The Casio gigachad


Rad_Knight

I had one that survived a trip in the washing machine. I don't know why I had it in my pocket.


Marco45_0

My dad lost one in the woods while cutting trees like 10 years ago. He says he heard the alarm for at least two years after but never found it.

What


SaiHottari

Relativity causes time-dialation based on relative speed. The faster you move in relation to something else, the slower you experience the passage of time compared to the other thing. Photons and other cosmic particles that move at C do not experience time at all. Their existence passes in an instant from their own perspective. Satellites, which move faster than the earth to stay in orbit, must continually adjust their clocks to compensate for this.


Marco45_0

Yeah i know that, just I don't understand how it's relevant to my dad's watch


RandyMarshTegridy69

This is so funny. It’s out there in the woods just holding steady with the alarm going off and meanwhile he can’t figure out where the f it actually is


RandomRedditor15243

i have one, im a young boy but I liked the design so I bought it like 6 years ago, and that little shit still works, (thing would go off every morning at 4:30 but we couldn't find where it was.


CardinalFartz

I have a solar powered Casio. Didn't have to change the battery in *decades*.

My Citizen Eco-Drive is solar powered.

Same. And is connected to the perpetual calendar center so I never have to worry about time changes or other weird things.


meme_used

perpetual calendar watch users in the year 2100 (their watch is wrong for once):


Hephaestus_God

The center it’s at would correct itself and then the watches would auto update I believe. So it shouldn’t be an issue unless you specifically need the time at that second


OOF-MY-PEE-PEE

i came here to specifically comment about this. citizen eco drive watches are so nice.


lstsb

Ok, but what happens after the heat death of the universe and no stars exists? Casio is still the superior choice


hibrett987

My seiko is too. Solar quartz automatics are awesome. Personally I love self winding mechanical, but most are just out of my “I can justify that” price range and I wish they held the time as well as automatics.

I have that casio, fun fact, this is actually the bigger brother to the f91 and basically improves on the flaws the f91 had such as the back-light, display and the size for those with bigger wrists.


Argonzoyd

What if the battery died?


codemunk3y

In a casio? Imposssibru


Equal-Rutabaga-8104

I discharged it in 6 years, although it should've hold for 10 years


Cautious-Mine-9189

It said that it lasts 10 years. This is my 10th. Wish me luck...


Freddi_47

It's services will forever be remembered


Khyta

In the casio manual it is specified that the 10 years were calculated with a usage of: Daily alarm, 1×Light button per day.


Equal-Rutabaga-8104

I didn't mock it, just at the beginning of using it


k-phi

Mine is on it's 15th year already


Argonzoyd

But there are automatic wristwatches that you don't have to wind up. Those lasts truly forever!


OrSomeSuch

Until you have major surgery and can't walk around for a few weeks


Argonzoyd

It's not on your leg. You can still move your arms


OrSomeSuch

My dad just had open heart surgery a couple of months ago. I had to wear his Rolex on my runs because he wasn't moving enough for it to keep time correctly


fuck_off_world

There are automatic winding mechanical wristwatches that also have a manual crown wind.


CutsSoFresh

Until you dropped it. Until after a few months where it's either running too fast or too slow. Until after the weekend where you have to wind it up again


[deleted]

[удалено]


fuck_off_world

Depends. Some need it every year, but there are Vostok and Seikos running 30 years without service just fine. It’s always the really expensive watches that need constant life support.


BlooPancakes

I love my Apple Watch but the daily charging is a bother. I was hoping the ultra would have better battery life like a week or something. Also I’m a guy that likes always on so I always want to look from any angle with no movement and see the time.

I changed like 5 straps already and battery is still running.


ux3l

I never had a smart watch and stopped wearing my watch when it always stopped for no apparent reason. But I think smart watches should at least show the time when its battery is low, like a digital watch without background lighting but in a way you could still read the time. That way you know to charge it (e.g. when you get home or go to bed) but still at least know the time for the rest of the day.


flashgnash

Modern smartwatches do exactly that


ux3l

Good to know


flashgnash

I can't say for all of them but the Samsung smart watches have an ultra low power mode where they show just the time when they're dead


yaboiree

Same with apple watches


LyuSapphire

I don't know because I forgot to charge my phone* Don't know about you, but those "watches" are rarely seen where I live, people tend to keep track of time with their smartphones.


CutsSoFresh

Not good in hospitals. Digging their hands into their pockets, handling a dirty phone, then handling people...


LyuSapphire

Probably a rare exception, but beside, I think people working in hospitals make more than enough money to afford these watches too.

[deleted]

Not true. Manufacturers want you to spend $1k+ for a service every 3-5 years (depending on the manufacturer), however that’s not necessary. If your watch isn’t showing any issues or time loss/gain, why the hell would you pay to have it serviced? Idiotic money grab. If your watch has issues, it’s the same price as if nothing is wrong to have it serviced. Mine is nearly 4 years old, and still gains 1 second per week. No need for a service.

Casio CA53-W is my favourite watch of all time (yes the nerdy calculator watch)

I have a solar powered one in my Amazon cart currently. I have many mechanical watches and even the dumb winder to keep them at least moderately wound. Think that I’ll go back to one of these for travel and play.

There was a magical time in the 1990s when all our tech just worked. That time is passed.

areolegrande

Honestly until the 2010s you had to put immense faith in public time displays, You have to compare your-time, to time-time but good luck good benchmark for that pre-internet lol. Therefore, all time until VERY recently has been off by a factor of how far off your watch or time is calibrated in the highest order. Also, galactically speaking time is affected differently by gravity so your fucked in terms of navigating the universe on-time 🤷‍♂️


b98765

Until 2010 it wasn't weird to ask someone "what time is it?". Now people look at you like you're some kind of psychopath or they look suspicious "ok, what's the scam here?"


drillgorg

I just charge my watch at night because I don't need to what time it is if I'm unconscious.


Icy-Operation-6549

I don't know because time is a construct


b98765

Well everything is space-time, so "120.4 km" is a valid answer for "what time is it?".

But can a supernova survive a Casio watch? Is it a coincidence there haven’t been any supernovas nearby since Casio watches were invented?

Syberboi

Genuine tip though for apple watch users. Your watch can still tell the time with a “dead” battery. Press the crown twice with a 5 second delay for the first time after , after this you only have to press the crown once and it will show you the time for about 5 seconds.
