🐟 CASIO W-400 MARLIN — CLASSIC EARLY ’80s CHARACTER

The blue graphics, small marlin emblem and screw-down metal case back give the Casio W-400 its distinctive early ’80s look. Introduced in 1983, this model belongs to the vintage Casio watches collectors affectionately call “Marlin,” after the fish logo on the face.

For collectors who enjoy the details of older digital watches, the appeal is in that combination: a compact black resin case, contrasting blue accents and the unmistakable layout of an early Casio alarm chronograph.

This example is the W-400 with module 106, as marked on the case back.

🔎 ACTUAL CONDITION

This is a pre-owned vintage watch with visible signs of age and use.

• Non-original strap: A replacement strap is fitted.

• Cosmetic marks around the display: Patchy marks are visible on the printed face border surrounding the LCD, particularly along the upper, left and lower edges. These are cosmetic marks on the surrounding border, not marks on the LCD itself. Please see the photograph with blue circles and arrows. The exact cause is unknown.

• Surface wear: The crystal, resin case and metal case back show scratches and wear. Please examine the close-up photographs carefully.

The photographs show the actual watch offered for sale and form an important part of the condition description.

🕰️ COLLECTING & CARE

With vintage resin watches, the surviving case, face details and replacement parts all matter when assessing an individual example. This W-400 retains its recognisable blue Marlin design, with the cosmetic wear described above.

Please handle the aged resin case and strap attachment points gently.

The 100M marking is the original water-resistance specification, rather than a guarantee of its present condition. Water resistance is not guaranteed; please keep this vintage watch dry.

📦 PACKING & SHIPPING

The battery will be removed before shipping and is not included. A battery will need to be installed upon arrival.

The watch will be packed with protective wrapping inside a box and shipped from Thailand with tracking.
