@@traviswalker8933 Casio makes a fishing watch with moon phase to help predict when it's likely best to go fishing. I'm sure anyone can look up this info online as well. Should Casio stop making it then? People buy it! Heck, one might as well say don't bother buying a Casio and just keep your smartwatch on, as it tells time, right? Along with a lot more than Casio watches are capable of. With that said, I think a lot of people would love to buy this watch seen in the video above, IF they know it exists. I would!
@@Northanteus a lot of Casio collectors know about this watch so it is not that obscure as it might seem. As for the tide graph and moonphase, they have integrated that functionality with a smartphone as seen with the PRT-B70 ProTrek.
@@traviswalker8933 I was meaning the general public (not just hardcore collectors, of which Casio would likely not make a new watch for, since that is very low numbers) who already like purchasing Casio watches, while knowing the capabilities of smart watches.

Having both and using them to their strengths is what a smart person would do. 😉
Found this watch in my drawer in August 2021 where I placed it 20 years ago after wearing since 1990. Took off due to scratches. Replaced the battery, buffed the display and am wearing it again. Daily look at where earth is in our solar system. THANK YOU FOR POSTING.
Finally someone who honors the simple looking but highly engineered Casio Watches - applause! Can‘t get enough of it. I‘m a bit sick of the typical VDW-Collectors who only go for the precious and shiny ones.
Casio really made superwatches and made them sound supernormal. They're incredibly cool, beautiful, quirky and I don't even know... I love casio. Awesome video as always man, short, sweet, to the point.
Although i never owned one, i Have loved this watch since late 80's - 1990 when i first saw it in an airport duty free watch seller. This and the Moon Graph have since remained in my heart. When seeing them in person as a kid, the curved screens on both models really stood out and made them seem even more special. It felt like it was the pinnacle of gadgetry (casio was the apple/samsung of the 80's to mid 90's i think - so often had the best gadgets - from calculator watches to game watches to to tv remote watches and other handheld and pocket electronic devices). Loved it then - love it now - loved it all the days in-between.
Had this in middle school, but I have no recollection of how I got it. When the alarm went off, the little Haley's Comet animation would go across the top screen. Eventually, it got so scratched, I switched to a G-Shock and tossed the Cosmo Phase in my desk. I just looked at ebay listings and am kicking myself for losing track of this watch.
Some people are trying to sell them for insane amounts. If you're patient you could get a good deal on them. That sucks though - I did the same thing with my Casio Golf Game watch! Bummer :)
GRACIAS por hablar de mí reloj CASIO tengo el mismo modelo, y te FELICITO por el excelente video que hiciste 👏👏👏, muy muy BONITO, podría CASIO volver a resucitar éstos modelos actualizandolos, la caja y las pantallas, hoy en día sería todavía más bonito éste COSMO 😊, un CORDIAL saludo desde Madrid España 🍻🙋 y FELIZ 2924.
The Casio Cosmo Phase was my dream watch as a kid. They are pretty much all collector's items by now. Good luck for getting your hand on this one or the Moon Phase watch for less than $500.
I had one from 1991 to 1992, it was a great watch. The downfall it did not have any back light on it. Now it's time for them to come out with one that is a smart watch design. They could of also added the Wave Ceptor atomic clock technology since many Astronomers rely on accurate time.
Great video, and it's a beauty. I got mine some 8 months ago almost new for 110 EUR. And just a couple weeks ago I saw one totally new on ebay with full papers, sold in 354 EUR. Ppl fighting for it until the last second!
Great vid of a great watch. I had mine back in the day until it stopped working twenty years later. Called casio about service and they said it 'had lived its full service life, but they no longer had parts to fix it.' Nothing lasts forever. was just as cool as it seemed
I had a flashback of the watch I was wearing during my teenage years and I set out to find information about it! I didn't have a clue it is collectable :)
In the picture , riding the smaller ellipse, the symbol for the Halley comet resambles rather the contour of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 no bloody A, B, C or D.
OMG , I was around 14, I wanted thi watch so muc, I SUPPLICATED my parents go get me one, and they did! I loved this watch so much. It was like 1990 and I played with thios watch all the time, putting the date to 2020, wonndering what the workd would look like. But somehow I lost this wat in the midddle 1990s, I am still so PISSED that I lost it!!!! :-(((#
A coincidece is that another UA-cam channel I follow posted a video of an even rarer bronze cased version of this watch. All in all, the first watch Casio made that goes beyond 2039 and 2099.
Relógio maravilhoso eu adoro o Universo e as galáxias e um Casio com essa complicação é muito legal. Esse modelo foi descontinuado? Abraços parabéns pelo seu trabalho 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Yes, I had this watch for a little while. My parents got it for me for my 10th birthday. Someone in high school wanted it more than I did and stole it from me. Couldn't wear a watch in gym class back then.....smh
My step dad gave me this watch in 96. I had no ideea back then about the planets animation, I thought it's just a gimmick but i still liked it. Lost it in the pool during swimming lessons becaue the belt strap rubber ripped away. I dove in the water and grabbed it back and wear it in my pants pocket after that. Sadly after few years my "best friend" at that time, stole it from me. We where around 16 years young kids, he got his girlfriend pregnant and needed money for abortion. Never felt bad about the watch until recently. My step father passed, funeral service employee gave me his wrist watch he was wearing before taking him away. It was a small cheap D&G broken watch that I thought it was fake. After i saw what a cheap non functional watch he was wearing I fel bad and had depression for 1 month. My birth day came and after 2 beers i said to my self i'm gonna buy my self a good looking watch (I was never into watches before) So while doing my researches, I found out what marvelous piece this Casio Cosmo was
Yeah this is my favorite watch as a kid. I bought it when it first came out in '89. I then proceeded to completely destroy it. I rebought it about 2 years ago from ebay as NOS. It's completely unblemished even with the model number on the bezel. This is usually the first to go as u can see with your watch. I spent close to $500 on it. Originally it was $60-$70 I think. I put it in a large watch case and only take it out a few times a year. Had a chance to get another one that was absolutely perfect for around $400 but I couldn't justify the practicality of having 2. hahahah These are almost impossible to come by without spending close to $700-800 in NOS condition and even then...maybe once or twice a year. I wish I had the original box and manual for it. That would probably bring the value closer to $1000-$1200 for my watch.
Seriously - I used to have a GG-9 Golf watch from Casio as a kid then got rid of it. They go for about $400 now. I got a superb deal on the Cosmo Phase. Got it from Ebay. The crystal had a lot of scratches but almost all of them came out with polywatch. A true classic!
@@WatchingCasio lol I loved to imagine I was a time traveler as a kid. What kid didn't right? I'd take this watch on trips then put the date back or forward in time and have a blast. I loved The Time Machine by H.G. Wells. :)
To get the light working on this model is difficult: First you need to press the Demo button 6 and a half times, next you need to take a screwdriver and turn the top left decorative screw (slightly) counter clockwise simultaneously as you pressed the demo button on its fourth time.
I really like to see CASIO stepping in the current Space X NASA Mars momentum by releasing some cool watches like this masterpiece. Elon, a word with Casio please..

