The Casio digital ring watch, CRW-001-1ER, has now appeared on the brand's websites for both the UK and Singapore. This wearable was initially leaked in September, but it made its official debut earlier in November when the launch date for Japan was confirmed. This item is part of the brand's broader celebrations for its 50th anniversary and marks the company's first product of this type.
Design and Features
The design of the CRW-001-1ER shares some similarities with the GMW-B5000D-1 watch (curr. $432.99 at Amazon). This ring watch features an LCD screen shielded by durable mineral glass and a water-resistant stainless steel case with an adjustable strap. It boasts multiple features such as 12- and 24-hour time options, a daily alarm, an automatic calendar, and an LED backlight. Casio claims that the battery life for this ring is anticipated to last approximately two years.
Pricing and Availability
In the UK, the Casio CRW-001-1ER digital ring watch is tagged at £105 (~$132); however, the recommended retail price has not been disclosed for the similar item in Singapore. Both websites indicate that the wearable is "Coming Soon," yet the exact launch date remains unconfirmed. For reference, the device is expected to hit the market in Japan in December, with a suggested retail price of ¥19,800 (~$128).
