Six digit, not six segment. Each digit has seven segments.

I've seen this a LOT lately, when did everyone forget what segments were?

The original announcement from Casio said they'd be making a ring version of the venerable DBC-611 calculator watch as well: https://www.g-central.com/casio-to-release-casio-watch-ring-...

It looks like they've instead made a ring version of the CA-53W, which - in the staggeringly few times I see someone wearing a calculator watch - is usually the one they're wearing.

I still wear a DBC-610 as my daily driver, and I do use the calculator and countdown timer features quite often.

Haha, I love it! I wear the gold calculator watch because it's fun and peculiar. I'd love to get a gold casio ring.

> The ring watch’s screen even has a light, and an alarm function that will flash the display instead of playing an audible sound

That is a bit... Underwhelming isn't it?

I hope they included the iconic worst-in-the-world backlight into it.

This feels like something you’d win at a carnival

It looks a bit silly but also a lot of fun!

What is this, a watch for ants?

Looks like a mini GMW-B5000D: https://www.casio.com/us/watches/gshock/product.GMW-B5000D-1...

OMG, put it on a chain and wear it around my neck!

That could actually be really useful. I'd love to wear a dumbwatch again, and if it's that much smaller then its that much better. Will be keeping an eye out for one that isn't nostaliga-themed.

A wrap around display ring would be cool.

Digital watches in general have their charm https://youtu.be/mDVmdgao3RE?si=sfpEEkri1mmOvdAV

Cool and functional. I hope this comes to Europe too.

This is the type of thing I would not purchase for myself, but I’m happy to see exist. Brilliant design.

Not for me but I love the idea.

In Japan. The price is high but I still like it.

gorilla glass i hope, otherwise its scratch city for my clumsy hands

No....nope. Don't like it. Why would someone spend $128 for that?

hillarious
