Restoration of a Casio Watch - Modified Too! Casio F-108WHC
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
This time I restore my trusty old, but very dead and grubby, Casio F-108WHC watch. Not content with a simple restoration I also get my soldering iron out and make a modification to the circuit board for a more stylish and effective performance in the dark. I am a big fan of Casio and am wearing my resilient Casio G-Shock GA-2000 Carbon Core Guard through out this video. The Casio F-108WHC is very similar to the Casio F91W so if yuo own that what this video will be very interesting to you.
I do not do a lot of talking in this video perferring to let the action tell the story.

There is absolutely nothing “special” concerning this piece which is what makes this video especially satisfying. Very nice job.

Haha! The joy is in the doing of it carefully not in the supposed value of the watch. It is great that you understand this Maestro Mechanico! Richard
Many years ago, in a forum, a watchmaker wrote "Death to the quartzs!", and all the other watchmakers in the forum cheered and agreed. (I quit that forum shortly after) Seeing you approach this Casio with love and respect was very refreshing, I really love your attitude to anything that is horology. Thanks a lot for this video.

Such an underrated brand of timepieces. I have several 'top shelf watches but my everyday knockabout watch is a $21 Casio 201. Incredible value for a watch that hits the marks perfectly. Thank you for showcasing these humble timepieces.
Absolutely love this video! We've created a 'throwaway' culture through so much designed obsolescence in items which should last us _at least_ as long as these Casios... mass production hasn't always meant 'cheap & nasty', and a pleasing design with simple uncomplicated function is timeless. It's so refreshing to see someone lovingly restore a quartz watch _and_ make minor changes (ie. the blue LED) so it's functional & desirable today. I'd wager that Casio will outlast any Apple Watch that rolls out of the factory today 👌

Apple Watch is a computer on your wrist, it rubs on software which needs updating. They last a couple of years and that’s it. The Casio will last as long as you take care of it and replace the battery. Just wanted to point out the difference
I LOVE Casio watches!! Most of my collection are Casios, including several G Shocks. I don’t think there’s another brand that offers as much value for money.

*_Keep your expensive timepieces. Casios especially G-Shocks, bring me utter contentment in watch brands. The functions are lovely: Wave Ceptor, Tough Solar, Countdown Timer Mode, Stop Watch Mode, Alarm Modes, illumination, Auto EL/LED, World Time Mode, altimeter, barometer, compass, sunrise & sunset data, moon age, hourly tone beeps, GPS, vibration alerts for alarms, timers, and notifications, four digit passcodes for info, and etc. are some them. 😋🤩_* *_As beautiful and complex as they are, mechanical movements come up apparently short in these features._*
Horology is about fun and accessibility. You treated this dear old Casio with respect and love. We can all learn a thing or two about watch repair by viewing this video! Welsh Pembroke Corgi?
Kudos for taking the time to show this. It's interesting to see an experienced professional take time to repair something that non-expert people would not consider. Something like a professional driver or airline pilot by day driving an old Volkswagen on his personal time. If you spent one hour on this repair, the value of your time would be 10 times the value of the watch. But the value of preserving that watch repair on youtube for history is priceless. For every happy rolex owner there must be a thousand happy casio owners, which does say something. Keep up the good work, and all humans make mistakes from time to time.

Hi Brent... Thanks for this. I figure the interest is in the design of the watch rather than its value and the enjoyment in doing the work comes from doing it as well as I can regardless of the value. Very pleased that you get this and also think my video brings value to KZread which is great. Great feedback, much appreciated. Richard
Richard, you may not see this, but the sole reason I subscribed was because I love the work you do, I love listening to you as does my young watchmaker Billie.

I bought a Seiko ana- digital in 1985 h557 5319 and in 2011 had battery changed , no problems, got caught in rain storm and watch died, moisture inside. That was in 2012. Left it on the shelf till 2022 and replaced battery, didn't reanimate. Took it to watch shop, no dice. Guy shook head about sending it to Seiko. It had sentimental value so I took it all apart for fun, and the hands fell off, and I threw it in the bin. I don't regret it but also wasn't in love with it. I had a Gshock mudman from about 2010 and I have 6 inch wrists and the housing developed a crack where the pin goes through. Basically, I couldn't repair it. Now I own two Gshocks, GA2110 and GW5610 U ( updated version) and I really like it. I work at a dying plant and I never had a problem. I owned a Hamilton quartz a while back 1990s and lost it. I was also thinking about adding a mechanical watch to my collection but I like quartz better and the solar radio Gshock is really cool 😎 I see citizen watch qaurtz going for 2000 and my mouth drops. If I played lottery( don't play) and won the jackpot I would but the HAQ. Lol 😆 there are so many nice watches You are inspirational ❤️ 🙌 . Good job 👏. I subscribed
I've got an 'F-Shock', an F-108, so this was very interesting to see, thanks for making the video.
It has inspired me to bring out my 1981 Black Casio CA 90 watch!
I remember when i was 8 yo at school (1985) fix and swap between model of casio watch , like changin screen or light ^^ I have the 1983 W750 "MARLIN" , i had to change the battery and it work very well ^^ Digital watch CASIO is the best for me ! i have only CASIO (Digital) or SWATCH (Analog) why ? : 101% waterproof , ultra long battery life and it's beautiful ^^ I'm electrician but i love electronic from childhood , very glad to find your channel ^^ friendly from belgium :) 0:50 this is why casio watch work a long years ! look at the size of the battery ! exactly the same than computer motherboard (just thinner for specific models)
It is very nice and inspiring to see a professional working. Thanks a lot. And when i reconsider my video about the same subject, i am ashamed...

I really like my Casio G Shock. I have never seen a white cased one.It looks awesome
Brilliant I'm obviously old cause the watch is in my eyes simple and beautiful...never seen a white one my Casio all through my childhood was a Casio F-18 only downside was the strap was part of the watch but boy was it robust i swam with it and almost never took it off.
Nice one! Your loving attention to a highly accurate and pretty-much indestructible watch is commendable and appreciated! Tough times forced me to sell off my mechanicals. 5 years ago, If someone would've said that my G-Shock 3229 will be my go-to, everyday wear watch I would've looked at them like they were insane!

Thank you very much for doing such a thorough and excellent job on a simple Casio. I've watched restoration videos here where the watchmaker didn't even clean the crystal or the case. They just restored the movement and nothing else. For me, this is unacceptable unless the owner of the watch wants it that way.
How very cheeky! "The watch is working fine, sir, there's only 55 minutes in an hour, you know. It's working perfectly!" Most trades have their own jokes like the "left hand crescent wrench" but I hadn't heard the one about the 55 minute hour. Great restoration and many thanks.

OK, that’s the one that made me like and subscribe. You gave as much care to that little $10 Casio, as you do to much finer watches. I have a soft spot in my heart for Casios. I had a half dozen of them during the 80’s and 90’s; all of them performed brilliantly for me. And I recently acquired a nice Square G. If you are alone on a dessert island, even the cheapest Casio will serve you better than a Rolex, at least until the battery runs out! Great video. Thanks!

The size of the tools you use are so darn tiny in comparison. I'm glad to see you do a restoration on one of these old Casios. Had plenty of them through the years and I think they are awesome watches. Even had one that had a temperature display on it. Loved that watch!
