Casio Alarm Chronograph - LCD digital and Analogue - A201

Another old digital watch today, and this one is from 1981.

The Casio A201 was an interesting LCD model in that it had analogue and digital displays on the LCD. In the digital display mode, the watch shows day and date on the top row, with time (including seconds) on the bottom row. When switched to the analogue mode with the bottom right button, the seconds numbers remain, but all of the other information is replaced with an LCD display dial. On this display, there is a long hand (2 segments long, 1 segment wide) for the minutes, and a short hand (1 segment long, 2 segments wide) for the hours.

Other modes in the 103 module include a digital stopwatch, alarm, and an 'analogue' countdown timer.
