Casio got its latest cachet from Al Qaeda (and despite whatever people say about Toyota, they just love their Hilux, anyway, NASA clears Toyota's name also, if you still believe in NASA). Just like all the cheap skates around the world, the Al Qaeda loves a good cheap Japanese watch as much as anybody. The parting gift of choice for a bomb making session is said to be a cheap chic Casio wristwatch. 32 detainee reports make reference to the black Casio F-91W model while another 20 link detainees to a silver version A-159W. Black wins in the popularity contest while silver wins in the scarcity department. But rest assured both can and will land you in Guantanamo.via The Guardian.
