Casio works in collaboration with Stasto Stand Stones on a new Watch Ring collection as a functional trinket. The small timepieces are an artful look that is wearable and defined by their iconic digital display, intricate dials, and other features. This includes the calculator that is scaled down to a ring size of 18.
The new functional design is a playful celebration of horology to capture an imaginative look that adds a stylish fashion statement. The Watch Ring collection has been available to shop since mid-July this year at retail outlets, toy stores, and home appliance stores in Japan. Additionally, the watch rings are also available to find through vending machines throughout Japan as well.
