'90 kid here. I have one on my wrist 90% if the time. Cheap, practical, and if I crash on my MTB or scratch it up while I'm gardening, it's no big deal.
I've seen a lot of young people wearing the silver and gold versions of it. I think there's a vintage trend, just like with the cyber shot cameras, but they're not really full committed to the black rubber ones.
Well it depends which side she took. I didn't really asked for a reasonning but if that new girlfriend is the reason her ex dumped her, that mean she is not that bad and a Casio may not be that inferior to a Rolex (which would anyway have led to a straight no had she asked for it). After all, a Casio F-91W is more reliable than a Rolex to give time and has other features such as an alarm clock.
I think Casio in some latin countries played with it as meme on twitter at the time.
I also think a Twingo is overall a much better car than any Ferrari for daily and lawful use.
