Casio Databank Review

The Casio Databank has been in geek culture since the early 1980's. The first model, the CA53W, was the first watch to be made, offering dual-time, a stopwatch, an alarm, and a calculator. Later models, such as the CA56, offer databank functions that can store emails, phone numbers, and addresses. The first model is the most well known, as it has made many debuts in movies. For example, in the movie Back to the Future, Marty McFly wears one.

The calculator function was the featured function of the Databank. It allowed you to have a calculator on your wrist for quick and easy access, which, at the time, was a big deal, since calculators were big and inconvenient. The other features, such as the dual-time feature and stop watch, also work well and are very convenient.

This watch is very light and comfortable. It doesn't feel cheap either, and is very durable.

However, it does have a few small problems. The buttons on it are very small, and it is easy to accidentally press the wrong number when using the calculator. Also, in order to change the time on it, you have to press a small side-button with your fingernail. It can be extremely hard to press at times, which is frustrating.

The price of the CA53W is very good. You can get this model for $15-$25. The other models can go from $15-$100.

I recommend this watch to anyone who does math frequently and needs a calculator handy at all times.
