The Casio DBC-62
ONE TO WATCH
The ultimate in ’90s playground kudos is yours for a pittance
WORDS MARK McARTHUR CHRISTIE
WHEN I STARTED work in an ad agency, we still marked up colour press ads on large boards rather than a screen and faxed the proofs to clients. If they wanted changes (and they always did), you had to literally cut and paste strips of new copy onto the boards and wrestle them through the fax again. No ⌘C and ⌘V for us. When was the last time you even saw a fax, let alone used one? The DBC- 62 databank calculator watch comes from the same period and is just about as redundant, but a lot more interesting.
