Nothing like a collection of casiotone keyboards
Of course you are.
I have a very modest collection, all Seikos, Hamiltons, Benrus. All mechanical or automatics. Until.... My girlfriend got me a G-Shock. Great watch, I wear it more than any other in my small collection. I'd say you are not a true watch collector UNLESS you have a Casio. LOL
Casio is consistently ranked S tier in terms of watch brands by other watch collectors
Do you own multiple watches? Sounds like a collection to me
Absolutely, casios are great.
Their watches are so good that people (including myself) usually buy multiple of the same version in different colorways.
Collecting is more a matter of intent, rather than the amount of watches or amount spent.
If you actively bought those watches and intend to buy more, you're a collector. Doesn't matter if it's cheap, expensive or a single brand. There's plenty of people who just collect G-Shocks for example.
Yeah, and for real, i think most of watch enthusiast started to like watches when we where kids because of casio.
Unless they are calculators or keyboards. Then you'd be a Casio calculator or keyboard collector😬
I have Casios in my collection. Along with more expensive watches.
My Breitling reminds me of my grandpa.
My Casios remind me of my childhood when a calculator watch was the coolest thing I had ever seen.
It's all about why you collect. Enjoy your collection.
No you’re a potato collector.
Honestly what are these questions even lol? Of course you’re a watch collector if you collect watches. The price tag is irrelevant.
Love Casinos for my outdoor activities and camping. The witches are the toughest sobs I have seen and provide really nice features. I love the solar ones that have lights.
Do you have more than 3? If so its a collection.
This would make you a “Casio collector”
Now, you can only call yourself a “watch collector” if you also call yourself an “accessory collector”
In a word, yes.
If the Casios were microwaves then I'd say no but they're watches so yes.
Are there microwave collectors? You've inspired me to look into this. Offhand I am betting that there must be a few

It sounds like you're a Casio collector. Which are watches. So I vote yes.
Yes, you are a watch collector. I bought a few watches and then thought I wouldn't be a watch collector without a casio. A good watch doesn't have to be a luxury watch.
You’re a watch collector if you decide you’re a watch collector (and/or if you have at least one watch and are on the hunt for your next one…)
Are they watches? Do you collect them? If yes and yes then you are a watch collector.
Unfortunately yes.
You're a watch collector, Harry !
You’re a Casio collector
Casios are cool.
Casios are sick bruh. Collect what makes you happy.
Yes you are
Depends… are they watches or calculators?
You are a collector if you have a watch and a dream, and if you say you are, you are.
This community is for timekeeping, not gatekeeping. So yes, you're a watch collector. Casios are watches, and you're collecting them.
Collecting is more about mindset and intent than anything else. My wife has multiple watches, but it’s not a collection because she doesn’t intend it to be a collection. I have a bunch of suits to wear for work, but I don’t consider it a collection. The three-watch collection is a recognized trope, and the one-brand variant is a much-discussed variation. If that’s what you consider yourself to have, then you’re a collector.
Am I a gardener if I only grow roses?
Of course you’re a watch collector. I have some $2 flea market Timexes in my collection.
It’s not about price…it’s about collecting something that gives you joy.
Some people collect Ferraris….some people collect Pez dispensers.
Let’s be real. Casio makes all that a watch necessarily has to be. So respect to that and knowing what you need/want.
Not only are you a collector, you are enthusiast who was wise enough to start affordable!
Well, they are watches, so yea.
Casio Moonphase, Casio Duro, Casio G shock. There's also the Casioak g shock GA 2100. But honestly with those three first pieces you'll have a solid diverse collection of quartz watches. And that look good on tha wrist to boot.
Yes. In the same way as I have a number of items of clothing, therefore I am a clothes collector.
once i chatted with my friend who proudly said he is a watch collector, with collection consist of casio, alba, and alexandre christie (kind of fashion watch here in southeast asia). It's not about the brand, as long as you genuinely smile every time you look at your wrist.
I wouldn’t consider you a collector. But I wouldn’t consider myself a collector. And I have like 5 luxury watches. But hey, these are 5 off the shelf Rolex, IWC… that’s not collecting for me. That’s owning some nice watches. You own some nice Casios. That’s cool!
Are you a wine drinker if you drink pinot noir?
Yes
Hell yeah man. I've collected and been a nerd for watches for a long long time and Casios are some of the best watches you can get. If you're curious about other brands it's definitely worth it to get some divertisy in a collection, but if Casio is your thing then Casio is your thing, and that's awesome :)
Out of all my watches, my top 3 worn are all Casios
Damn skippy! Welcome to the Halls of Collecting!
they are watches. you collect them.
Casio and Seiko are the gateway drugs to watch collecting.
How dare you. Shame. You seem more like an enthusiast not a collector.
Absolutely. Casio make some tremendous bang for the buck watches that are worth collecting. I'm personally looking to get an Oceanus. Again, a tremendous value for what you get.
Yes you are! Now add a G-Shock!
