Vintage AQ-230EM-2AEF Watch

The Watch

The Casio Vintage watch model AQ-230EM-2AEF stands out with its retro flair and timeless elegance. It features a rectangular resin case measuring 38.80 mm in length and 27.80 mm in width, with an impressively slim thickness of just 8.10 mm. This unisex timepiece weighs a featherlight 44 grams, making it a pleasure to wear all day long. The case is built to withstand the rigors of daily life while delivering a polished finish thanks to its snap-fit caseback. The watch is protected by an acrylic crystal, offering excellent clarity to showcase the luxurious dial.

The Dial

The dial is an instant focal point thanks to its sunburst finish that instantly draws the eye. Its refined blue tone creates beautiful plays of light as it catches the surrounding reflections. The analog hands, working in perfect harmony with the digital display, deliver precise readings of the hour, minutes, and seconds, while the indices are subtly highlighted against the deep blue background. But this dial goes beyond aesthetics - it also integrates a complete calendar displaying the day, date, and even the month.

The Functions

▪ The second time zone lets you display the time of another region simultaneously - ideal for travel or international calls.
▪ The 1/100 s - 1-hour stopwatch measures elapsed time with precision down to one hundredth of a second.
▪ The daily alarm reminds you of an event or appointment at your chosen time every day.
▪ The auto calendar keeps the date accurate without any manual adjustments.
▪ The 12/24-hour format lets you choose between a classic AM/PM display or a 24-hour format.

The Movement

At its core, this model runs on a Japanese quartz movement - an industry standard for reliability and accuracy. This Casio-signed mechanism not only keeps time with unwavering precision but also integrates advanced features like a 1/100th-of-a-second stopwatch, ideal for sports timing or any activity demanding split-second accuracy. The mechanism is built to last, requiring a battery change only every three years - making it a smart, low-maintenance choice for those who want a high-performing timepiece without the hassle.

The Strap

The strap of this watch is crafted in stainless steel with a Milanese mesh finish, giving it an appearance that's both classic and sophisticated. Milanese mesh is celebrated for its comfort and flexibility, conforming naturally to the wrist for an effortless fit. For added convenience, it features an adjustable sliding buckle closure, allowing you to fine-tune the fit to your exact wrist size.

Water Resistance

While this model isn't designed for intense water activities, it still offers solid water resistance rated at 3 ATM - protection equivalent to 30 meters underwater. This means the watch handles everyday splashes and unexpected rain showers with ease. It can also withstand humidity in an office environment or a light walk in the rain. Swimming and diving, however, are not recommended.
