Product Information

C-80 is the first calculator watch to be ever produced. The Databank CD-40 and CD-401 are the first Databank watches, debuting in 1983. It is one of the first digital watches developed in the 1980s that allows the user to store information, following a Pulsar model released in 1982. [1] I have a few of the silver clip band versions of that telememo50 but I find that those metal bands pull on arm hair a bit too much for my liking.

As of 2020 [update], Casio sells the following models of the data bank: the DBC-611 and the DBC-32, which provide data storage, calculation and schedule capabilities, the DB-380 and the DB-36/360 which provide data storage capabilities. All models allow for a selection of multiple languages. [6] See also [ edit ] One last model to talk about. An exciting "retro" release happened in 2011, when Casio released the DBC-611 and DBC-611G:With the advent of smartphones and smart watches, the data bank watches like calculator watches lost their popularity and are now mostly a fashion statement. Today, Casio still sells data bank models with basic data bank functions. Data bank models having unique features are highly sought after by watch collectors.

I believe DBC means "Data Bank Calculator", as they all have an alphanumeric keypad for entering in numbers and text. Since the DBC watches have the keypad, it makes sense to add a calculator for "free". These differ from the Casio DB watches, which require you enter in each character individually by cycling through with two large front buttons.

In the Alarm Mode, use [+] and [÷] to select a onetime alarm (alarms 2 through 5) or the Hourly Time Signal. The flashing automatically advances to the right each time you input a number. You can also use B and C to move the flashing between input digits.Wow, this is the most comprehensive thread with amazing pictures I have ever found regarding the DBC series on the entire internet. Congrats to OP; your hard work and attention to detail shows!!
