Casio has released a new set of analog watches in India under the MTP-VT06 series. The lineup, which first appeared on the company’s international website earlier in June, includes four models that focus on standard timekeeping and a traditional multi-dial layout rather than smart features or digital displays.

Design Details

The new lineup is divided into two main configurations based on the strap material: stainless steel and leather. The MTP-VT06D-1B and MTP-VT06D-7B models feature a stainless-steel band with a triple-fold clasp, while the MTP-VT06L-1B and MTP-VT06L-7B come equipped with a standard black leather strap.

All four watches share the exact same core case dimensions, measuring 43 x 37 x 8 mm. The 8mm thickness keeps the profile relatively slim on the wrist. The watch case itself is ion-plated and topped with standard mineral glass. Due to the different band materials, there is a weight difference between the models; the stainless-steel versions weigh 78 grams, whereas the leather strap models are less than half that weight at just 37 grams.

On the dial, Casio has opted for a clean, traditional layout. The watches feature bold Arabic numerals and standard minute markings. The main functional addition is three sub-dials that track the date, the day of the week, and a 24-hour time readout. The 1B-designated models feature a black dial, while the 7B models come with an ivory dial with blue/grey accents on the hands and markings.

Internally, the watches run on a standard quartz movement powered by an SR621SW battery, which Casio estimates will last approximately two years before needing a replacement. The timekeeping accuracy is rated at ±20 seconds per month. All models in the MTP-VT06 series also feature basic water resistance, making them suitable for daily wear and minor splashes.

Pricing and Availability

Pricing for the new series is tiered based on the band material. The leather-strap models (MTP-VT06L-1B and MTP-VT06L-7B) are priced at ₹4,495. The stainless-steel variants (MTP-VT06D-1B and MTP-VT06D-7B) are slightly more expensive, retailing for ₹4,995.

All four models are available to purchase now through Casio’s standard retail channels and store locations in India.

In related news, Citizen has recently launched a limited-edition Promaster Skyhawk packed with flight-ready features, while Timex has introduced a new automatic field watch with a titanium case and 200-meter water resistance.
