Description
Step back to 1976 with a timepiece that revives the charm of the world’s first multifunctional digital clock — the Casio CQ-1.

Each watch merges retro 1970s aesthetics with modern precision, featuring an eight-digit calculator, alarm, stopwatch, and LED digital display — wrapped in a sleek, nostalgic metal case.
