Casio DGW-30 Digi Graph Vintage 1988 Digital Watch Module 828 Japan 39mm 100M

About this watch

The Casio Digi Graph DGW-30 is one of the most distinctive late-1980s Casio digitals. Its module 828 LCD combines a full digital readout with two small analog-style graphic subdials and a central fan-shaped graph segment, giving the watch its unmistakable "Digi Graph" face. The black resin case is framed by four exposed screws and stout pushers, rated to 100 metres, with a screw-down stainless steel caseback. This example is the Japan-made version, signed "828 DGW-30 Japan T" on the back, and comes on its black resin Casio strap with a steel buckle.

Brand heritage

Casio was founded in Tokyo in 1946 and entered the watch business in 1974 with the Casiotron, one of the first digital watches with an automatic calendar. Through the 1980s Casio built its reputation on inventive multi-function digital modules, and the graph series (Tri Graph, Digi Graph, Moon Graph) is today among the most collected of that era.
