Casio reveals new minimalist watches with sapphire crystal

The Casio standard MTS watch range is gaining a new model: the MTS-120. Arriving in four variants, this new analog timepiece has a minimal design with a round dial protected by sapphire crystal.

Casio’s MTS-120 is a metal watch, with a silver tone stainless steel case measuring 45.0 x 39.0 x 8.3 mm (~1.77 x 1.54 x 0.33 inches). The compact timepiece comes with a matching metal bracelet with a triple fold clasp, weighing 103 g (~3.6 oz) in total. Each variant has a different colored dial: the MTS-120D-1A’s is black, the MTS-120D-2A’s is blue, the MTS-120D-3A’s is green, and the MTS-120D-7A’s is silver.

The Casio MTS-120 features three analog hands for the hour, minute and second. According to the brand, these should remain accurate to within 20 seconds each month. The model is also water resistant to 50 m and should run for around three years on an SR626SW battery.

At the Casio Store in Thailand, the MTS-120D-1A, MTS-120D-2A, MTS-120D-3A and MTS-120D-7A are listed with a ฿3,900 (~$115) RRP. At the time of writing, it is unclear when these watches will be launched in this country. Casio has also yet to announce whether or when they could be released in other markets like North America.
