Celebrate the 50th anniversary of Casio watches with the limited edition all-new Casiotron, a re-creation of the first-ever Casio wristwatch.

With its debut in 1974, the Casiotron was the world’s first digital watch with an automatic calendar that automatically adjusted for longer and shorter months.

The all-new TRN-50 pays homage to the groundbreaking original while integrating today’s cutting-edge technology. With a meticulous reproduction of the original design, both in look and size, the external diameter is essentially the same, at 39.1mm, and the profile measures 0.3mm slimmer.

You’ll find touches of the original throughout this limited edition, echoing that first design in the textured case and band, its dark blue dial, the Casiotron logo, and numerous other details.

The case back features the same symbol as the original, slightly updated to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Casio watches.

Each limited-edition timepiece is accompanied by an engraved serial number (0001/4000 – 4000/4000), just to highlight how rare these special watches are.

What to do with Broken Watches?

G Shock Battery Replacement

G Shock battery life ranges from two to six years, depending on how often you use the alarm or the backlight. Frequent use of either feature drains the battery pretty fast hence, the need for replacement. The life of the replacement battery, on the other hand, depends on how long it has been sitting on the shelf. Its shelf life is ten years in room temperature after which it goes through gradual degradation.

G Shock Strap Replacement

G Shock watches are known to last a lifetime, but the bands wear out after prolonged use. To replace them, place the watch facing downwards on a soft cloth, unhook the spring bars located at the base of each strap. Some models have the bars covered while others are exposed. Use a spring-bar removal tool to unhook and pull the band away from the watch. Repeat the process to remove the other spring bar. Replace them with the rod slots of the new band and use the spring-bar tool to fasten the bands. The procedure applies when replacing rubber straps. Metallic bands require a little tact hence, the need to engage a professional.
