CASIO men's radio-controlled watches with WAVE CEPTOR technology: Perfectly designed appearance and finish - with Velocity Indicator

Norderstedt, August 2007 - "Right on time, matching your style": This is the new slogan for the Autumn/Winter collection of men's radio-controlled watches. Those who know CASIO know that technology and function always go hand in hand with high fashion design. An example of this is the new WVQ-570DBE-1AVER, with the innovative "Velocity Indicator" function - a useful sports speedometer which blends in nicely with the stylish, high quality appearance. With an individually adjustable track, the Velocity Indicator works differently from the conventional tachymeter. Simply enter the track, commence timing at the start and stop timing when you reach the finish: the watch then displays the average speed - a good guide which can be of great interest in many situations. The WVQ-570DBE-1AVER is also unrivalled when it comes to visual appearance and finish: high quality carbon elements and an ionised bezel lend the watch its distinctive look. The chronograph with scratch-proof mineral glass also features a solid stainless steel case and band.
