Casio's CRW-001-1JR Ring Watch Will Release This Boxing Day
Timekeeping at your fingertips.
Update (December 19): The CRW-001 Ring Watch will officially launch in on December 26 with a confirmed retail price of $120 USD. For more information, visit Casio’s official webstore.
Original Story (November 18): As Casio’s 50th-anniversary celebrations continue, the brand has unveiled the CRW-001-1JR Ring Watch. Boasting a silhouette that appears to be a miniaturized rendition of G-SHOCK’s full-metal B2100 and B5000 series, the Ring Watch takes the concept of timekeeping at your fingertips to another level.
Using advanced MIM (Metal Injection Molding) technology, powdered metal is injected to create the complex shape of Casio watches in a full metal ring-sized design. The case, back cover and ring are molded as one piece using glass bonding technology to ensure an airtight build.
The Ring Watch is also waterproof for daily activities and can simultaneously display time across two different time zones. Its 7-segment LCD displays hours, minutes, seconds, dates, dual time and stopwatch functions. This is topped with a flashing light function that subtly illuminates your hand at a set time.
Powered by a small battery, this innovative timekeeper combines digital precision with compact convenience. Priced at￥19,800 JPY (approx. $128 USD), the CRW-001-1JR Ring Watch will be available via Casio from in December.
