Casio is a name that’s been around forever! My mom loved picking out watches for my dad and she always selected Casios. I still remember the silver watch that he wore. It had a thick-linked band and he had it for years. Casio’s timeless watches can be worn for any occasion and their products have come a long way. Talk about cutting edge! Some of their watches are solar powered, pick up radio signals and they’re still look great! Casio also has an expensive collection of timepieces that offers something for everyone.
We’re celebrating dads early and Casio is offering one of their new Waveceptor Timepieces to one lucky That’s IT Mommy reader. Just in time for Father’s Day. Check out the stats on this watch!
Waveceptor description: With Casio’s non-stop, self-adjusting Waveceptor Timepieces, you don’t have to worry about replacing batteries because they’re Solar Powered. Now you’ll have the confidence of always knowing the correct time via Atomic Timekeeping Technology.
