Casio Wave Ceptor

The former top model of the Wave Ceptor series: Casio WV-100D Casio WV-200DE

The Wristwatches of the Wave Ceptor product line from Casio consist exclusively of radio clocks, the display of which is partly digital, partly analogue, partly of both types. With the introduction of the WV-100D in 2004 Casio positioned itself on the market of radio clocks. In continental Europe distributed watches receive mostly the time signal DCF77 from Mainflingen near Frankfurt am Main. Newer models (starting from 2006), e.g. the WV-200DE can also receive time signals from other stations, such as the Japanese JJY or the American WWV, which can be automatically searched for or explicitly selected by the watch.

Models equipped with a solar module are increasingly being offered in which the button cell does not have to be replaced (practically) despite the relatively high current consumption due to frequent radio signal reception. These include, for example, the LCW-M models, which have been marketed since 2011 under the name of Lineage. This is a small battery for the solar panels, which extracts the solar cells from excess energy. The energy of the fully charged battery corresponds to a duration of about 6 months in dark.
