Remember Casio’s watch calculators famous in the 80s? Now they are back in a whole new variety of colors including black, gold, green, orange and white.

You will be able to pick one up for $59 a pop, although those who opt for the classic pure-black or golden version will have to pay a bit more. Let's go retro with this stylish calculator watch.

Even Mackdaddy has created a cool limited edition of this Casio Databank watch. A must have for all retro lovers.
