Casio Arabic Dial watches: all original models.

If you are looking for a Casio watch with an original and unique dial, you will probably turn to an "arabic dial". By this we mean a watch displaying an index with "oriental" Arabic numerals because let's remember, the term "Arabic numerals" would rather correspond to the numbering system that we are used to using, i.e. say "1, 2, 3, 4...". The term "Indo-Arabic" would therefore be the most appropriate to talk about this numbering system, but popular culture has meant that these watches have taken the name " Arabic Dia l" which is a name that speaks to the greatest number of people. people.

This unique series is exclusively distributed in the Middle East, which is why you will never see it in stores in Europe or elsewhere. It is no longer produced today, which makes it extremely complicated to find anywhere in the world.

At PSB WATCHES, you only find authentic and original watches. In our online store, no "mods", nor "customs" or other fantasies which are most of the time barely disguised counterfeits which use very poor quality components. In other words, all the models available on our site are official models, which are designed, manufactured and distributed by the Casio brand.

By learning a little about the different existing models, you quickly realize that there are a multitude of references and possible configurations: leather bracelet, metal bracelet, smooth bezel, fluted bezel, black dial, white dial.. .

This is why we would like to guide you in your choice of Arabic Dial watch, by listing all the official references of the Japanese brand Casio and explaining their specificities.

To date, around fifteen certified models have been identified, which are the only ones to be authentic:

Men's models (MTP):

• MTP-1215A-1B3 / MTP-1215A-7B3
• MTP-1215SG-1B3 / MTP-1215SG-7B3
• MTP-1302D-1B3 / MTP-1302D-7B3
• MTP-1302L-1B3 / MTP-1302L-7B3
• MTP-1302SG-1B3 / MTP-1302SG-7B3

Women's models (LTP):

• LTP-1215A-1B3 / LTP-1215A-7B3
• LTP-1302D-1B3 / LTP-1302D-7B3
• LTP-1302L-1B3 / LTP-1302L-7B3

All these references may seem incomprehensible at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it is very easy to decipher them and know the characteristics of the watches thanks to them. Generally, they are composed this way:

Gender (1) - series (2) - strap type (3) - dial color (4) - finish (5)

1 - The type of watch defines its size, because a women's watch indicated by the words "LTP" (L for "Ladies) is naturally smaller than an "MTP" model (M for "Men") due to the difference in wrist size between men and women.

2 - In the "Arabic Dial" range, only two series exist: the 1215 and the 1302. The main difference lies in the shape of the case and the bezel; The 1215 series adopts a simpler design with a fairly thin and refined case as well as an extension at the crown, while the 1302 series offers a more imposing and thicker model, with a fluted / grooved bezel reminiscent of the more experts in the Datejust and Day-Date models from Rolex.

3 - The type of bracelet is indicated just after the series of the watch. We find in this range the terms "L", "D", "A" or "SG", which define the exact type of bracelet installed there. The leather bracelets bear the letter L for "Leather" while the metal bracelets bear the letter A (chrome edges), D (chrome middle) or SG ("Silver & Gold) which is identical to D but with the chrome middle of golden color.

4 - For the color of the dial, it is the number 1 (black) or 7 (white, sometimes silver) which gives us the information.

5 - Finally, the simplest for the end, the term "B3" designates the "Arabic Dial" range with its very specific numbers. Generally speaking at Casio, this last number/letter specifies a specific variant or finish: type of numbers, type of index, etc.

Now that you know your lesson by heart, can you tell what an LTP-1302L-1B3 reference corresponds to? If you said a women's watch from the 1302 series with a leather strap, a black dial and Arabic numerals, you're right!
