The AQ-230A-7AMQYDF is the original silver AQ-230 — the variant that set the template for every colour and finish that followed. Chrome-plated resin case, silver-tone stainless steel bracelet, silver dial, silver hands and bar indexes — a monochrome metallic palette with no colour accents to compete for attention. It is the most neutral, most versatile, and most frequently gifted version of Casio's compact analog-digital rectangle.
The AQ-230 lineage traces back to Casio's 1982 Janus watch — the first Casio combination model to feature both analog hands and an LCD, originally designed to pair with more refined, dressed-up attire. Module 5154 carries that same philosophy: two analog hands for hours and minutes, a digital sub-display at 6 o'clock for day, date, and seconds, dual time, 1/100-second stopwatch, and a daily alarm with hourly time signal. At 38.8 × 29.8 × 8.1 mm and 47 grams, it sits flat on the wrist with no bulk — the 8.1 mm profile slides under any cuff. Self-adjustable stainless steel clasp, no tools required. SR920W battery, approximately three-year life.

Why You'll Love It
- The all-silver AQ-230 is the variant that goes with everything — no colour commitment, no themed finish, just monochrome metallic that pairs equally with a white tee, a blazer, or a dress. It's the reason this colourway has remained the most gifted and most consistently stocked version in the AQ-230 range since the model launched.
- The design lineage goes back to 1982. Casio's Janus watch was the first combination model to put analog hands and an LCD on the same dial, and it was designed specifically to work with dressed-up attire. The AQ-230 inherits that DNA — it reads as jewellery more than gadget, which is why it crosses over from casual to formal without friction.
- At 29.8 mm wide and 47 grams, this is one of the most compact watches Casio makes. It wears like a bracelet — flat against the wrist, no overhang, no catching on sleeves. The 8.1 mm profile is thinner than most stack bracelets, which makes it a natural candidate for layering with other wrist accessories.
- The dual-display layout puts analog hands for hours and minutes over a digital sub-display at 6 o'clock for day, date, and seconds. Both are always visible without switching modes — you get the glanceability of analog and the precision of digital in one compact face.
- Self-adjustable clasp means you can size the bracelet at home without tools — no waiting for a store visit. The band fits wrists from 140 mm to 205 mm, covering most sizes straight out of the box. Complimentary strap adjustment is also available at any City Chain outlet.
- Three-year battery on an SR920W. No apps, no charging, no pairing — this is a set-and-forget watch that runs quietly and reliably without asking anything from you.
