The Casio 56QS-38, widely known as the "Time-Scan", is a rare, vintage digital chronograph watch released by Casio in 1980.
It is highly prized by collectors for its early, experimental "hybrid" display that attempts to blend digital precision with an analogue feel.
Key Features & Design
- The "Time Scan" Display: The defining trait of this model is an outer liquid crystal (LCD) track wrapping around the digital time display. This track digitally blocks out segments to simulate a sweeping analogue seconds hand.
- Retro Construction: The watch sports a compact, 35.5mm chromed/stainless steel square case, an 18mm lug width, and a matching stainless steel bracelet band.
- Core Functions: Driven by a vintage quartz module, it includes a daily alarm, digital chronograph (stopwatch), a basic micro-light backlight, and an auto-calendar tracking the date and day.
