Limited edition Casio watches with metal straps coming to Europe

The Casio Vintage x Liberty limited edition watches are rolling out more widely in Europe. These analog-digital watches were recently unveiled in the UK, where they are scheduled for release on November 20th.

Now, Casio has listed these Vintage AQ-230E series watches at its online stores in countries like the Netherlands, France and Germany. In the EU, the AQ-230EBLT-1A (gunmetal gray case, black strap) will retail for €139, while the AQ-230ELT-7A (silver case, silver strap) will be cheaper at €119. Here, they are also scheduled for a November 2025 release, though the exact date is not given. Prospective customers are invited to sign up on the product page to receive an email notification when these watches launch.

Casio’s Vintage x Liberty watches feature the British brand’s iconic Paisley Fanfare print laser-engraved across the dial and strap. Each has a plated resin casing, measuring 38.8 x 29.8 x 8.1 mm (~1.5 x 1.2 x 0.3 inches), and comes with a stainless steel band. They should run for around three years on the battery, and are also marketed as water resistant.

Features of the Casio AQ-230E include support for dual time, one zone shown with the two analog hands, and another on the slim digital display. There are tools like a daily alarm, hourly time signals and a 1/100th second stopwatch. Plus, the calendar is automatic, and the date is also shown on the screen. It remains to be seen whether or when the Casio Vintage x Liberty AQ-230EBLT-1A and AQ-230ELT-7A watches could be released in the US.
