Casio Releases New Shock-resistant Baby-G Watches
Featuring a Big, Open Watch Face for Women with an Unpretentious Style

BASEL, March 7, 2012 — Casio Computer Co., Ltd., announced today the latest additions to its Baby-G line of shock-resistant watches for women. The new BGA-150 and BGA-151 models introduce a simple yet stylish design with a generously sized, eye-popping watch face.

The two new watches feature a fashionably big face for a standout presence on the wrist. Metal is used around the glass and on a portion of the multi-layered bezel to emphasize the high-quality look. The bezel is accentuated with parts that look like screws, in order to emphasize Baby-G toughness. Casio extended the bold, unpretentious design to the large indexes and hands to complement the big, open watch face. The watches also feature three LCD windows on the dial that show the day of the week, seconds, and mode. The watchband is made from light resin, and accented with a textured design that mimics the look of a metal watchband. This simple yet stylish design never grows old, and the large face is the perfect complement to the whole gamut of today’s fashion looks, from casual to high fashion.

The new Baby-G watches also offer the usual full range of functions including stopwatch, alarm, and world time, as well as shock resistance and water resistance up to 100 meters.
