30 cash left and chose the F-100 because it was $27. I wore it through the '80s, wore out the strap, replaced it and a few batteries. Then it went in the drawer I think because I was given another watch by a girlfriend. I found it again this year and took it to a repairer out of curiosity. It ran immediately on a new battery, surprising the repairer and delighting me. It now has a smart new plain leather strap and I'm wearing it again. And I've recently bought a Casio AE1200 to recall an old favourite G757 which died around 2000.
Great Video. I found a minor mistake in your video. You showed one of my all-time favourite watches the CFX-200 you showed (and made a minor mistake by calling it CFX-20)
I got myself a CFX-200 recently and it really is the watch i get the most comments for. I just love it. It's really expensive but worth every penny you spent. Great little watch.
You just showed me a bunch of watches i've never heard of and immedietly searched up to buy. Please do more videos about vintage casios
Damn! Good spot. The 20 is the resin and 200 the metal I believe. Glad you enjoyed! Lots more vintage Casios on the channel already and more on the way. Stick around!
@@IlluminatingWatches I will do. It's such a nice hobby to collect those pieces. I'm going for the early Pro-Trek (PRT 40) next it think. Or i buy the previous model the ATC-1000 because it was produced in my birthyear.
Oh nice! Ive done a video on the history of protrek that may be of interest :)
@@IlluminatingWatches I've just watched that a few minutes ago. Very interesting. The early models of the protrek line are the ones i stylistically enjoy the most. The PRT 20 looks pretty good too. Maybe i go for that one because it looks like something won't be embarassed wearing in public like the enourmous PRT-40😅
1980 H110 106 marlin....imo...the most elegant design...they got too bulky later
Its crazy to think how good quality Casio watches are made for an affordable price. My childhood G-Shock still works amazingly well after 3 decades.
Tell me about it ! Love them
Shewww well done sir. Any videos on the Casio standard collection? Hardly see any videos on them even though they quite popular
Thanks so much! I’ve done individual deep dives on the 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s and 2010s but haven’t covered the more recent catalogue in much detail.
@@IlluminatingWatches awesome thanks! The Casio standard collection watches are quite cost effective so keen to see how good they are 😁
No mention of Baby G watches for the female segment. I maybe a male, but I think Casio did balance the genders.
My first Casio was one of the Marlin series and I do miss it.
Hi! I do cover the beginning of the baby G in my 90s casio video. Couldn’t squeeze it in here. Very fair comment though!
@@IlluminatingWatches No worries. This is the first video I watched on your channel, so I didn't check out the rest of the videos that you did.
No Way! You should've highlighted Keanu's Speed G-Shock, My second favorite after the Cosmo Phase
Hello, my name is Pyjamarama and I am addicted to Casio watches
Ha ha welcome. This is a safe space!
Just purchased the GA-2100 and will buy an all white version and purchase the mod kit for it. The Rangeman is GOD TIER!!!!
Damn so much info in such a compact video and you managed it, well done. The watch I wanted as kid is at 3:51, and I swore I owned that model but I actually had the one after, it was my first watch, thank you so much man, I've just recently gone down the Casio rabbit hole, I'm going to seek those two out.
Come on down the rabbit hole - it’s fun! Ha ha glad you enjoyed!!
You just melted my brain. And I thank you. 😆
Ha ha ha I wanted it to feel like you were plugging into the matrix learning kung fu
I have the Casio B650W
Looks classy
Love it
Great watch!
What about the 5566 module? The sweeping hand one
Just looked into this. Cool watches. I’m biased a bit towards the digital range , so likely missed some key things from their analog range like this sweeping hands module.
The early watches look gorgeous.
At the time they were luxury items!
@@IlluminatingWatches they probably cost more than Swiss watches at the time.
Why's your voice so broken? Half of the words you speak fade out and difficult to hear continuously..
Casio rules its industry...nothing comes close
Amen!! In the late 70s seiko was there, but now I agree that casio is the dominant force
That's a good guide on what Casio should do. Like most brands, a step into the past is actually a good pace forward.
Agreed! Such an amazing historical catalog to draw upon.
My father ha autowindig digital one which had interestinc circuit board... sad we don hav any digital self winding ones ewen today... well im not sure if it was really self widin but thts wat they said.😊
10mins to start of Mexican grand prix 2022
Perfect time slot for a casio video!
I’m curious how the dictionary worked
Fair question! I’ve no idea. I would guess there is probably just a prestored bank of words
Loved it. You missed the Casio Morse Code brother.
Just covered a morse code watch from Tokyo flash though! Thanks man!
Very innovative
Love this video, it's so cool... I found out my first Casio was called "The Snorkel".
Oh awesome the snorkler is an absolute classic!
Casio should bring back a 300m WR watch just for giggles.
Also seems like fm trasmitter receiver version like a good one. If range is good anywy.
I love Casios!
Amazing video! I love my ga2100 and seeing it mentioned in your video makes me feel good in some way, nicely done mate 👍
Thanks so much! Every watch has a little bit of history!
