The A140WE-2ADR is Casio's newest Vintage digital — a June 2026 release that rethinks the classic rectangular silhouette with softer contours and a navy blue sunray dial that gives a digital face a depth and shimmer usually reserved for analog watches. Chrome-plated resin case with a rounded bezel top, stainless steel multi-row bracelet with vertical hairline finishing on each link, and a digital LCD sitting behind the sunray surface. The contrast between the metallic sunray texture and the crisp digital segments is the design idea at the centre of the A140 — digital information, analog-watch finishing.
Module 3298 is a simple, dedicated digital platform: 1/100-second stopwatch with elapsed, split, and 1st–2nd place modes, daily alarm with hourly time signal, electro-luminescent backlight (blue glow), auto-calendar, and 12/24-hour format. No Bluetooth, no world time, no countdown timer — intentionally stripped back. The standout spec is the seven-year battery life on a CR2016, the longest in the Casio Vintage lineup. At 39 × 36.8 × 10.4 mm and 60 grams, the A140 splits the difference between the compact AQ-230 and the wider AQ-240 — a well-balanced mid-size that sits neatly on both smaller and larger wrists. Self-adjustable clasp, no tools required.

Why You'll Love It
- The navy blue sunray dial is the centrepiece — a finishing technique typically found on analog watches, applied here behind a digital LCD. The radiating highlights shift as light moves across the surface, giving the digital face a depth and richness that flat matte dials don't have. It makes a digital watch feel more considered, more intentional.
- Seven-year battery life on a CR2016 — the longest in the Casio Vintage lineup. Set the time once, wear it for seven years. No solar panel to manage, no Bluetooth to pair, no app to install. This is as close to zero-maintenance as a watch gets.
- The rounded bezel top is a subtle but distinctive design detail. Where most Casio Vintage rectangles have flat, angular bezels, the A140 softens the edges with gentle curves that catch light differently and make the case sit more comfortably on the wrist. The result is a watch that reads retro from a distance but feels contemporary up close.
- The multi-row stainless steel bracelet has vertical hairline finishing on each link — fine parallel lines that add texture and catch light without being shiny. It's a level of surface detail that most Casio Vintage bracelets don't have, and it gives the bracelet a quiet sophistication that elevates the overall look.
- At 39 × 36.8 mm, the A140 is wider than the AQ-230 (29.8 mm) but narrower than the A168 (38.6 mm case width). It hits a mid-size sweet spot that works on both smaller and larger wrists without feeling too dainty or too chunky.
- The EL backlight glows blue — matching the navy sunray palette. It's the first Casio Vintage with a backlight that colour-coordinates with the dial instead of defaulting to green or white.
