I’ve never heard of or seen this model before. Thanks for sharing it and thanks to Simon. Congratulations!
Simon is the star of the show in this one. Great find and it took some time, thanks for gifting Russel this watch as we now see its features and some other things that we don't know about.
Saw this last night and watched it again this morning with a coffee.
Russ your true joy comes out in this one, it's palpable and infectious.
Hats off to Simon for making it possible.
Thank you so much my friend!
Congrats! It brings me joy to see someone get joy from such a simple yet rare watch. Anyone doesn’t think tennis is a tough sport, you’re not playing it correctly…
I continue to be entertained and educated watching your channel. I love you continuous enthusiasm you provide in all your episodes!!
John! That means everything to me!
Tennis! I am also a Tennis coach (just had one of my pupils be a sparring and practice/war-up partner of Alcaraz, Sinner, Rune, Medvedev, Raducanu and other pros at the Indian Wells this year) and since I'm here, you know I'm a watch enthusiast as well!
Tennis and Watches go hand in hand. Or rather, watch on wrist.
Casio TennisCounter is perfect for you... Nice watch !! Casio have to bring this watch back with Mad Watch that would be so cool.
C'mon CASIO!! Let's make a new adult sized version of this and add a countdown timer.
Also, give this awesome man a collaboration!!
I’ve paid m’dues!!!
A TMWC grass court Green limited edition...😅😅
You are definitely excited about this awesome watch! What a great gift to receive.
Very lucky Lance!!!! Thanks for watching!
Okay, that is super cool. Not a tennis player, but can appreciate how neat that is!
4 vids from Russ in a week. 👏 We’re being spoiled 😂🎉
A cracking watch Russ, that citrus fruit colour makes me want to get one and go on a very exotic holiday, unfortunately I can't justify either. Anyway a great review and congrats with the purchase. I'm in the dog house again after visiting family over Easter and popping into F&G.
I was addicted to the numbers scroll game on my Casio calculator watch. ah the memories 🤓
One of a kind video on the watch-youtube.
The colours, and shapes... DAZZLING!
Happy for you, and I again felt that long lost sensation of finding out about a new watch, that is truly unique, and is a CASIO!
SUPER!
Thank you my friend!
Just perfect Russell
Cheers Russell
This is SO you Russ. Kind of reminds me of the original Nintendo "Game and Watch" LCD games ❤
I am so glad that you're actually going to use that watch! That is amazing, so glad you got it.
Thank you Simon. What a beautiful watch!
That is very cool! Never seen that before with the tennis point recorder.
Simon is a legend🎉
100%
When you push the light button, John McEnroe yells at you! 🤣 That's awesome Russ, love seeing vintage Casios. Lovely gesture from Simon! Congrats matey!
For some reason my imagination pondered what it would be like if you did car reviews. Wild Joey Chitwood-style antics, burning rubber, blown head gaskets, and a demolition derby for all the cars you didn't like. Until then, these watch reviews perk up my day!!
I’m up for it!!!!
Awesome ! Congratulations !
What a cool watch! Never seen it before, absolutely love the specific application of it. Brilliant video as usual buddy.
Did not see that. A tennis instructor. Never in a million years. But you are an awesome watch reviewer 😮
Thank you my friend!
What a PERFECT watch for you! 🤩👌 Surprised to hear that this cool, and specific model made in the 80's!
Simon knew who is the right person to own that nice watch.
To paraphrase the wife "you cannot be serious"... Grail box ticked
Cool! Congratulations!
Congrats! Well done Simon!!
That's a peach, definitely a keeper.
This is my Man, thank you very much sharing nice review again
Wow Russ, that is terrific. "40-LOVE"! 🙂
Hahahahaha
That's a vintage beauty 😮. I love me a NOS Casio, just gotta be careful with the straps 😅
It looked small on the close-up, but on the outdoor wrist roll it looks fine, genuinely, I was surprised. Looks flippin fantastic. I... LOVE it.
Stoked for you Russ. Overall a very positive review from Mrs. MWC. And that color would be allowed when you play at Wimbledon, right?
