Calculator watch on both wrists seems irresponsible - you could break the internet!
It was a reckless move I agree.
Nick Murray, nothing says like the other people thinks like calculater watch, the guy in a custom 911... 😛
Schwarzkopf'ing :)
@@NickMurray I have some casio models too... cfx200 included. if you want, you can find FancySoapShop in Etsy. its my store. The watch is in perfect working order.
The original smart watch. Pretty neat!
Gotta love Casio watch. Actually Casio digital watch are back in trend now.
I am wearing my ca851 now, i had it for christmas when i was about 12 years old , it was in the cuboard for about 30 years until i put some batteries in it and fired up without an issue, i think it has a bit of a star wars look to it, looks great with a black fine mesh strap, great video , cheers.
Dude, Im wearing one as I'm reading this!
A month ago I bought a watch for the first time (had few gifted before) - Casio F-91 W. The classic, basic, crazy affordable casio watch and I LOVE it. Retro looks, so light on the hand, thin so I don't bump into stuff with it anymore. Casio watches rock.
shrek
I just got my 1st calculator watch today it's the CA-53W model. I love this thing.
Saw this video when i started studying.
Now i am almost an engineer and i grabbed an cfx-200 in great condition for 250 dollars on eBay. I love it
Nick Murray - the Kiwi ArchieLuxury - just much less judgmental and with a true passion for what he chooses to publish. I'm always entertained.
ARCHIE LUXURY! CHEAP AND NASTY! legend tho JUST BUY THE ROLEX
nejjk: I agree Nejjk. Nick is always cool. His enthousiasm is contageous.
PHIST!
Everything that people like you hate about the ARCHIELUXURY channel is exactly what makes that channel great.
AC3!!!!
Do not, under any circumstance, apologize for loving Casio calculator watches! They were, still are, and always will be, flipping awesome. The best feature of all is the sound of vaginas drying up all around you as you walk by. No charge for that one by Casio, mind you... Strap 'em on and wear 'em proudly my kiwi friend!
I used to think you were a pretty cool guy. Now I think you're a very cool guy.
The data bank one is pretty sweet! You're making me nostalgic for the 80s and I wasn't even alive! Lol
Lol, I loved my calculator watch as a kid, driving around on my bike calling KITT.
Ha! I only owned one calculator watch but it came in handy during navigation school (USN) I wore it out. Now I'm a fanatic automatic watch collector. Yes, I have asked Nick what he was wearing before!
The databanks were incredibly useful in their day, they now have the charm and nostalgia of all redundant tech, (until the phone battery dies, when they beome incredibly useful once more!) still good looking pieces today. Indeed might well re invest in one. Cheers for the post/review.
Did you ever have the Casio wrist remote? I had so much fun when I was a kid with that walking into electronic stores or restaurants and changing the channels or turning off the tv. So many people thought their TVs were breaking it was hilarious.
I never had that one but my friends did : )
Yes, I had one and did that too! It was especially hilarious doing that at school while watching crappy education videos or whatnot
The best was the Casio calculator watch that could be programmed as a remote control for a TV and VCR. When I was in grade school and the teacher would play a movie, we'd constantly mess with the VCR; fast forward, slow mo, rewind, pause... Teacher had the IT guy swap out the VCR. Imagine her surprise when it kept happening :)
Tissot actually make some very good watches and the brand has a great history. The watch, nor the car, nor any other material thing makes the man. If that was the case, you wouldn't have the sort of subscriber base you've got. So it must be down to your personality.......that's the Rolex you possess.
CA-851! That is the watch I have been looking for! Now the hunt begins..
These were the first "smartwatches". They were ahead of their time.
BTW, the pic of you with the full-on nerd outfit early in the video was priceless. Seeing that made my day complete.
I'm SOLD on the Tissot Touch (being an aviator an' all!) but your proficiency with the "number attack" leaves me in complete awe!! I can see where your many idle hours have been spent. The fanciest watch I ever had was the Citizen Wingman, complete with flight circular slide rule around the bezel. Not sure about that tie - a bit too Spandau Ballet for even me!
I have skills!
Hi Nick, CFX is a great watch, congrats.
