Casio expands its Vintage watch lineup with four new metal mesh strap models
Casio has introduced four new additions to its popular Vintage watch collection in the United States and Europe, giving fans of retro-inspired timepieces more stylish options with a premium-looking metal mesh finish.
The latest releases include updated versions of familiar Casio digital and hybrid watches, now fitted with finely woven metal mesh bands. This detail gives the watches a more refined appearance while keeping the classic design language that has made Casio Vintage models so recognizable.
The new lineup includes the A158WEMG-9, AQ230EMG-9A, LA680WEM-7A, and LA680WEMG-9A. Each model blends old-school Casio charm with a dressier strap design, making them suitable for everyday wear, casual outfits, and even smarter looks.
The Casio A158WEMG-9 is a rectangular digital watch with a gold-colored resin case and a gold ion-plated stainless steel mesh strap. It keeps the compact, nostalgic shape of the well-known A158 series while adding a more eye-catching metallic finish.
The Casio AQ230EMG-9A offers a hybrid design, combining two analog hands with a slim digital display. It has a square-shaped case with a gold-tone resin body and a matching metal mesh-style strap. This model is ideal for anyone who wants both analog elegance and digital convenience in one watch.
Casio has also refreshed the LA680 series with two new versions. The LA680WEM-7A features a silver-tone finish, while the LA680WEMG-9A comes in a gold-tone version. Both models use a square digital design with a resin and chrome-plated case and bezel.
Despite their vintage styling, these watches include practical everyday features such as a stopwatch, timer, and alarm. That combination of simple functions, lightweight construction, and retro design continues to be a major reason why Casio Vintage watches remain popular among collectors and casual buyers.
In the United States, the Casio A158WEMG-9 is priced at $99.95, while the AQ230EMG-9A is available for $110.00. The silver LA680WEM-7A is the most affordable of the group at $69.95, while the gold-tone LA680WEMG-9A costs $99.95.
The watches are also available in several European markets, including countries such as the Netherlands, Spain, and France. In Europe, the A158WEMG-9 is priced at €89.90, while the AQ230EMG-9A costs €99.90. The LA680WEM-7A is priced at €64.90, and the gold LA680WEMG-9A is listed at €89.90.
In the United Kingdom, Casio has confirmed that the LA680WEM-7A and LA680WEMG-9A are expected to arrive soon. Their recommended retail prices are £55.00 and £85.00, respectively. However, availability for the A158WEMG-9 and AQ230EMG-9A in the UK has not yet been confirmed.
With these new metal mesh strap watches, Casio continues to build on the strong appeal of its Vintage collection. The updated designs deliver a more polished look without losing the affordable, functional, and nostalgic character that has made these models timeless favorites.
