Men's Vintage DBC32-1A Data Bank White Digital Watch

The CASIO DBC 32 is a legendary watch, it is the more affordable and casual sibling of the DBC 611 series of watches. It looks elegant and blends in really well- whether I’m dressed in crisp business casuals for work OR if I go out grocery shopping in my tshirt, running shorts and nikes. The watch is a timeless design that takes me back to the simpler, stress free days of growing up in the 80s and 90s. As with almost any CASIO, you can’t go wrong with this one. Functionality, simplicity, quality, longevity and yes - very reliable and accurate time keeping. Looks amazing on my wrist ! People at the bar and people I’ve met in other social settings always start conversations about this watch, something I don’t get often with my $15k Rolex. The biggest legends among watches are not expensive watches. Another beauty from Casio !

I'm a huge fan of the Databank series; both because of functionality and aesthetic. I had the CA-53W for awhile, and decided I'd "upgrade". I put the word upgrade in quotes because although this model has a light and a phone book (which I think is really cool!), it drops water resistance from the previous model. I showered with the old watch everyday, even scuba dived in the Grand Cayman Islands (despite the manual saying you shouldn't), and it's perfectly fine to this day, almost a year later. This watch has the look that I like, also a bunch of neat functions, but the loss of water resistance is unfortunate because otherwise I believe it would be perfect. EDIT: 20170614 The individual keys on the pad are a bit harder to push down, surprisingly, than the previous model. They also seem to be a tough sort of plastic, unlike the rubber feel of the CA-53W. For what it is does though, I still believe the product is worth 4 stars. EDIT: 20170619 Over the past week, I've noticed the wristband is a bit squeaky. Also, I've been steadily taking this watch with me in the shower/bath, sometimes fully submerged, and no signs of water damage at all (i.e water under the screen, buttons not working, etc). EDIT: 20171028 My watch is still very much functional/reliable, even with showering everyday with it. It's accrued a couple of scratches on the screen, but nothing too crazy. About a month ago, I went to look at the time and noticed a bunch of jibberish (random characters) on the screen. However, pushing one of the buttons cleared it and that problem hasn't happened again since. As I've used the phone book more, I've come to realize it's a shame the numbers don't double as a keyboard, kind of like a phone, or T9. Again, I use this watch everyday, and will continue to do so until a better Databank model is released. (Hopefully with a light and guaranteed water resistance). EDIT: 20180926 The timepiece is still going strong! I haven't had any "jibberish" issues since the last edit. I shower daily with the watch, even go swimming and go in the steam room/sauna, yet still no problems i.e; all buttons are functional, and light still works. However, I've had to replace both bands due to degradation. The one with the clasp gave out months ago, and the other with the holes actually cracked in half (sorry, I never thought to take pictures) recently. Luckily, Casio sells exact identical bands for really cheap. The reinstallation is a little frustrating at first, but once you get the hang of it, all future installs are a breeze. In my small collection, this watch remains my favorite. In case you're curious where I got my replacement bands, go here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004LGN54W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 EDIT: 20190818 After two years and some change, this piece remains my daily driver. I've taken it off and used another for a total of a month... at most. Yet, it keeps on ticking (pun definitely intended). Even with me going diving again (about 5-10 meters), the watch is entirely functional. Because of that, I have to give the watch 5 stars. There's no reason not to. I do, however, have some additional notes [read: very small nitpicks] I hope Casio can address in the next iteration: 1. I've replaced the band twice in two years. My first replacement was with the aforementioned official Casio resin band, and the second replacement was with an unofficial Casio band. So, I guess I hope they'll be able to increase the durability of their official band as I much prefer that to the one I currently use. 2. Having to use my finger nails to push the keys in on the keypad, there's permanent grooves [or indents] on them. No big deal though. The "jibberish" issue I had was truly an anomaly, as I haven't experienced since then. So yeah, a phenomenal watch for a phenomenal price. I'm still a huge fan of the series, and eagerly awaiting the next version! Changing headline from "Almost perfect" to "Perfect". EDIT: 20240324 In one of the above notes, I mentioned a genuine replacement band for this watch. After a 5 year hiatus from this masterpiece, I was ecstatic to return! Real quick, for those curious, the watch was still ticking and was only a few days off with the correct year. That really surprised me. Anyway, I soon realized I lost the replacement bands and spring bars that I had. Which brings me to the reason I am updating this post after my last... When I got my new replacement bands, about 4ish days ago, I was ready to get home from work and slap this bad boy back on my wrist! The link I posted years ago had a massive oversight though... If, for whatever reason, you lose your watch's spring bars (the metal piece inside the watch straps to keep it attached to chronograph), the replacements that Casio provides (again, linked above) do not include them. I cannot fathom a single good reason why these essential pieces would be omitted. Only thing I can think of is Casio wanting the consumer to buy an entirely new watch. But I am here to help negate that! So, go here for some spring bars, and with a tool to boot. I haven't bought them yet, but it seems like a good kit: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CYPVGWY/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A2T1L5956FRSLP&psc=1 I will be purchasing these soon and will provide an update. As for the DBC-32 itself, I had honestly considered dropping the score down because of the company's bad practices, but I believed it wouldn't be right because it is truly an amazing watch, remains at 5 stars. So, yeah...until next time. EDIT: 20240325 The spring bar kit already arrived. I got the watch slapped on my wrist and good to go now. I used the 22mm spring bar (I believe that’s also stated in the product’s info). I now have a kit full of spring bars that I’ll never go through in an entire two lifetimes, but it’s good peace of mind. I recommend purchasing the aforementioned kit if you lost your spring bar.

