No Neo-Fascist here buddy, no way! I just love Pink Floyd and i think this image and the prism of the Dark Side of The Moon are the most iconic Pink Floyd's images. That's it.

gmchris 68 Posted June 9, 2015 The Casio (sorry I mean rep Casio) finally landed today! Pros Well it was only 8 quid odd, and doesn't tick but does tell the time, stores phone numbers, calculates, 8 alarms, world time, timer and Stopwatc, weight is only 58g (like wearing a nato without a watch!) Cons Stopwatch doesn't work, inputting names goes right to left but does actually store, numbers are printed a bit dar, plastic stainless case may not last forever But did I mention it was only 8 quid?

wdev 0 Posted June 10, 2015 It's right there if you look for it And when he tried to get out, door latch mechanism is jammed. And by this I presume he means the driverside door, which you would expect in normal use Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
porschespeedster 19 Posted June 10, 2015 Haha, extremely cool Just had my 80's itch scratched a few weeks ago. Never did find my DeLorean again, though.... My neighbor has one.. right on the corner of where I live: Yeahhh Berlin in tha haus! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gmchris 68 Posted June 10, 2015 Got these in Argos for £20, really tempted. There's a thread on wus about these they've nicknamed it the "Casio Royale" as it looks a bit Bond Seiko ish. Some nice modded ones there too. . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By removing the lettering to give it a less cluttered look, or repainting the plastic inner bezel thingy, one guy even changed the screen colour with gel sheet and soldered blue leds instead of the standard backlight.

Replicawatch 34 Posted June 11, 2015 I think it looks awesome. Although I now would like a limited edition green Casio calculator watch. I was happy when I found the gen for $59, however, I was unsurprised when I realised you cant get them, even for a for a lot more. Dork cool is great in my opinion, totally into it!

trailboss99 994 Posted April 7, 2016 Haha, extremely cool Just had my 80's itch scratched a few weeks ago. Never did find my DeLorean again, though.... My neighbor has one.. right on the corner of where I live: There's one in the next village over. Kids (old and young) love these things, the only reason he can park it without attracting a crowd is that this is a small place and everyone has already drooled over it.
