Casio MQA-100G (Module 333) Re-case 18/3/2023 Hello Casio watch enthusiasts from around the world, I hope you are all well! Back in February, I wrote a post about a rare watch I had bought second hand from an auction site. The watch is an MQA-100G and in the add it said the watch only needed a new battery. I placed a bid of £10 and luckily won the watch. The next images are from the actual advert.   and and and The watch looked very grubby, yet I could see no actual scratches on the glass, case or strap and I thought I would take a little gamble. As I said, I won the watch for £10 (plus £3.65 delivery) and I ordered a battery immediately. A couple of days later, the watch arrived and also the new battery I had ordered. Happy days I thought. So, as soon as I had time, I removed the strap and removed the case back.  I then removed the old battery and all my hopes dreams of a rare and cheap Casio were shattered. The old battery must have been in there a long time and it had leaked so badl

Casio Watches I Would Love to Own Hello Casio owners and lovers from around the world. I hope you are all well. 12/4/2023 As the title suggest, this is a list of Casio watches I would love to add to my humble collection. Some are vintage watches, whilst some of them may be recent.

I am also unsure of the year each watch was released and the cost of the said watch at that time. I do have some information about the watches, however this could prove to be inaccurate.

 Casio MQA-100G  3/2/2023 Hello Casio enthusiasts from around the World. I hope you are all well. The watch above is an old Casio MQA-100G, from the mid to late 1980's. It is identified as an analogue and digital watch. The watch above is the actual watch I bought at auction tonight. I took a gamble on this watch, as it is not running and "only" requires a battery. It should arrive next week. I have hope the watch can be revived, to some of it's former glory and I look forward to working on it. As soon as it arrives, I will update you on the condition of the watch. I am trying to find a new battery to check the function of the watch. The battery arrived shortly after I wrote this post and unfortunately the watch did not work. After closer inspection, I found that the old battery had leaked into the watch causing substantial damage. The leaked acid had travelled quite a distance in the watch destroying various components along the way.  The main PCB (printed circuit bo
