Casio debuts two vintage dual-time watches with green dials and a time-saving feature in US

Casio has unveiled two vintage watches with a distinctive green and gold colorway in the US—the AQ230GA-3A with angular corners and the AQ240EG-3A with rounded corners. This follows their UK lanuch in September. Analog and digital displays allow wearers to see dual times at a glance. A slim body and light weight make them an easy pick for everyday wear.

The retro Casios utilize 5154 watch modules to operate their main analog dials and secondary digital displays. Powered by SR920W watch batteries, the watches can run up to three years before replacement, notes the company. The 5154 module drives a common array of digital display modes controlled by three buttons, including date, current time, world time, single alarm, and stopwatch modes, with an accuracy of +/- 30 seconds per month.

The analog dial arrives pared down without a second hand, reducing power draw and the sensation of passing time. Its textured green background reflects light in different ways with changing viewing angles, creating a more dimensional appearance that Casio likens to a ray of sunlight.

Both come with a time-saving feature that reduces the need to visit a watch store—gold-plated stainless steel bands with an adjustable clasp that makes resizing easy at home.

The angular AQ230GA-3A measures 38.8 × 29.8 × 8.1 mm (1.53 x 1.17 x 0.32 in) and weighs 47 g (1.66 oz), while the rounded AQ240EG-3A measures 40.9 × 35.8 × 8.1 mm (1.61 x 1.41 x 0.32 in) and weighs 51 g (1.80 oz).

The AQ230GA-3A can be ordered for $79.95 and the AQ240EG-3A can be ordered for $94.95 from the company's website. Readers interested in different colorways can browse through the other Casio AQ230 models on Amazon.
