Casio has released a ring in the form of its iconic watch

  • Six digit, not six segment. Each digit has seven segments.

    I've seen this a LOT lately, when did everyone forget what segments were?

  • The original announcement from Casio said they'd be making a ring version of the venerable DBC-611 calculator watch as well: https://www.g-central.com/casio-to-release-casio-watch-ring-...

    It looks like they've instead made a ring version of the CA-53W, which - in the staggeringly few times I see someone wearing a calculator watch - is usually the one they're wearing.

    I still wear a DBC-610 as my daily driver, and I do use the calculator and countdown timer features quite often.

  • Haha, I love it! I wear the gold calculator watch because it's fun and peculiar. I'd love to get a gold casio ring.

  • > The ring watch’s screen even has a light, and an alarm function that will flash the display instead of playing an audible sound

    That is a bit... Underwhelming isn't it?

  • I hope they included the iconic worst-in-the-world backlight into it.

  • This feels like something you’d win at a carnival

  • It looks a bit silly but also a lot of fun!

  • What is this, a watch for ants?

  • Looks like a mini GMW-B5000D: https://www.casio.com/us/watches/gshock/product.GMW-B5000D-1...

  • OMG, put it on a chain and wear it around my neck!

  • That could actually be really useful. I'd love to wear a dumbwatch again, and if it's that much smaller then its that much better. Will be keeping an eye out for one that isn't nostaliga-themed.

  • A wrap around display ring would be cool.

  • Digital watches in general have their charm https://youtu.be/mDVmdgao3RE?si=sfpEEkri1mmOvdAV

  • Cool and functional. I hope this comes to Europe too.

  • This is the type of thing I would not purchase for myself, but I’m happy to see exist. Brilliant design.

  • Not for me but I love the idea.

  • In Japan. The price is high but I still like it.

  • gorilla glass i hope, otherwise its scratch city for my clumsy hands

  • No....nope. Don't like it. Why would someone spend $128 for that?
