Important Notes
This watch is not discontinued by the manufacturer and remains in active production, ensuring ongoing availability for new buyers. It requires one lithium metal battery, which is standard for quartz-powered digital timepieces and typically offers several years of service before replacement is needed. For specific warranty information, customers should refer to the official Casio support resources. The product is shipped in its original Casio box, which helps verify authenticity and protects the watch during delivery. While the watch is designed for daily wear, it is not intended for use in water-intensive activities due to its 3 ATM rating. To preserve its condition, avoid exposing the watch to extreme heat, cold, or strong impacts, which could affect the digital components or structural integrity over time.
