Jan 9th
The Casio Baby-G BGA-133 watches feature a Neon Illuminator that achieves original visual effects using a black light LED combined with special luminous ink. In the dark, the watchfaces glow with marks inspired by rock music, and the hands illuminate to create a one-of-a-kind visual effect.
The black Casio BGA-133-1B watch with gold watchface and red BGA-133-4B watch both feature a prominent star in the center of the watchface. The white BGA-133-7B watch features a watchface with cartoonish skulls that playfully illuminate to a cute shade of pink.
The BGA-133 watches feature large, sculpted numerals in different colors than the face, making them easier to read and accenting the watch design.

Casio Releases Baby-G Watches Designed by Ke$ha
Oct 24th
Casio announced the release of new Baby-G watches featuring Ke$ha. Bringing her signature brand of style to fashionistas everywhere, global superstar and platinum selling singer/songwriter Ke$ha joins the Baby-G brand in announcing the launch of two Ke$ha-designed watches. Known for her fashion bravado, trendsetting accessories and overall style, when Ke$ha sang the most-played song of 2010 “TiK ToK,” the Baby-G brand listened. As ambassador for the popular watch line, the singer used her iconic imagery and one-of-a-kind style to develop this fall’s most exciting wrist wear.
Watches created in the collaboration between Ke$ha and Baby-G demonstrate the head-turning style that make both Ke$ha and Baby-G unique to their loyal fans. Ke$ha tackles two of her most signature themes in the design of her timepieces—animal print and All-American. Both watches are also adorned with Ke$ha’s signature “K$” logo.
The BGA-200KS conjures up Ke$ha’s wild side, as well as what is arguably the most identifiable theme in Ke$ha’s music, imagery and style, by using an animal print. She designed this watch with a leopard print pattern on the watch’s face and also its black resin strap.
For the second design’s look, Ke$ha created the patriotic BG-5600KS model, which features the colors and shapes of the American flag with red, white and blue in stars and stripes.
“Designing these two watches was very cool,” said Ke$ha. “I made them to be a reflection of my personality, music and style, and I hope people everywhere will have as much fun wearing them as I had designing them!”
The attention-grabbing watches also have the functionality that sets the Baby-G brand apart. Both models are shock resistant and 100 meters water resistant and equipped with an LED light with afterglow, world time from 48 cities and 29 time zones, and 1/100-second stopwatch. The BGA-200KS has a combination digital-analog face, and the BG-5600KS is all digital.
Ke$ha’s energy, spirit and style make her a perfect partner for Casio’s dynamic Baby-G brand, and theses fashionable watches are a result of this fantastic collaboration. To see the entire Casio Baby-G collection – Click here
Casio Introduces New PROTREK Watch with 200 Meters Water Resistance
Sep 22nd
Casio continues to improve its PROTREK series of outdoor watches featuring sensor technology by incorporating advice from expert mountain climbers and trail runners. The PRG-130 released in 2008 gained popularity as the first triple-sensor watch with 200-meter water-resistance. The three sensors enable display of compass bearings, atmospheric pressure/altitude and temperature.
Along with the popular tide graph and 200-meter water resistance, the new triple-sensor PRG-250 and 250T boast a dual-layer LCD that can display different types of data simultaneously.
Atmospheric pressure is not only shown numerically and in a trend graph, but also via a new barometric trend information function. When there is a characteristic change in atmospheric pressure data when altitude has not changed, a corresponding arrow icon appears to indicate the change: sudden rise / fall in atmospheric pressure, or high / low pressure passing. These icons make it easier to forecast weather changes.
The new Casio watches offer a rotating bezel for recording of basic compass bearings, and a large measurement button that can be easily operated even when wearing gloves. They deliver a high level of operability and practicality, including a special texture near the light button to make it easy to find in the dark. These outdoor watches can be used in a wide range of activities from mountain climbing, stream climbing, and rafting, to sea kayaking and fishing, where tide information is useful.
Equipped with Tough Solar technology, the new watches operate on solar power. The PRG-250 features a softer resin watchband for comfort, while the PRG-250T boasts a lightweight titanium watchband for a high-quality look. Click to visit our Casio online store