I have a Casio Gshock G-2900 since the year 2009. It is still functioning even though it has an LCD problem and the numbers are blurry. I replaced its strap many times but the main body is intact. The 10 year battery was legit. I replaced it with a new battery just a year ago. It is truly a very durable and quality watch. Do not hesitate to buy Casio Gshock.
I love a G-SHOCK!
'Marlin' is stollen from Timex.
I think it’s actually a nickname - and the image might actually be of a sailfish rather than a marlin
I still have the telephone dialler, the moonphase, a tough solar and a Sea Pathfinder tide watch (which has now been running on it's original battery for 16 YEARS !).
What amazing watches to have!!
Thank you for the subtitles
No problem
That's the best thumbnail ever
Ha ha Thankyou I’ve never quite been able to replicate the success!
God tier
Why did Casio become so boring
Ha ha hopefully not just because of how I’ve presented it. Wouldn’t say they were too boring - especially on the g-shock side of things - but the main range is perhaps slightly less pioneering than in the past.
No mention of the Wubi pipe?
But otherwise wow, a great video. Lots of work went into this!
Check out my 70s casio video ;) it’s in there . Had to cut to get to 10mins.
You win the thumbnail war 👍
Yes this one seem to work well! Keanu never lets you down
Great video, Casio is the king of the hill never stop to innovate, thank for the video
Always return to casio!
im here to find out when did f105w release..
I I think maybe 1995 when the module 1275 came out. I’ve seen it listed as using module 3298 too. Not certain though :)
@@IlluminatingWatches thanks man..even f105w release date is not in the vdeo..but really appreciate it..
great job! really good video
Very glad you enjoyed! Thankyou!
Like Casio I'm number one Jimmy! Great vid mate, now to gird my loins and attack the 2 hr version again.
Ha ha that is commitment - you are a true casio head now ;)
This is incredible
Thankyou so much ! :)
this was genius! thank you
What's with the subtitles that can't be removed? Heaps uneccesarry, you have a nice clear voice!
Had a few comments on my prior faster videos that it was occasionally hard to follow , especially with references. I knew this one would be fast so thought the subtitles may help . Not something I will be doing as routine! Thanks for watching!
What a video very good. Amazing how you got all that in a short video haha 😊
Ha ha yep it was hard crunching it down!!
Not forgetting the dw290 worn by Tom cruise in mission impossible and the f91w in the reaceantly released morbius.
Absolutely! Casio watches across the first 3 of the mission impossible films.
@@IlluminatingWatches
Great video 👍
Casio is my favorite watches brand, great variety and afforable.
Me too!
I love how minimalist and retro the fs-12 looks. I hope they reintroduce them in the future.
Yeh I like that one too. The F-15 is nice
Bought an Alti-Depth in June 1990 (the one w/orange pushers), worked only two years. 🙄
Boo! It’s a pretty early version of their sensor tech. I’ve got a depth gauge - zero idea whether it works or not as no opportunity to test!
@@IlluminatingWatches tested that summer in a five meters depth public pool and the Corsican sea. Very accurate. Also the milli bar sensor worked well. But it didn't last. 💔
Such a well made video. 👍🏻 Really good.
That’s very kind of you to say Thankyou!!
Parabéns pelo vídeo conteúdo bem interessante 👏👏👏
Thankyou! Very kind!
Best one!
Thankyou! Yes seems to have been popular!
GREAT VIDEO!! I Friggin love you, Illuminating Watches! No Schilling crap content here. Could reach out and hug you for this.
Ha ha ha now that’s the enthusiasm I like to see. Thankyou that made my day!
@@IlluminatingWatches Eagerly looking forward to the extended version. Please don't deny us the full uncut history!!
Already available if you have a free two hours! It’s split into 70s , 80s, 90s, 2000s, 2010s on my rise of casio series
Now you're my officially go-to channel for digital watches
Ha ha glad to hear it! Stay tuned for more! Plenty in the back catalog too :)
Wow!
Thankyou :)
casios are so interesting 🤘
So many angles to explore with casio!
GREAT COLLECTION WATCHES
Great video to fit so much history in!
Thankyou! Was a bit of a squeeze but folks seem to be enjoying!
Great video 👍👍
Where the Baby G?
Have a look at my 90s casio deep dive. I go into its history there. Couldn’t quite squeeze it in this one - but perhaps I should have as I agree it’s an important one
@@IlluminatingWatches dope! Ima check it out
Amazing and interesting history with a fantastic video to match. Thank you so much. 😊
Thankyou! It’s pretty full on , but I struggle to cut things out.
@@IlluminatingWatches You could always make a "part two", if you are concerned of cuts. That is what I would do. 🤙🏻
Wow. Imagine owning all or even half of these.
We can but dream ha ha
Another well researched video...
Thankyou 🙏
Congratulations! The best video I saw about Casio.
Oh Thankyou so much!! I’ve got other casio videos too , so do take a look!
@@IlluminatingWatches I'll do for sure!!!
Great video and loads of interesting info 👍
Thankyou! Glad you enjoyed. If you want a deeper dive there are all sorts of other videos on the channel on casio history
I love Casio.
