In celebration of its 50th anniversary, the Casio watch brand introduces the TRN-50, a limited edition timepiece of the groundbreaking Casiotron– the brand’s first digital watch and the first timepiece with an automatic calendar introduced in 1974. The edition is limited to just 4,000 pieces worldwide.
While visually reminiscent of the original, the TRN-50, which is water resistant to 100 meters, boasts modern technological features. In addition to receiving time calibration signals from six stations worldwide, it functions as a solar radio-controlled watch with Mobile Link capability, allowing synchronization with smartphones via Bluetooth. Other features include world time indication, several alarms and countdown timers, and a 1/100-second chronograph.
While the logo on the blue dial faithfully replicates the original, the closed case back sports a new symbol in celebration of the anniversary. Like the original, the TRN-50 is attached to a metal bracelet.
Pricing for the Casio Casiotron is marked at $500.
