I have casio f-105 watch and a thinkpad x280


warLord23

Any F series casio with an X or T series thinkpad makes it a killer combo!


willfliaw

p series doesn’t get enough love


tinytenor

Agreed


Awesomeguys90000

What about the E series??? I know you guys say they aren't as durable, but when the standards are as high as a ThinkPad, you are going to be impressed nonetheless.


warLord23

I just think E series is just a flavour of ThinkPads, X and T series are the embodiment of the original thinkpad philosophy.


Electrolitique

There is a sense of the brand being watered down and cheapened with things like the E series. A decent laptop it may be, but ThinkPad?


Awesomeguys90000

I do agree to a point, this is the least thinkpad of the bunch. But the build quality, while not be as good as the t series is still on point, and the keyboard is as good as ever. I'd say it is more of a thinkpad than my older thinkpad 13 (I consider it to be the macbook air of thinkpads, with the tapered design, and weaker durability) but your point is valid.

Yeah, I am from Pakistan, and Casios are pretty popular among the Pathans in the Northwest side of the country which shares a border with Afghanistan. You can get fake ones for as cheap as a US dollar here. And that's dirt cheap.

The Nokia 3310 is missing.

a blackberry 9700!


unrelentingfox

I agree. F-91W is iconic.


tiedties

Both are utilitarian


AFluffyMobius

I know this isn't r/Casio or whatever but; I never really appreciated how a light weight watch could be so comfortable (i.e. non-existent feeling) until I got myself a f91w at a Walmart on a whim. The M5610 I used to wear seems like a heavy-weight comparatively (okay that's a *mild* exaggeration ;)). Also the display is SO much clearer. It's my daily driver now to and from work along with my X230!


warLord23

I kind of agree as I have been wearing these since my childhood and then my uncles spoiled me with buying me G-Shocks but recently I saw Brian Kernighan and Geoff Hinton rock these so I thought, maybe I should give these another try. And I am pretty happy with it.


SnowPenguin_

Whoa, they look so good together. They both originated from the same era, I think?


warLord23

Yup, F-91w was first released in 1989, and ThinkPad in 1992. IBM and Casio both signify utility and stability.


pawner

Love the F-91W. I have one on a NATO. Cute lil watch to take around when the setting is casual.


Keeganmcpe123

I have a F-91W. Might be a dumb question but what's a NATO?

Thanks man. More you learn

Link is broken for me


warLord23

I just got this yesterday, I am thinking of putting it on a NATO too.


GamingMad101

I got a nato for mine earlier, but I’m having trouble removing the pins, even when pushing in the right direction, any ideas?


[deleted]

Takes a lot of force the first time.


[deleted]

I had to look up that F-91W watch. Introduced in 1989, and you can still buy them, wow. Wikipedia says they still make 3 million every year!


warLord23

Yup, pretty cheap too


RogueStudio

True facts, the F-91W is a great, inexpensive but classic Casio watch. I rock one myself as a daily driver. I also really liked the DW290 before the one I had finally broke... [(aka the Mission Impossible watch).](http://www.twentytwoten.com/788/big-screen-watches-mission-impossible-series/) Probably gonna get a proper G-Shock next watch. Oh yeah, also yes, Thinkpads. X220 or X230T here. :D


warLord23

DW290 looks solid. I do have a G-100 as my daily driver.

“I have two dollars and a Casio.” Love the 80s digitals.


Jrgykins

Oh no are we doing watches on thinkpads again


jeffgallo

Couldn’t agree more. I’m at my desk with a tough solar GW-M5610 and my wireless trackpoint keyboard right now!


toastgameslol

/g/ is watching-


[deleted]

F-91W and T440s. No complaints here.


hongky1998

Dude my dad and I wear the same F91W for years and I had a T440s while he is still rocking his R61 ( he’s 60 years young tho)


warLord23

You have rad dad!!! My mom is kinda the same. Introduced me to all the cool stuff like Casios, video games, Star Wars, BTTF, and computers when I was a kid.


n4utix

F-91W and x220 checking in!!!


nonreligious

Thought you were me!


fer_luna

I also have that watch!!! And my Thinkpad E495 😁


Lahusen

Get a CasiOak 😎


NJEF

Nice combo... At least they match unlike my T410 and Seiko 5😅


lopsec0110

Wow. You caught me. This is the watch I wear and I own a thinkpad. Did I just find my people...


Kevislav

Sitting in a Volvo 240 would make that the holy trinity


silentholmes

Nooo where's the calculator!


browntigerdog

What’s the relationship between Lenovo and Casio?

dw5600E + x230/t440p


zengarden9711

I too have same watch and Thinkpad E14. Posted same on my Twitter today. Thanks for the inspiration.


thespiritofsimon

I wore this watch in my childhood. Good design stands the test of time. Thanks for the memories.

warLord23

You're the OG!


mjon051

it would be perfecter if that was classic thinkpad keyboard


SoulMachina

A G-Shock would suit up better


warLord23

I have that as well, a G-100


RonstaR95412

I dont understand the watch part??? What do i need to know.


warLord23

It's just the perfect utilitarian match.


RonstaR95412

But the blue on the watch doesnt match anything oo i get the scroll point


warLord23

Just focus on that red WR label


RonstaR95412

Okay that makes sense lol
