Somewhere in the long history of watchmakers trying to pair the old pleasure of hands with the newer clarity of numbers, a single blurry photograph has surfaced from an anonymous enthusiast's account, hinting at two Casio watches the company has not yet chosen to reveal.

Two Unreleased Casio References Leak: Analog-Digital Takes on the Octagonal MTP-B195 Case
A decade of battery is a lot to fit into that depth.
So what actually leaked here?
Two references, the AMW-920L-1AV on a strap and the AMW-920D-1AV on a bracelet. They look like the octagonal MTP-B195 with a digital display added at 6 o'clock.
What's different from the MTP-B195?
The date window at 3 is gone. In its place the digital display shows day and time under the hands. The bezel, linen dial and markers look the same.
Before we go further, how solid is any of this?
Not very. It's one leaker on Instagram, and the image is blurry. He calls the specs unconfirmed himself.
The ten-year battery seems like the big claim.
It is. The MTP-B195 uses module 5361 at about three years, so this would need a different module.
And fitting it in is an open question. The case is expected to be close to 38 mm across and 8.3 mm thick, but that's the source's expectation, not a confirmed dimension.
Why does the AMW name matter?
AMW is the analog-digital family, with sporty models like the AMW-870. The MTP-B195 is a dressier Standard model. The leaker flags the mismatch too.
Right, and nobody has explained it. No price, no announcement, and December is only a reported date.
Il Polso
- A single blurry Instagram image has set watch fans buzzing over two Casio models that the company has never announced.
- The leaked specifications promise a ten-year battery, a claim that clashes with the roughly three-year module inside the watch they resemble.
- Fitting a digital display and a decade of power into a slim 8.3 mm case is seen as a demanding engineering puzzle.
- The model name AMW points to Casio's sporting family rather than the dressier line the octagonal case belongs to, leaving the logic unexplained.
- Everything hinges on one leaker's post, with no price, no official confirmation, and a December date that could still shift.
Somewhere in the long history of watchmakers trying to pair the old pleasure of hands with the newer clarity of numbers, a single blurry photograph has surfaced from an anonymous enthusiast's account, hinting at two Casio watches the company has not yet chosen to reveal. They appear to be built on an octagonal case already familiar to collectors, now carrying a digital readout where a date once sat, and they are said to arrive in December. Whether these are true glimpses of what is coming or simply the ripple of rumor, the questions they raise, about battery life, durability, and the meaning of a name, will remain open until the company speaks for itself.
A blurry picture posted by the account geesgshock has given watch enthusiasts their first look at two Casio models the company has not yet announced: the AMW-920L-1AV on a strap and the AMW-920D-1AV on a steel bracelet. Both are said to be coming in December.
The image suggests the octagonal MTP-B195, reworked as an analog-digital piece. The faceted bezel, the brushed linen dial, and the familiar markers carry over, but the date window at 3 o'clock has vanished, replaced by a digital readout at 6 that shows the day and time beneath the hands.
The leaker is careful to label the specifications as unconfirmed, yet they are striking: a mineral crystal, 50 meters of water resistance, an LED backlight, a timer, stopwatch, world time, and a ten-year battery. That last claim is the sharpest departure from the watch these resemble, which runs on a module rated for about three years. Packing a longer-lasting power source and a digital display into a case roughly 8.3 mm thick would be a considerable engineering feat.
The name adds another puzzle. AMW belongs to Casio's analog-digital family, typically sporting models, while the octagonal case comes from the dressier Standard line. Why it would be branded this way remains a mystery.
For now, Casio has said nothing, no price has surfaced, and the source image is too blurry to settle the matter. Everything, from the December timing to the specifications, rests on a single leaker's word until the company decides to speak.
A blurry image posted to Instagram by the leaker behind the account geesgshock has given watch fans their first look at two Casio models that the company has not announced. The references are the AMW-920L-1AV, shown on a strap, and the AMW-920D-1AV, shown on a steel bracelet. Both are said to be due in December.
What the image appears to show is the octagonal MTP-B195 reworked as an analog-digital watch. The faceted octagonal bezel and the brushed linen dial carry over from the existing model, along with the applied markers and the numerals at 12 and 6. One thing changes. The date window at 3 o'clock is gone, and a digital display now sits at 6, reading out the day and time beneath the hands.
The leaker is careful to call the specifications unconfirmed. By his account, the watches appear to carry a mineral crystal, 50 meters of water resistance, an LED backlight, a timer, a stopwatch, world time and a ten-year battery.
That last figure is the one that sets the pair apart from the watch they resemble. The MTP-B195 runs Casio's module 5361, which has a quoted battery life of around three years. A ten-year claim would mean the AMW-920 needs an entirely different module. The source expects the case dimensions to land close to those of the MTP-B195, which measures 38 mm across and 8.3 mm thick. Fitting a digital display and a decade of battery life into that depth is, as the report puts it, a lot to ask.
The naming is the other oddity, and the leaker flags it himself. AMW is Casio's analog-digital family, currently represented by sporting models such as the AMW-870. The octagonal MTP-B195 belongs to the dressier Casio Standard line. Why a watch built on that case would arrive as an AMW rather than an MTP is unclear.
Casio has not announced either reference, and no price has leaked. The source image is blurry, which limits how much can be read from it. Until Casio says something officially, the December timing, the specifications and the unusual model name all rest on a single leaker's post.