TLDR: I personally love this watch. Plenty of functionality, while not being over-engineered. Especially for the price. Highly recommend. I was using a smart watch before this and found myself just using the time, and calculator feature. But I was getting so frustrated with the battery life and how heavy it was. After doing some research, I chose this model as it's the big brother to the Casio calculator watch most people are familiar with and had more features with a "better" looking display interface. I was aware of the backlight issues another model had and the decided dealing with the possibility of difficult buttons was a better option. Turns out, the buttons were fine! They definitely are small and I often find myself using my fingernail for comfort, but it works perfectly fine with just you're finger. The backlight is clear as well. Simple, as does the job. Nothing very noteable. The different features are very handy as well. - Calculator is simple but can be used for more complex calculations. - Databank is nice for holding onto some extra phone numbers or any number pin or password you may wanna have on your person. - Stopwatch and Alarm, pretty self-explanatory. Effective and works well. -Dual time shows a secondary time of you're choosing alongside your primary time. Once again, works well, nothing too notable. It is slightly thicker than a standard no.2 pencil but it is nice and light and doesn't feel like it's weighing you down. Finally, it is a wonderful conversation starter. Unique vintage watches will definitely catch some folks eyes. For the price, it's functionality and style is a steal. Actually made me fall in love with Casio watches. And now, I'm likely to look into other models and see what catches my eye! Absolutely Recommend.

I have owned this watch for about a year now, and it is a fantastic watch. There's so many cool settings in it like obviously just the time and the calculator but a data bank and alarms too, easy to use and very durable, wear it to work everyday. The only bad thing is that I did get a slight scratch on the side of the screen but it's not noticeable. Good watch if you don't want a smart watch but still want a useful and reliable watch that has features on it.

I got this as a gift for my boyfriend and he loves it! Pros Buttons are easy to press Looks really cool and is the perfect size for a medium watch. Really light to wear Lights up when you move your wrist to look at it Display looks nice Working great for 5 months now. Cons Buttons are a little small (However, I'm not sure if this is bad, it just requires precision, the buttons can't be bigger for it to be a decent sized watch) Not water resistant (However he did get it wet and it was fine, I don't recommend it though) Neutrals Has a databank, not really useful for us, however its there if you need it.

Justo lo que esperaba, excepto una sola cosa que no me gustó, el sonido de la alarma es bajo, y solo dura 10 segundos sonando, el beep cada hora igual es bajito, pero a pesar de eso me gusta que el sonido es diferente, no es el típico que siempre escuchas en los Casio, es otro sonidito muy agradable,.. la luz es muy buena a pesar que es un led, ilumina bien toda la pantalla, y otra cosa que me gusto fue el diseño, o sea parece que se notará mucho que es un reloj calculadora pero no, es muy discreto, los botones están bien chiquitos y a menos que alguien se te quede viendo muy detenidamente ni lo notara, menciono eso por si a alguien le interesa ese detalle,.. también son muy fácil de apretar con las uñas, o sea no es algo que sea difícil ni incómodo, se sienten muy bien al tacto, otros detalles más: los números son como del tamaño de un f91w, pero debido a la pantalla grande son más legibles incluso con poca luz del día, aunque siempre tendras la luz led para auxiliarte, es muy ligero el reloj, ni lo sientes, hay una función que dependiendo el lugar donde estés ya no servirá, y es el horario de verano, donde atrasas o adelantas 1 hora, solo tienes que dejar apretado el botón inferior derecho y te cambia la hora en automático, aparte de eso tiene hora dual para que pongas una hora distinta si viajas a otro país, igual menciono esto porque muchos se confunden, son dos funciones distintas y en las reseñas ni lo mencionan.

Superbbb value for money

Very beautiful vintage watch