We have some common taste :)

“Ladies form an orderly queue” hahaha! I’m a lady and I love my nerdy Casio 80s data bank Watch
I’ve had my ca53w calculator watch for roughly a year now and it’s absolutely amazing
0:43 a black leather TIE sounds like that would be dope as hell. 😯
That's a glorious and rare DBC 600G or original 80's DBC 610G. You lucky bastard. I bought mine in 1984 for $350 and loved it to death for years. I so wish I had kept it.
Nicks watch reviews, we need more hahaha
I CANNOT tell you how many times I sat in engineering review meetings back in the 80's when I worked at a computer company, named after a fruit, and numerous people's watches would sound-off beeping at the top of the hour... Except for those few who were off by a few seconds or so. It was funny to see who's watch was off, then we'd all laugh questioning their technical abilities. Yea, real funny stuff... Oh yea, I still have mine. lol!
I love that Tissot watch. Also, I just have to tell someone I just bought the ultra rare CA-503 a couple of hours ago, and you’re it! New condition. More money spent on it than I care to admit to. And now I’m trying to maintain control to refrain from buying an expensive old pre-production prototype swatch.
I wear the gold data bank the most, Casio needs to step there game up and make a REAL gold version of that watch. I would buy that shit. 🙌🏼
I had one! It held phone numbers, alongside reminder calendar!
24 buttons, should have called it first gen Panamera
as an engineer i really appreciate this video- well done Nick- no where else on you tube can you find this topic
I wear a Rolex Yachtmaster 2 and i love it but i remember those calculator watches, i must get one !
1:23 No, this is a Digital Electronic Watch with an Analog display
The Game 851 is awesome. Never could get one at an affordable price
EPIC watches
Great that you kept all your old watches and in good condition too
The other day I was looking at the Databank DBC150! Oh the nostalgia :)
I had a Data Bank watch in 1984. I drove 60 miles to get at a Sharper Image in Denver Colorado. What a great watch! I got so much grief for it but I did't care! It was awesome.
Great stuff Nick!! Always liked these in a really odd sort of way, can't remember the model I had but most from our generation have been through one or two of these hideous things!!
Wha--what IS THAT?
The CA-851?
....never even HEARD of that.
Crazy....
I am 17 and I got a new databank and love it and the confused looks I get and little kids asking me If I use it to cheat on maths tests.
I came to see the old gold calculator casio watch and then he she one from the future 1st
Casio did it right with watches in the 1980's. : )
I love casio products, great video, great company.
I have a Casio cmd-40 that my father gave me as a birthday present in 2002, it has remote controller and calculator, I had a lot of fun turning tv's and vcrs off wherever I went, specially in school. Girls didn't like it.
not that flashy? dude that is the coolest watch ive ever seen. id honestly love to buy that over something flashy
thats something a hipster would say
Watching this video in 2020. I just bought the DBC-32 and I love it. I have about 12 Casio watches. Yes I might have a problem. Haha!
I just got a cfx 200 it has been my dream watch for a while I think my next one will be a databank with a secret mode
Today I found out that calculator watches exists and are quite boring as a topic of conversation. Very enlightening Nick xD
My coolest watch was the - Pulsar P2 watch James Bond Live and Let Die 1972 - I was 10 and sooooo cool.
That brought back some memories. I had a black one and I loved it!
I had the same watch the data bank DBC 610 but in black. My mate bought a radio watch from Argos it was yellow & cost £13 back in the day
I love Casio because they make stuff that works and lasts.
I loved that game and won a lots of money at school in competitions with it.
Great video ,, I have a dbc611e presume it’s from the 80s cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧 ,, I did have one when I was 18, ,,1982 thanks
Casio scientific calculator watch = instantaneous PhD in physics and math. It’s a fact.
Love my Breitling Emergency super quartz! so cool having a elt on ur wrist! i wish i kept my old calc watch!
Wow, awesome collection Nick!
Nice retro calculator watch, Nick
I miss the 1980's. I use Casio calculator watch in the year 2020. Casio digital watches are very good.
Very impressive colection. Congrats!
