Vintage price, but still desirable item.
This model is no longer being manufactured and as a result these are getting harder to find any new ones, which is the cause for the increased prices several times the original list price due to its rarity.
I purchased mine used and it had a defect, because someone had an unqualified person remove the inside module and reassembled incorrectly so as to jam up the buttons so only the time worked. Because it was rare, I had it reassembled correctly to get all functions working correctly and now very pleased with this item. Therefore, I recommend only qualified persons remove the inside module because complications can damage buttons on reassembly if not done correctly.
I read on a forum that some places refuse to change the batteries in this model instead referring folks to send them to a Casio Service Center to change the battery due to problems from unqualified persons opening the case. One issue is there are two springs that can fall out and make it no longer work if those get lost. So recommend you are careful not to let the springs fall out or put them in the wrong holes, or have Casio change the battery to prevent making it no longer work.
I had an older Casio Database Model 610 with only 50 memory storage, and a rubber membrane keypad. Those of us who had any model of these before, know that while the case is subject to wear, the internal components seem to last and last. My old watch bought in 1989 is still working fine, but now wanted this newer model with more memory and hard keys on the keypad. With the older a rubber membrane keypad the printing faded soon and was hard to read and later hard to press. This newer keypad with hard keys is much better and a long overdue upgrade to this model.
A drawback with this newer model is the programming of the exit of Modes button. The older 610 model had an early exit feature wherein once you select any of the modes, by pressing any button followed by a single press of the Mode button would exit that menu returning to the time mode. This is not so in this newer model. Now, once you select any mode, to exit to the time screen, you no longer get early exit and have to press the mode button for each mode until you finally return to the time screen. In other words, now more button presses are required to exit any mode you are in.
Another change is the Toggling of am/pm vs. 24-hour Time Mode. The older 610 model you only had to press the select button on the lower right side to toggle between am/pm vs. 24-hour Time Modes, however, now you have to enter the time edit mode before you can toggle that feature, thereby requiring more keystrokes.
I do not know if those features were modified to take more button presses to make space for more storage memory, or why they made those harder to use.
I use my telephone list to also store other data than phone numbers, such as PIN Numbers, Birth Dates, Padlock Combinations, and more. What ever you can image that can be stored in those spaces for characters and numbers is your limit to its abilities in that space.
Bottom line, the hard keys on the keypad is better than the older models, but the programming of the exit of Modes and Toggling of Time Mode was better in the older model than this newer model. Even so, the hard keys on the keypad and expanded memory of this model still make it worth it to have this model. A big plus for me is that the memory is not saved, even if your battery goes completely dead. My older model sometimes lost the memory when changing the battery if not done quickly enough or done correctly. Not a problem with this model.
New smart phones can store a lot of stuff now a days, but this is a handy place to keep data that is readily available even when your smart phone is not, or needs charged.Lire l'avis complet...

The best Wrist Watch model Casio ever made
This is the fifth time I own the same kind, the last one I found only in black polymer material but it has the same functions. As soon as I found the metal kind I decided to get it as well (though is more expensive) since it looks more elegant, and I will use for special events (formal events). I love having all the build in functions and the order (scrolling) between the functions in intuitive. I specially enjoy the 24h world time feature that shows the time all over the globe without having to calculate it. It helps me at work when I have to call worldwide. I owned the newer model of Casio Data Bank but it wasn't so easy to use the world time function, it wasn't intuitive at all (in my own view Casio went backwards) therefore when I found the good 'n old model, it was natural that I would get it.Lire l'avis complet...
Nice Watch & Band
I have similar (better) watch that had a broken band. I saw from the picture on-line that this watch had the exact same band that I couldn't find elsewhere. The band fits perfectly and now I have a spare watch if I need one in the future.Lire l'avis complet...

Love this watch
This is a great watch. This is my third one. Unfortunately Casio no longer sells this version. It stores many phone numbers and dates. I travel internationally twice a year and the time zone feature with the daylight savings button is indispensable. I often use the timer feature. The calculator comes in handy when figuring out gas mileage. Lire l'avis complet...

Casio Databank DBC1500
This is my fourth one of these in (about) 20 years. I’ve always owned one because I’m forgetful, and it has a schedule feature to remind me of things I ought to do. Cell phones have the same feature, but I don’t always carry my phone at work or elsewhere.
The watches I’ve owned last four to five years, and stop working when you can no longer effectively enter data into them.
If you’re technically inclined, installing a new battery shouldn’t be a problem—if you’re not then you have to take it or ship it somewhere to have that done.
The design should probably be updated, but I can’t imagine not having one of these on my arm.Lire l'avis complet...
Retro design coming back into fashion?
Like this watch as this is the only calculator that doesn't go missing in the lab. Alarm, count down timer and stop watch functions have proved useful numerous times. Data base for schedules and contact numbers is very convenient. Wish this model was still made. A great product!Lire l'avis complet...
One of the last ones for sale anywhere. He loves this one the best.
It's his favorite watch and this is the last one I can find anywhere. He was so thrilled that I got it ahead of his birthday. He's had his last one for at least 5-6 yrs that we both for considerably less, but I was grateful to find it. It arrived when you said it would in great condition.Lire l'avis complet...

This limited edition style watch works well and the glow in the dark feature in the key pad is soo cool and makes this limited edition style of Casio Calculator watch valuable.
