Casio reveals two new watches with slim digital display

Casio has revealed two new Vintage watches designed in collaboration with A.P.C. The French apparel brand has worked with the Japanese watchmaker before, creating watches like the A1000ACD-7 and the A1000ACG-9.

Now, Casio has announced the Vintage AQ240EAC-3A and AQ240EGAC-9A watches. These hybrid AQ240, or AQ-240, watches have a sunray finished dial with two analog hands. Plus, there is a slim digital display towards the bottom of the face. The AQ240EAC-3A has a blue dial with silver tone indexes matching the chrome plated bezel and stainless steel strap. The AQ240EGAC-9A is all gold, with a gold ion-plated metal strap.

The Casio AQ240 supports dual time, one zone displayed using the analog hands and another on the integrated screen. There are functions like a 1/100th second stopwatch, a daily alarm and hourly time signals. Users can also view the date and day of the week on the slim display. According to Casio, the watch should remain accurate to within 30 seconds each month, and the calendar is fully automatic. Plus, this model is water resistant for everyday use and should run for around three years on an SR920W battery.

At Casio’s online store in the US, the AQ240EAC-3A is listed with a $110 RRP, while the AQ240EGAC-9A is set to retail for $135. In European countries like Spain, the AQ-240EAC-3A is priced at €99.90, and the AQ-240EGAC-9A is listed at €119.00. Both watches are scheduled for release in November 2026, though an exact launch date has not been provided.
