Casio's titanium Pro Trek PRW-69YT-7 surfaces in first real-world shots
Casio’s Pro Trek PRW-69YT-7 has turned up in real-world photographs for the first time, courtesy of the Instagram account geesgshock. He posted two shots of the titanium model this week.
What the images mostly reveal is how the case is finished. The bezel is a faceted, forged piece with the function labels printed directly onto the metal rather than onto a separate chapter ring, so "Adjust", "RC Indicator", "Comp", "Baro," and "Alti" are all resting on the bezel surface itself. Brushed flats alternate with polished chamfers between the facets. The bracelet follows the same logic; pairing brushed outer links with a brighter center.
One photograph catches the display lit. The backlight looks like a cool blue-violet shade instead of the green Casio often uses. Plus, the duplex LCD shows a compass bearing above the time. Both frames are studio shots on a display stand rather than wrist photos, so they still say nothing about how the watch actually looks on the wrist, and neither shows the caseback or the clasp.
Casio prices the PRW-69YT-7JF at 104,500 yen including tax, roughly $661, with an October release. That is more than double the 48,400 yen of the resin-band PRW-69Y-1JF. The titanium bracelet accounts for most of the difference, alongside sapphire glass carrying an anti-reflective coating on its inner surface.
The case utilizes biomass resin and stainless steel, with a titanium carbide treatment on the band and forged bezel for scratch resistance. Caliber 3514 handles Tough Solar charging, Multiband 6 radio sync across Japan, North America, Europe and China, and the Triple Sensor package that reads altitude, pressure, bearing and temperature. Water resistance is 100 meters.
