Casio launches three new retro A140WE digital watches in the US

Casio has made its A140WE series of vintage-style digital watches available in the US market. The lineup, which originally debuted in Japan in May 2026, adds three new models to the company’s extensive catalog of retro-inspired timepieces. The new releases include two silver-tone options, the A140WE-8A and A140WE-2A, alongside a gold-tone variant, the A140WEG-9A.

Design Details

The design of the A140WE series is straightforward, relying on the familiar square-case aesthetic that Casio is known for, but with slightly softer, rounded edges compared to some of its blockier predecessors.

The case measures 39 by 36.8 millimeters with a thickness of 10.4 mm, making it a relatively compact watch designed to fit a variety of wrist sizes. It weighs 60 grams. The case itself is made of resin, which is then treated with either standard chrome plating for the silver models or a gold-ion plating for the gold version.

For the display, Casio is using a standard digital LCD, but the surrounding dial incorporates a sunray finish. The A140WE-8A has a gray dial, the A140WE-2A uses a navy dial, and the A140WEG-9A features a light gold tone. This metallic finish catches the light differently depending on the angle, providing a bit of physical texture to an otherwise simple face.

The watch is paired with a multi-row stainless steel bracelet that features a vertical hairline finish and a self-adjustable clasp, designed to lay flat against the wrist for regular daily wear.

Internally, the A140WE series runs on a standard CR2016 battery, which Casio estimates will last for about seven years before needing a replacement. It also includes basic water resistance and a blue electro-luminescent (EL) backlight for reading the time in the dark.

Pricing and Availability

The A140WE series is available to purchase now in the US. The silver-tone A140WE-8A and A140WE-2A are priced at $110, while the gold-tone A140WEG-9A costs $130.
