Casio is a multinational electronic devices manufacturing company founded in 1946, with its headquarters in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. Throughout its history, Casio has done some rather exciting things. Here are some of them:
In 1957 Casio released the
world's first entirely electric compact calculator. In 1974 The Casiotron was launched (one of our favourite Casio product names!), a watch that featured a fully automatic calendar. In 1980, Casio released its first keyboard - the Casiotone, leading to a boom in musical instruments for the home. In 1983, the first G-Shock watch, the DW-5000C, was born. In 1995, Casio launched the world's first modern digital camera - the QV-10. Finally, in 2007, the OCW-S1000J, dubbed the Oceanus "Manta", is released, becoming the world's thinnest solar-powered watch at just 8.9 mm thick!
