If the awkward phrasing of “transcend the upside down” gives you the impression that this corporate executive has (perhaps) not actually watched “Stranger Things” — be gentle. He’s presumably a busy guy who did not spend most of the pandemic day drinking in his underwear and bingeing Netflix like … some of us. 1980 Called. It Says You Can Have Its Watches In 1983, a young boy vanishes into thin air from a sleepy American midwest town.

Set in 1986, the hit Netflix mystery adventure series brings the 1980s to life — the perfect partner for the ever-popular, iconic Casio models that debuted in that iconic era. The A120WEST is based on the A120, which is part of Casio's line of retro vintage-inspired watches. This is perfect because Stranger Things is set in the Eighties and the A120 looks like it could have come from that era.

In that teased-hair, Day-Glo, acid-washed vein, consider the Casio A120WEST-1A.

The Timex Weekender is a classic collection by the brand. This is a popular line that has evolved and has had many different versions (see the current ones here). The ’80s and Casio are synonymous — so joining forces with Netflix on a Stranger Things collaboration timepiece was a natural fit,” said Tadashi Shibuya, vice president of Casio’s timepiece division, in a press release. “We are thrilled to bring fans a retro timepiece that will not only turn heads but also transcend the upside down.” My favorite feature is the ’80s-horror-novel-inspired “Stranger Things” font revealed (upside down, natch) after illuminating the watch face.
