After months of desperate eBay searches and online watch forums buzzing with "Where can I find it?", Casio America has officially announced the restock of its cult-favorite CRW001-1 Ring Watch. Starting July 1, the retro-futuristic timepiece—worn on your finger instead of your wrist—will be available again via the Casio Online Store.
Why the Hype?
Launched in 2020, the CRW001-1 quickly became a conversation starter. Designed as a lightweight titanium ring with a digital display, it channels 1980s sci-fi vibes while packing modern functionality:
- Water resistance (up to 50 meters)
- Stopwatch, countdown timer, and daily alarms
- Full auto-calendar and LED backlight
- 2-year battery life
Despite its niche appeal, the Ring Watch sold out almost instantly during its initial drop, later resurfacing on resale sites for triple its $99 retail price. Fans praised its quirky wearability—perfect for nurses, chefs, or anyone needing hands-free time checks—while critics called it "the ultimate retro flex."
Restock Details & Strategy
Casio confirmed the CRW001-1 will be priced at $99 USD and sold exclusively through their US online store. Industry watchers note this restock seems targeted to meet pent-up demand rather than a full relaunch. As one fan commented on Instagram: "This isn’t just a watch; it’s wearable nostalgia."