Depends on market demand. Today's general public would just download an app for that in their smart watch.

Man, Casio really does make some interesting and unique watches. It's a shame that they discontinued models like these though...
Because most people don't wear digital watches anymore these days.
Casio was, and remains, ahead of their time.
I would love for them to push forward without getting into smartwatch territory.

I think reissue of this might be perfect "Interstellar" watch. Not one from the Hamilton.
Man, what a thing! That comet animation where it shoots into the lower display is insane! Love it, thanks for showing
April 8th 2024! Crazy how accurate it is.
Gee, thanks to you, here’s another Casio digital watch I didn’t know I needed! 😉 I love it. Thanks for sharing. Following the eBay link now 😏

wow you brought me back to the 90's era, I remember this watch very well
I had this watch when I was a kid. I forgot how cool it was!

What an amazing watch!
Old video I know but I love the look of this watch.,...if only I had 500.00
I just found it for 350 but in apretty decent shape. It's hard but if you keep looking you can get lucky!
I used to own this watch right from the beginning until 1993 when I got it stolen. Loved it.

Good price! I picked this one almost sight unseen. Luckily the scratches got buffed out nicely.
I just bought mine for 350 usd more than I bought my seiko for haha but you rarely ever see this watch sell for less than 500 bucks
Casio made a hell of watches...love it
And thanks for the manual!
I still have this watch!
Thanxxx for the video and the manual bro!
Thanks for bringing back some fond memories.
Great vid of a great watch. I had mine back in the day until it stopped working twenty years later. Called casio about service and they said it 'had lived its full service life, but they no longer had parts to fix it.' Nothing lasts forever. was just as cool as it seemed
Now I miss my star chart wheel. It was a brilliant analog machine that would pull you back in as the seasons changed.
oh, this watch with a g-shock style, solar power and combi bracelet would be awesome 😌
What a cool looking watch
That is some watch! I was wanting something like this for some time now. Very cool
Incredible watch, just brilliant from Casio.
Thanks for reviewing this, what a great item to own.
My pleasure!
My first watch! Man I loved that thing. I still have it but it's in bad shape and Casio doesn't provide spare parts. I hope they do a reissue.
Gotta love nostalgia! You could probably find some spare parts on eBay. Also, Polywatch got rid of almost all the scratches on mine.
What a lovely one in a grest vid. Thank you for intro
This shows our heart is one
Its still a beautiful watch
What a great find. Great review, thanks 👍
One of my favourite features is day, date, month, year and time shown constantly.
Same. I'm constantly checking the date and I love having it front and center.
I had one as a kid. Loved it... A class mate stole it from me and refused to give it back. :-(
Amazing watch
I had a flashback of the watch I was wearing during my teenage years and I set out to find information about it! I didn't have a clue it is collectable :)
Very cool!
Awesome watch indeed , i still have those one completly Made of stainless Steel and Mineral glas...my First one and the beginning of living Casio .
Jealous! Love that model.
I have one of these since 1990 very good works until today and I use it sometimes.
This was my first watch I spent my saved up money when I was a kid. Sadly traded in a year or two some aluminium or steel casio. Who'd known 🙄😁
Fifteen minutes ago, i had no idea this thing existed. Now, I must have one. Yes, I must...
I owned this watch. Bought it in Spain while there.
In the picture , riding the smaller ellipse, the symbol for the Halley comet resambles rather the contour of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 no bloody A, B, C or D.
I like it!
Awesome review and video ✨

CRAZY!!!
amazing!
Just got one for my collection! The buttons are tight. Looking forward to trying the Polywatch scratch fix.

i wanted this one so much, once i convinced someone to buy it for me, the store had been robbed the previous night.
Holy cow WTF :)