Aww I had one of those Casio football timers, nice to see it briefly there. I think I bought it about 20 years ago? I told the shop assistant it was for one of my nephews. I was probably wearing a Rolex at the time and felt a bit embarrassed about buying a Casio.
found the watch snob.
Casio retro watches are always awesome
Russ, your effervescent personality cheers me up no end mate, I just lost my wife to a burst appendix last Saturday and your channel has been a great help in my time of grieving. I know this is not the place to mention this so forgive me please. We don't come just for the watches I'm sure. You are a special person, one of kind, and unique so keep making these videos, and I loved the one where you were out in the country side on that new watch release.
Thanks and regards from Kev in New Zealand
I am so sorry for your loss...I too, lost my wife in 2019 so I know exactly how it feels... I restarted my watch collection hobby that I stopped 23 years ago after I met my wife because I dont want her to worry over me spending on watches. I was given an advice on starting a new hobby to help fight my depression... I hope things will get better for you (it will), you will need some time. Take care my friend.
@@MrFredrictaiThank you both for sharing your stories. May God bless each of you!
I am so sorry Kev. I am so sorry for your loss.
Kev! From my family to yours my friend ! So sorry for your loss. If I can bring any light into your world JOB DONE! Thank you for finding this little channel and I’m so glad you’ve kept watching!!!! Ps I maybe out in the country again soon;)
Thank you for your kind words and condolences on losing your wife.@@MrFredrictai
Simon’s a nice man ❤
I got into Casio a few months ago. I bought 3 in just 5 months. This one is nice and has a unique function or intended purpose. You deserved that watch.🙂
Loving that mini tennis court pic between the right-side pushers.
One of the coolest watches I’ve ever seen!
Congrats on getting your grail watch 😉
I'm envious... lovely little watch
A CZcams first, Russ! Casio has to be the coolest company out there.
Beautiful combination of colors.
Great show and watch!
ACE review, that watch is a great ADVANTAGE, LOVE it!
I love it. I miss these old oddball Casios. I can't remember the reference but I want the one where there's a gauge where water actually enters the watch to determine your depth. That's the most Casio thing ever.
DW-220DG?
@@witness00fleming I think so! Thank you it was completely escaping me.
That looks crisp. Happy you finally got to add it your collection
Thank you my friend!
Awesome gift! There's one on eBay for £392
Very cool! I just picked up a JDM G-Steel. Not nearly as rare as that, but I’m pretty stoked… it’s a B600S-1AJF. Great weekender for the summer!
Superb my friend!!
I played tennis all through high school and I am now 39 years old and still play to this day. I NEED this watch!
For the ultimate retro Casio, you should get ahold of a Melody Alarm watch from the early 1980s.
That’s a Biff & Buffy watch to be worn at the Oak Hill Country Club P.S. Picked up a F91W a few minutes ago for $16.88. Candy Apple Green. I’ll be wearing it exclusively to ride my Mountain Bikes like a bat out of hell in Virginia and West Texas!
Congratulations on getting the watch of your dreams I can vegley remember seeing it when it was out I am lucky and was around when digital watches were first introduced one of are friends bought one of the first LED ones I cannot remember the make but it looked good back then but we all went off when he was put a new battery in every month the LCD changed the world I got a muscle one but it drove every one made when the alarm went off I wish I had kept them now
You lucky git :P
And congrats for getting it, Simon seems an awesome guy!
Because of the blue and red lines around it, it kinda looks like a Tron watch as well.
Also I never thought I'd hear you say "it is a bit small" wtf Russell are you mental it can never be small enough, as long as you can press the pushers. Push the pressers. Ok it's a bit small.
Where can we get that Casio case you showed off at the beginning of the video?? Super cool.
Wow, first time seeing this! So cool!
Amazing timepiece!!
The o in counter looks like a power switch.. and when my brain passed over and ignored it, well, the name of the watch changed and it looks like…well something more “adult” lololol
W-48B has blue plastic pushers too😊
Pretty killer....tho I had casio game watch as a kid "Aerobatics" it was school yard grail watch.....went to relive 80s for collection...wow! $$$$$$
You're right that is so cool and they need to re-release it in full size square. That scorekeeper pieces still sweet decades later
So HAPPY 4 U Mate
Nice! I play ten pin bowling. I wonder if Casio do a watch for that?!
