Pulsar P2 14k gf + Casio C-80

Post19 Feb 2015, 23:29

Warning, 56k modem overload alert. Lots of pics lol. :grin1:

I won't be keeping these long, so I thought I would post some snaps.

P2 14k gf. I have quite enjoyed wearing this over the past few days. Not in perfect condition, but still quite lovely. The module it came with was dead, so I'm using a module from another P2. Does anyone know if the box is a p2 box?

Next is a Casio C-80 from 1980. It's close to mint condition except for a small scratch on the silver "PM" button and also the back case is beat up in the corner where it gets opened up. I bought it as spares/repairs being that the module was classed as dead. Comparing the dead module with another C-80 module I have, I noticed a small round white slip of insulating plastic was missing from where the battery cover sits. I made one myself and it now runs perfectly. Not as pretty as a P2, but still a significant piece for Casio.

Very nice shots. it's a pity you have to sell them..both are collectors items. Remember how proud you were when wearing a calculator watch back in the 80 ,s. :-D

Thanks Kasper. :D

Oh yes, I was a total 80's geek with digital watches, particularly calculator or special function casios. I would get all excited on birthdays/Christmas if I got a wrapped present in the distinctive shape of a Casio box lol. :roll:
