NEWS – If you prefer an old-school watch over a smartwatch, you need to check out these newly released watches from Casio. I had a beautiful Baby-G watch years ago with a translucent blue case and band, and the face featured an animated swimming dolphin. These Casio Baby-G Origin Series women’s watches don’t have the dolphin, but they do have the translucent colored band and case.
The BG169R-4E model is pink with red accents; the BG169R-2C is blue with coral accents. Both models have the following features:
- Shock resistant
- 200M water resistance

- 25pg Databank – memory capacity up to 25 sets of data, each set including: Name (8 characters) and telephone number (12 digits)
- World Time – 29 time zones (30 cities), city code display, daylight saving on/off
- Day Counter – automatically counts down the days from the current date to a target date for up to five records
- 5 daily alarms
- Hourly time signal
- 1/100 second stopwatch – measuring capacity: 23:59’59.99″ with measuring modes: Elapsed time, split time, 1st-2nd place times
- Countdown Timer – measuring unit: 1-second; input range of 1 minute to 24 hours (1-minute increments and 1-hour increments)
- Full Auto Calendar (pre-programmed until the year 2099)
- 12/24 Hour Formats
