BG-1223G-7VDR MSG-162CG-9VDR
TOKYO, September 20,2006 — Casio Computer Co., Ltd., announced today several new models in its Baby-G® Sweet Poison series of casual wristwatches for women. These new watches exude an active, sexy image, with the rich gold accents lending a real sense of presence.

Wristwatches in the Sweet Poison range come equipped with the shock resistance and water resistance that are expected features of a Baby-G. With their highly individual use of color, any one of these watches makes a great fashion accessory, and they are popular among fashion-conscious young women in their early 20s.

Today’s newly introduced Baby-G Sweet Poison watches feature a composite design, with a successful blend of metal and resin materials. Designed to create an atmosphere that is not only casual but also striking and sexy, the new models use gold design elements around the bezel and the display, as well as on the band and elsewhere. Four of the new models impart an impressive golden sparkle to the wearer’s wrist, and they can easily be worn as fashion accessories. As with all Baby-G watches, the new models boast a great set of features and functions. Among these is a 48-city world time display for great convenience when traveling overseas, as well as a 1/100 second stopwatch, an alarm and a countdown timer.

In addition to the four watches featuring gold accents, two of the new watches in the Sweet Poison series feature silver accents and a design that makes the LCD shine like jewelry, and the other emphasizes black. The complete new model lineup is outlined below.
