Fun watches

I just picked up a Casio Databank in green. I saw it, and immediately reminded me of my early teens. It’s a cool piece. I have other Casio, Seiko, and Timex watches, that I love. I give my Rolex watches rest from time to time. I get a lot of comments on the Databank. “ Wow, I like that calculator watch.” Brings back good memories is the most common.

Had to look it up. You're right, that's pretty neat in a retro way.

I’m wearing it now. For about $20.00, can’t go wrong. They have other colors as well.

Looks like Casio and Texas Instrument had a baby, back in 1980.

I wore a Casio Data Bank for work from the 80s to the 00s. Pre-Apple watch.