Almost like it was made for you! Fantastic
I'm happy for you!!
Congrats mate she's a beauty
Another great show. Who'd have thought watches could be so entertaining? Click iiiiiiiit ! 😂
Hi Russell, if in correct this was purchased of my mate alex from ebay. Congratulations
Oooooh!😮❤........
Not really my style.. but...I'm just Happy for you...😂
Thank you Mr M!
Love it! Wear it in good health.
My goodness- looking at that LW-70T transports me back to the Late 80’s era. I noticed everything had a bright, colourful futuristic style which led to the nineties Sonic the Hedgehog era 💙🩵
bro.....absolutely UNREEEEAL!!
Looks great!
My first digital in 1980 played the ‘yellow rose of Texas’ but can’t recall if it was a Casio or seiko??? Or maybe a Zetron?
now that's a watch you flex at a watch meet, very cool
So cool, im not a huge tennis fan but that just screams 80s and that way my childhood 😊👌
Awesome little watch.
Awesome invention from the 80s!
Awesome watch! Does anyone know where I can find a Casio running watch with the digital running man? I had one as a kid and would love to have one now.
Looking forward to the release of the Casio MWC-70T Tennis Counter
Never ever even held a tennis racket, but that was cool. What a decade the 80ies were 👍
I'm very happy for you that you found ultimate grail watch finaly after... how many years?
I recently found my grail watch. It's a 1984 Seiko H556-5029 and it's in pretty good condition for a 40 year old watch. :)
Superb my friend!
@@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR Yes. I remember seeing that Seiko as a young boy in a mail order magazine in 1987 or so. It was too expensive for me so I coulnd't have it or course. I never forgot about it and I didn't even know what brand and type it was. Untill recently. Whenever I looked for a watch, it had to look alike this H556-5029, but I never found one... untill now! :)
@@THEMADWATCHCOLLECTOR Funny thing is also, that when I first saw it that I also thought that it's a lot smaller than I expected it to be. Of course, it has an advantage too, the whole stainless steel case and bracelet weighs only 75 grams. It's like wearing a titanium watch. :)
Shout out to Simon! What an awesome and generous gift!
Truly feel that
Have you seen the new G-Steel GST-B600D-1ADR? I think this line is going to be a big seller. A new classic perhaps.
Thought you're gonna talk about the Casio Beside series.
That is a gorgeous and very nifty watch. It'd look like a Tic Tac on my big ol wrist. But it is an awesome watch.
Absolutely!!;)
As a tennis fan, this is the coolest watch I've seen hands down.
Im not massive on tennis but as this is an exckusive feature it is an epic addition to anyone collection for sure
Awesome watch! Unfortunately, if they did a re-issue it would be so special anymore🥺👍
Nice watch and it is indeed age well. Casio model number seems to indicate this is a ladies watch.
Does that matter?
Just curious if Casio made a ladies series, had they consider another model for men?
I can’t play tennis anymore without this watch!
Hahahahahaha
It's amazing! Now I want one 😊
The watch reminds me of a space Lego set I had in the late 1980s.
6:20 HA!!!!
Hey,
I really enjoy watching your videos, even if some of them are too wild and funky for me. 😅
Thanks for your work.
Here's my question:
Why haven't you made a video about the GD-350 yet? I use and love this watch because of its beefy appearance and powerful functions. The OneClick timer, the bright illumination of the dial, the large time display and the alarm clock with five modes are impressive. But there is still one unique selling point:
I think it's the only G-Watch that has a vibrating alarm and has been spared from silly smart functions.
That's the reason why I wanted it. I often sleep on the train on my way to university or work, but I don't want a loud alarm on my watch or smartphone as I find it rude to disturb my fellow travelers. What could be better than a vibrating alarm? Snooze mode if needed.
Are there any more Casio watches like this? Apart from the "W-735H - W-736H"? Why don't you make a video about it?
Best regards from Felix in Germany!
I am searching for the old Casio melody alarm watch, that is my grail one!
