Casio Vintage and Retro: the digital watches that never go out of style
There's a fascinating paradox in contemporary watchmaking: while the market chases ever more sophisticated complications and increasingly exclusive materials, some of the world's most coveted watches cost less than a dinner out. They are the Casio Vintage — small objects of industrial design that have crossed four decades remaining exactly true to themselves, and precisely for this reason have become icons.
The Casio F-91W is, in all likelihood, the best-selling watch in history. Launched in 1989, it weighs 21 grams, runs on a battery for about 7 years, is water-resistant, and offers a stopwatch, alarm, and backlight. Its design — square black resin case, digital display, lightweight strap — has become an archetype recognised at every latitude. Students and astronauts wear it, creatives and military personnel, Barack Obama and Bill Gates. It's no coincidence: the F-91W is democratic design in its purest form.
The stainless steel classics:
But the Casio Vintage collection at Watchello goes well beyond. The Casio A158WEA and the Casio A168WA, with their silver-toned stainless steel cases and bracelets, have become a cross-generational style phenomenon: you'll find them on the wrists of models during fashion weeks and designers who choose them as a statement of understatement. The Casio A700, with its slimmer profile and larger display, represents the modern evolution of the vintage concept — perfect for those who want something more without betraying the original spirit.
Variants and colours:
The Vintage collection has been enriched over the years with gold, rose gold, and black finishes, as well as special editions with coloured dials. The Casio LA670, in its more compact women's version, is an absolute bestseller, while the Casio CA-53W, the famous "calculator watch", continues to fascinate with its micro-keypad — a piece of wearable tech history.
At Watchello you'll find the entire Casio Vintage and Retro range, with prices starting from under €20. These are watches that don't ask to be protected or admired: they simply ask to be worn, every day, without a second thought. And that is exactly their secret.
