This is a Casio BP-100 that I picked up recently from a guy on craigslist. He said that he got it as a gift years ago when he got diagnosed with hypertension, but never wore it because he wasn't a watch guy. It's practically NOS and has all the little bits such as the box, instruction booklet, cassette tape (for use instructions). It may be missing an outer sleeve, but I'm not 100% sure on that one. The band is in good shape which is cool because it is my understanding that dry rot can be an issue with 20 year old casio bands. The back light is crappy, but even that works.

I have not had a chance to really test out the heartrate and BP functions. As far as I have been able to discern it functions as a sort of two lead EKG where the back plate of the watch and your finger on the front of the watch allow for the HR and BP to be monitored. I can't imagine that it's the most accurate way to do a blood pressure, but it's neat at any rate. Other than these functions it has a lot of the standard Casio stuff (stopwatch, Countdown timer, alarms, hour chime, perpetual calendar).

I love vintage casio and have been searching for some pieces locally for about the past year or so. I always get a little envious of people posting their sweet yard sale and thrift store finds. This is my first. I paid fifty bucks for it. One of the only problems is that since it's in such nice shape I'm often afraid to wear it because I don't want to bang it up. Happy hunting, everyone!

After the success of the JP-100W pulsecheck, Casio put that concept on steroids and released this model in 1993. (Or was it 1992?) It claims to measure not only the heart rate, but also the blood pressure! * (Just a note, Casio's sequel to the JP-100W was the JP-200W, which was released in 1992. The BP-100 is not a direct descendant of the JP series watches, but certainly builds on that technology.) Unlike other Casio watches of its time, this model came in a custom designed box.

Not only that, it was sold in different custom package versions. I have seen a long slender cardboard box version as well as the version shown here. Removing the plastic shrink wrap and outer sleeve reveals a plastic case. Opening that case reveals the watch seated on a red velvet-like tray. In that tray, you will find an instructional audio cassette tape. Since I got this watch in 2008, I didn't have a cassette tape player to listen to the tape. I wonder what it sounds like!

And if you lift that tray, you will find not one, but TWO manuals. The blue manual is the abbreviated version that briefly covers the blood pressure functions, whereas the black one covers the entire watch in detail. Download the essentials bob dylan zip free. The special packaging and redundant instructional material leads me to believe that Casio intended this watch to be used by people unfamiliar with technology.
