Why is it a slow season for Casio watches?

President of Bluedial, online retailer of brand-name watches, anticipates a shortage in the supply of Casio watches due to the flood crisis in Thailand where many manufacturing plants, including watch parts suppliers, are stationed. Casio took a major hit creating a delay in production of many popular G-Shock and Pathfinder watches.

Manufacturing companies are hit hard with the flood in Thailand that started in mid-July. Facilities are flooded forcing companies to stop production. Thailand is home to many industrial factories that provide a great amount of supplies to the world including hard disk drives and automobiles. Many companies have faced a downturn due to this disaster in Thailand.

The roads are flooded with two meters of water due to heavy rains. The people of Thailand must travel through waist-high water levels. Thais use what they have around them to make homemade floatation devices and rafts in an effort to keep themselves or their belongings dry. Sandbags are used as blockades in an attempt to divert the water away from homes and buildings. Evacuation and relief efforts are being made. Thais work together as they endure the last three months of flooding.

Some major watch companies, including Casio and Seiko, have manufacturing facilities in the flood zones. Production of major watch components in Thailand is at a pause. Delays in production of watch parts can be expected until the disaster starts to clear out. Expect a slowdown this season in the supply of popular watches including Casio G-Shock, Pathfinder and more.

The effects of the flood also have a toll on many other industries especially the electronics and automobile industry. Sony, Nikon and Honda are just a few of many major companies to fall victim to the flood. Manufacturing factories, including many in the Ayutthaya industrial area, are flooded inside their facilities reaching up to six feet of water.

Thailand faces one of the worst floods in half a century creating a global shortage on supplies. Despite the questionable slow government response to the flood crisis, relief efforts and evacuations are being made. The filthy water creates concern for risks of infection and water contamination. The death toll has reached 500 and counting.

How to Clean a White G Shock

By Jeffrey Brian Airman, eHow Contributor

The small tip of a cotton swab allows for precision cleaning.

Clean a white Casio G-Shock watch to make it look as good as the day it came out of the box. The plastic resin of a white Casio G-Shock gets dirty quickly with regular use. Grooves on the underside of the strap collect oils and grime, which dull the color of the watch. Carefully cleaning a white Casio G-Shock restores its appearance without harming the function or causing any damage.

Instructions

1. • 1

     Lay the white G-Shock watch face down on a soft towel and squirt a few drops of isopropyl alcohol onto a folded paper towel.

   • 2

     Rub all the surfaces of the watch with the slightly moistened paper towel until the towel begins to darken and appear grimy. Switch to a new paper towel and continue until the towels appear clean after fully wiping down the G-Shock watch.

   • 3

     Drip a couple drops of the alcohol onto a cotton swab and work the tip into any dark grooves or dirt you see on the watch. Switch to a new end on the swab or new swab altogether when the one you are using has a dark, dingy appearance.

   • 4

     Dampen a melamine foam sponge with water and wipe down all the white plastic resin on the band and around the watch face.

   • 5

     Examine the watch closely to see if you have successfully removed all the collected dirt. Stubborn grime and ink marks may require additional cleaning to remove.

   • 6

     Add a single drop of nail polish remover to a new cotton swab and wipe down the areas that are still showing marks on the white surface. Avoid rubbing the nail polish remover on any painted areas of the watch or band, as it may smear the paint.

   • 7

     Rinse the clean watch under cold running water and dry it completely before putting it back on. Casio G-Shock watches are water resistant.

Tips & Warnings

• The more often you clean a white Casio G-Shock watch, the easier and faster the process will be. Multiple layers of grease and grime built up over months of wear take a good deal of time and effort to fully remove.

Ever wondered who started it all with Casio?

Casio was established in April 1946 by Tadao Kashio, an engineer specializing in fabrication technology. Kashio's first major product was the yubiwa pipe, a finger ring that would hold a cigarette, allowing the wearer to smoke the cigarette down to its nub while also leaving the wearer's hands free. Japan was impoverished immediately following World War II so cigarettes were valuable, and the invention was a success.

After seeing the electric calculators at the first Business Show in Ginza, Tokyo in 1949, Kashio and his younger brothers used their profits from the yubiwa pipe to develop their own calculators. Most of the calculators at that time worked using gears and could be operated by hand using a crank or using a motor (see adding machine). Kashio possessed some knowledge of electronics, and set out to make a calculator using solenoids. The desk-sized calculator was finished in 1954 and was Japan's first electro-mechanical calculator. One of the central innovations of the calculator was its adoption of the 10-key number pad; at that time other calculators were using a "full keypad", which meant that each place in the number (1s, 10s, 100s, etc...) had nine keys. Another innovation was the use of a single display window instead of the three display windows (one for each argument and one for the answer) used in other calculators.

In 1957 Casio released the Model 14-A, sold for 485,000 yen,^[2] the world's first all-electric compact calculator, which was based on relay technology. 1957 also marked the establishment of Casio Computer Co. Ltd.

In the 1980s, its budget electronic instruments and home keyboards gained huge popularity. The company also became well known for the wide variety and innovation of its wristwatches. It was one of the earliest manufacturers of quartz crystal watches, both digital and analog. It also began selling calculator watches during this time. It was one of the first manufacturers of watches that could display the time in many different time zones and of watches with temperature, atmospheric-pressure, altitude, and even GPS position displays.

A number of notable digital cameras firsts have been made by Casio, including the first consumer digital camera with an LCD screen, the first consumer 3 megapixel camera, the first true ultra-compact model, and the first digital camera to incorporate ceramic lens technology.
