Casio Computer Co., Ltd. Announces New Commemorative Calculator Models
TOKYO, April 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Casio Computer Co., Ltd. has unveiled the MS-20UC-J commemorative calculator models featuring traditional Japanese motifs and the Comfy JT-200T to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Casio calculators.
This year marks 60 years since the introduction of the Model 001, Casio’s first electronic desktop calculator, in 1965. The Model 001 was the world’s first calculator with a seven-digit constant memory dial and storage function, catering to the needs of professional users.
The new MS-20UC-J series is based on the user-friendly MS-20UC model, perfect for daily use. Each model showcases traditional Japanese patterns that have been cherished in Japan for centuries:
– MS-20UC-JRD (red Asanoha)
– MS-20UC-JBU (blue Seigaiha)
– MS-20UC-JWE (white Takekago)
These three patterns have been symbols of luck in Japan for generations.
In addition, Casio is introducing the sleek Comfy JT-200T design calculator, featuring a simple design with a strategically placed solar panel for optimal functionality. Made with eco-friendly materials resistant to visible scratches, the Comfy JT-200T ensures long-term use.
Developed in honor of the 60th anniversary of Casio calculators, the Comfy JT-200T emphasizes essential elements for long-term use and will be available continuously, not as a limited anniversary edition.
Casio calculators are now distributed in over 100 countries, with total shipments exceeding 1.8 billion units. Since June 2023, Casio has adopted paper packaging, reducing plastic usage by approximately 81% and promoting global recycling efforts.
To commemorate the 60th anniversary of Casio’s first electronic desktop calculator, the Model 001, a special website has been launched under the theme “Count on Casio Calculators, Now and Forever.” Throughout the year, Casio will not only release new products but also develop initiatives for customers to experience.
Please note that these products may not be available in certain countries.
