Casio was established as Kashio Seisakujo in April 1946 by Tadao Kashio [] (1917–1993), an engineer specializing in fabrication technology. [1] Kashio's first major product was the yubiwa pipe, a finger ring that would hold a cigarette, allowing the wearer to smoke the cigarette down to its nub while also leaving the wearer's hands free.

Edifice watches range from basic chronograph to more advanced models with more computerised movements. Many Edifice watches utilise Tough Solar, Casio's brand name for solar powered batteries. More advanced models are "Waveceptors" which can calibrate themselves with atomic clocks via radio waves. Some models have Bluetooth connectivity which ...
A Casio G-Shock GW-9200J "Riseman" watch incorporating Multi-band 6 technology. Casio Multi-Band 6 watches can tune to any of the six signals of the low frequency radio time signals.

A Casio solar-powered watch, manufactured no later than 2009. Typically, sunlight and artificial light are absorbed by a solar panel behind the crystal. The dial is either on a layer above or actually on the solar panel. This solar panel converts the light into electrical energy to power the watch.
The next 3 decades saw the development of quartz clocks as precision time standards in laboratory settings; the bulky delicate counting electronics, built with vacuum tubes, limited their use elsewhere. In 1932 a quartz clock was able to measure tiny variations in the rotation rate of the Earth over periods as short as a few weeks. [39]
Indiglo backlights typically emit a distinct greenish-blue color and evenly light the entire display or dial. Certain Indiglo models, e.g., Timex Datalink USB, use a negative liquid-crystal display so that only the digits are illuminated, rather than the entire display.
