:dwf:
Some watches are made to last only as long as they are fashionable
Some watches, simply are not made to last
Seiko watches are designed to withstand the ravages of both time and fashion
Someday perhaps, all watches will be made this way

A sad day indeed!
Under Mr. Kazuo Kashio leadership, Casio became in the 80's one of the most innovative companies worldwide, not only in the watchmaker's business - the Casio digital watches that many of us enjoy -but also in other fields, such as Musical Digital Instruments, for example:

RIP!
Every watch should have its own story...consequently, a watch collector has to be a good storyteller :)
