In 1946 Kashio Seisakujo, a Japanese engineer founded the Casio Computer Co. Ltd in Tokyo. The company began by developing the calculator which was introduced to the world in 1954. With continuing improvements, the company created the iconic electronic office calculator for which the brand is famous for. Casio is also credited with creating the digital camera in the 1980s and electronic musical instruments in the 1990s. It is perhaps the reason why Casio is such a recognised brand – we have been seeing it around us for several decades.
Coming to the origins of Casio watches, the brand’s foray into the watch market came in 1974 with the introduction of the Casiotron, a digital quartz watch. In April 1983, Casio gave the world its first shock resistant wristwatch, the G-Shock. Casio’s G-Shock collection is perhaps the most popular, particularly amongst military men, sports enthusiasts and adventurers who love the toughness and durability the G-shock offers. The Casio G-shock has been labelled ” the toughest watch of all time” and “the watch that never breaks”.
After 11 years, in 1994,Casiocame out with the Baby-G series of watches for women. Watches from the Baby-G series are also quite popular with the general public and some famous personalities as well. There are a few good reasons why you should have a Casio watch in your collection. Firstly, almost all Casio watches are inexpensive. Starting from as little as $10, there is a Casio watch for every budget. Incidentally, the most expensive Casio model has a price tag upwards of $2000.
Casio watches are quality Japanese timepieces built using the best materials and therefore durable and accurate. There is never any compromise on the quality of a Casio watch despite the low price tag. For the consumer it is a win-win situation – a durable, quality watch that is pocket-friendly and looks great too. In a nutshell, the reasons to own Casio watches are that they are durable, reliable, affordable and fashionable.
When I think of Casio watches, the image that comes to mind is that of a chunky and bulky wristwatch. However, there are a sizable number of Casio watches that have clean and elegant lines, and I was pleasantly surprised to find some really elegant Casio timepieces lined up here athttps://www.downunderwatches.com, the Australian online watch store. The Casio Analog Quartz MTP Series or the Casio Enticer Watch series for Women offer some beautiful and elegant designs for folks looking for classic timepieces.
Casio watches are among the toughest and most durable watches with many high-tech features that you would rarely find in one single timepiece. And, without doubt they are a steal at the price tag making them well worth the cost and a must have accessory in your collection.
I would highly recommend Downunder watches. The first watch I bought from them wasn’t Waterproof but this was my mistake. It was an easy return and I got my money back and purchased a new one from them.. it’s a fantastic Seiko watch. They are a great company to deal with and the price was more than $200 cheaper than a shop.

Japanese Quality and Precision at an outstanding price
I have always loved the mechanical beauty of an Automatic movement, but I cannot afford an Omega or Rolex, so I have had to look at budget-friendly alternatives. Seiko automatic watches are solid, well-constructed and in my view, keep time just as well as those 20 - 50K Swiss movements. Therefore, I was excited to see the Seiko 5 Sports selling for just under $300.00 - normally close to $500. I love the minimalist functional design with the high-visibility face. Downunder Watches were efficient and expedient in posting the watch to me, and the complete sales experience was outstanding. Upon receiving the Seiko 5 Sports, I was most pleased with its solid weight and construction, which will last me many years and is a nice daily wear alongside my other Seiko Presage. Thanks Seiko and thanks Down Under Watches.

Great watch
Really happy with service from DownUnderWatches - prompt response to my emails and correct information - will definitely recommend them.
The watch is great - love love love the colour! Its is quite vibrant (not washed out like in the pictures here). Easy to program with the instructions. My only issue is that i need my reading glasses on to read the small stuff! That was something i did not consider before purchasing. My daughter has the matching watch in black and it looks fab also.
Hi Alison,
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're really happy to hear that you’re pleased with both the service and the watch. It’s great to know that the color exceeded your expectations, and we’re glad the instructions made setup easy. We completely understand about the small text and hope that doesn’t take away from your overall enjoyment. Thanks again for sharing your experience with us, and we appreciate your recommendation!
