Casio Introduces New Models on Global Platform
Two new watches from Casio, the MRW-230H-1E4V and MRW-230H-2EV, have just officially appeared on the company’s international website, confirming earlier retail sightings. These watches previously made their appearances on retail listings through Bello, but now their presence on Casio’s main platform marks their official launch, which is quite exciting for lovers of affordable, rugged timepieces.
Design & Features
These watches are designed with a 47.9 × 44.6 × 12.3 mm case, which is pretty compact and designed to be lightweight at just 39 grams. The body of these watches is crafted from resin, complemented by an aluminum top ring on the rotating timer bezel. They are water resistant upto 100 meters, ensuring they are suitable for swimming, but not diving. They run on a dependable quartz movement with an accuracy of about ±20 seconds each month, equipped with an SR626SW battery that lasts for roughly three years.
Display & Straps
The display simple but effective: three analog hands along with a day-date window, protected by resin glass. They come with resin straps that can comfortably fit wrists from 145 mm to 215 mm. The simplicity and durability make them perfect for everyday wear without fuss.
Color Options & Variants
The key difference between the two models is in the aesthetic details. The MRW-230H-1E4V features a black dial with orange accents on the bezel and a matching seconds hand, giving it a bold look. Meanwhile, the MRW-230H-2EV comes with a blue dial and bezel with a yellow seconds hand, adding a splash of vibrant color to the lineup. Neither version boasts any hardware changes from previous models, only aesthetic differences which appeal to various style preferences.
Market Availability & Pricing
Launched earlier in 2025, the MRW-230H series has a similar design language across all variants. The new models expand the spectrum of color options without altering any technical specifications. These watches were previously listed with prices somewhere around the $50-$60 range in various regions, but the official website listing does not specify any pricing details. However, it confirms the model names and features across different markets, showing that Casio is planning a wide release for these watches.
