Released in the late 1980s, an unassuming digital watch known as The Casio F91W has managed to carve out a spot for itself in the hearts of street culture enthusiasts despite its lack of intention.

The Casio F91W is a watch that was first made to be cheap and good at timekeeping. It has a simple design which consists of a rectangular digital screen, as well as a black casing made out of tough plastic called resin; there are no complications in its way of operation whatsoever such as alarms or timers for example. When worn on the wrist it is light in weight and thin which means it can be worn virtually all the time without any problem at all if wanted by someone due to its appearance. Yet another advantage why that person would really want this watch too is because its battery lasts up to seven years hence one does not need to worry about it for some time after acquiring one.
