Casio has launched two new analog watches in China under the MTP-C666 series. The models are called the Casio MTP-C666-1B and Casio MTP-C666-7B, and they are part of the company’s 2025 Exam Gift Box range. The watches are designed for students preparing for important exams that usually take place in February and March.
The MTP-C666-1B comes with a black dial and white hour markers, while the MTP-C666-7B features a white dial with black details. Both versions use a silver tone stainless steel case with ion plating and a black resin strap. The dial layout is simple, with three hands for hours, minutes, and seconds, making it easy to read time quickly.
Casio has focused heavily on the exam theme through the packaging. The gift box design is inspired by the Chinese legend of a carp jumping over the dragon gate, which represents success and achievement. The carp design is combined with the Chinese character for luck and fortune. The package also includes a random lucky card with motivational messages and traditional patterns. This card can be used as a bookmark. A set of lucky stickers is also included.
In terms of specifications, the watches use a Japanese quartz movement that is designed to be quiet and reliable. Accuracy is rated at ±20 seconds per month. The watches are powered by an SR626SW battery that can last about three years under normal use.
The case measures 42.7 × 36 × 8.1 mm, and the total weight is 41 grams. The glass used on the front is mineral glass. The strap supports wrist sizes from 145 mm to 215 mm. The watches also offer basic water resistance for daily use.
Pricing & availability
In China, the Casio MTP-C666-1B and MTP-C666-7B are priced at 390 yuan, which is about $57. Because of the exam-focused theme and cultural elements in the packaging, these models are not expected to launch in markets such as the US and EU.
