Casio made a tiny fully functional Ring Watch

A hand showing a silver ring on the index finger. The ring is identical to a miniature Casio digital watch.
Wearables are all the rage right now, with options from Samsung, Ultrahuman, and others offering every imaginable fitness tracking feature in the compact form factor of a ring. The Casio Ring Watch launched to celebrate the company’s 50th anniversary does none of those fancy fitness tracking duties and simply tells you the time. This was originally thought to be a Japan-exclusive, but a listing on Casio’s US website confirms model CRW001-1 is actually headed stateside.

Casio’s latest innovation is a complicated piece of tech using a miniature display and internals, powered by a simple coin cell battery that should last two years before needing replacement.

It almost seemed like an April Fool’s joke, but seems real enough. This is pretty unique actually, and even seems to perform all the other functions like stopwatch, flashing alarm, etc. It’s a genuine and unique Casio!

Okuda Hiroko: The Casio Employee Behind the “Sleng Teng” Riddim that Revolutionized Reggae | Nippon.com

The “Sleng Teng” riddim revolutionized reggae music in the mid-1980s, and has spawned hundreds of versions in the decades since then. Less well known is the story of how the distinctive bassline originated in a preset sample included on a Casio electronic keyboard and the work of a young developer fresh out of college.

As I just saw a video from ARTE on this topic, here is an article about it.
Fascinating part of history!

Reparatur eines obsoleten Gerätes...

Warum? Weil ich es kann! Und weil ich ein sentimentaler alter Sack bin. Das Teil habe ich vor ca. 30 Jahren für 400€ gekauft, um Fernsehantennen einzustellen. Das Thema hat sich nun weitestgehend erledigt. Es gibt kein Analogsignal mehr im Äther. Und selbst das analoge FBAS-Signal ist weitgehend auf dem Rückzug. So habe ich einen knapp 10 Jahre alten Raspberry PI1 an einen TV-Modulator angeschlossen, das Casio Teil mit Batterien versorgt um festzustellen: Kapott!

Also aufgemacht, die offensichtlich ausgelaufenen Elkos ausgetauscht. Lief immer noch nicht. Es hatte zusätzlich noch den Ein-Aus-Schalter mit der Umschaltung VHF / UHF erlegt. Völlig korrodiert. Also diesen Schalter auseinandergeprokelt, gereinigt und wieder zusammengebaut. Nun läuft das Teil wieder. Und was mache ich nun damit? Mich dran erfreuen und es wieder in eine Kiste packen.