I wore the black plastic Casio calculator watch when I was a kid, I wasn't fancy like you with the gold one, HA HA. A few years ago I bought another one and it is sitting there new in the case in my closet, just as a piece of nostalgia. I moved onto the G-Shocks later on in my teenage years because I surfed and skated; fast forward years later and I own/owned lots of different high-end brands and I now wear the Apple Watch, even though I kind of hate it, it does have its uses. If I was to go back to a traditional watch it would be my Breitling or perhaps get a Bell & Ross. I also want to spend a ludicrous amount of money one day and buy a Lange.
This video is so cool! Brings back memories....
I knew this watch video was coming.
I need that game watch
I had an original Black model. Wish I'd kept it like you did.
I bought my Data Bank around 1988, by 1994 the rubber keyboard had degraded into soft black goo.
Great video!
Did you figure out how to change the battery on the DBC-610? I have no one in my area that knows how do replace the battery.
I used to have the same watch like the gold one but in black.
I currently wear the casio f-91w
Hey Nick I'm also a connoisseur of fine brands in both style and luxuriousness.....Porsche, Mercedes, Louis Vitton, Casio, Ralph Lauren, Sanyo, Service Merchandise, etc etc...the list goes on..... Nothing but the best will do. (Mike in Ohio)
I still have 4 of these in mint condition. No I dont wear them, but someday they might be valueable
You need to be on "Talking watches" with Hodinkee hahaha
My brother had a touch screen calc watch that stopped working when you scratched the screen. Considering how easy it is to scratch the screen ...
I'd rather wear a calculator watch then walk around and be seen with one of those huge iphones.
Any Seiko calculator watches?
Cool video Nick
As an electrical engineering student I really like that scientific calculator watch.
They actually become super popular with hipsters these days. I had one too, luckily for me I got bored with it quickly 😁
Always want one they still tuff
Loved these things when I was a kid. These days they remind of Dwight from The Office.
Good that they are still around. I picked one up at Walmart for 20 dollars.
I had a couple of these as a kid... And I also have a Tissot Touch. And I'm watching Nick's video in the middle of day. Yep, I'm a loser... Although I probably have a little way to go until I'm at Nick's loser level, he has a shirt to prove it! Have any in my size in stock?
I had one when I was a kid
I have a Data Bank but the new version, they are awesome and look the same!
the goal one is the shit, so cool
More importantly, what watches do William and Albert own?
I just wish I could find an RPN watch calculator for peak nerdiness.
Wow.....that Scientific Calculator Watch is SUPER rare....your is only the second time I've seen it on a video.
(How the hell did u not get any SCRATCHES on the crystal?!)
The casio cd40 which is the first data bank watch shares the same case as the casio cfx-200 scientific calculator watch. It has the same amount of buttons appropriately 24 buttons
any reason you’re not fascinated with vintage mechanic or even quartz swiss watches?
Yes...they cool
You should add a Seiko Astron GPS watch to your collection. Accurate time wherever you are using GPS signals.
Rick Springfield of the early 80s got nothing on you...Wow! You were way ahead of your "time" period Nick! I like a man who can refurbish a Marantz receiver!
Can the battery of those smartwatch last 1 day? :D
5:42. Wow. Seconds of fun...
Call of Duty has nothing on this
I myself own about 7 Calculator watches. I'd buy more, but I can't fit anymore watch cases in my room. I have pretty much all the available "modern" ones from Amazon and I own 3 older DBC's from the 80's/90's. I definitely would like to own a CFX-200. Even though I'm not a math guy, I'd love to add this particular one to my collection one day. Cheapest ones I've seen on eBay go for about $500 bucks. One day, I'll get it in my collection.
I almost got a DBC 610 at one point. I did not know it had a security feature. Wish my DBC 150's and 810 had that.
Other than that, cool calculators, dude. Nerd on! 🤓🤓🤓
Saw this Video 3 years ago when i started studying. Now i'm almost an engineer and i grabbed a cfx-200 on ebay for 250 bucks a few days ago. Best deal i've done in a while
That's so cool, I didn't know they could do all that! I should pick one up to deliver the knock-out punch to people I talk to when they see my slide out keyboard phone! :P But hey, a 670 hp car doesn't come cheap, so you have to make some sacrifices!
Nick what would purchase that is out today ? Great vlog cheers
