CASIO CMD-40

[@ryandavis7011]

I borrowed one of these from a friend that was Japanese, and used it at school to keep stopping a vcr when the teacher was trying to play a boring educational video. Good times :P

[@matt_ohern]

Used mine for the same reason. Me and my buds were cracking up.

Amazing video. I needed this. I just found this in mumbai at a vintage watch shop. Picking it up tomorrow.

[@gizmo1252000]

the watch has codes for goldstar ,or as most younger people today ,would know it as LG . goldstar changed there name in the mid 90,s to LG

Believe this is the CMD-40-1, released in 1995. The CMD series includes the CMD-20, CMD-30, and CMD-40, released between 1994 and 1996. There are a few different colorways of each.

I bought mine new in 1995 when I was 14. God did I feel like god at school! I need a new strap for it.

It's great to remember the old days! I just have a question. Is the CMD-40 water resistant, like splash proof, etc.?

[@metromodernism]

@@Francisco-jr1bl No

The manual you found refers back to an earlier 1980s Casio model with the same functions. The silver version with the stainless steel wristband is preferable to me. I still wear it when I'm in nerdy mode. Yes, it can store A/C remote control signals as well as those for the car & garage doors and so many other infrared devices. Smart devices can't do that!

I knew someone with one of these, of my memories correct he had a really ductless heat pump that it worked with. Anyways I remembered that when people started making a commotion about the flipper hacking tool which seemed to be doing similar tasks but in a giant form factor decades later, I know it has way more to it though.

I have one, back in the day I learn the code of in the key of my mother's Renault Clio and could lock/unlock the car remotely. Also at highschool when we were taken to watch some video my mates will always request me to eject the vhs or fast forward, was great fun.

[@lennyscheapwatchchannel2099]

I would've killed to have one of these back in high school!

[@Andronk]

I could unlock my Grandad's Citroen BX with mine. Got into plenty of mischief with it at school, and also messing about in Dixons turning off all the TVs in the shop... Great fun!

[@LaithKodi]

Holy Shit! I never thought about trying that on a car! I have mine setup for the TV then the buttons for the sat box!

[@cowondeso]

Hi Bro, nice review! Im wondering on this type of CMD40 which has the keypad not all same colored, is it (keypad and screen) also Glow in the Dark? (Offcourse after the watch received much source of lights)

[@matt_ohern]

I had this in junior high in mid 90's and used to prank teachers and tv salesmen with this watch. They couldn't figure out how the tv channels were changing, etc.

[@freakyfreddy77]

For sure going to pick one up!

[@dannyho9076]

got mine made in korea but number button cant used,why?

[@little_astro581]

I have some questions : 1. Does it work with an air conditionner/lcd projector ? 2. How to learn a tv code if the manual doesn’t show the tv code Thank you so much

[@lennyscheapwatchchannel2099]

Theoretically it SHOULD work with anything that sends/receives an IR signal. In the video I show you how to set the watch to a "learn" function so you can make it talk whatever language your TV does if it's not already programmed in the watch.

[@little_astro581]

Lenny’s Cheap Watch Channel thank you so much. I just have one question if you could help me, my watch wouldnt turn on so i gave it to a specialist to change the battery and it didnt turn on i kept it another day and he didnt find the source of the problem, any idea why this happened ?

[@Realism91]

I'm pretty sure I had a friend who used it for his air conditioner but it must have been 25 years ago so many I made that up in my memory. I wonder about garage doors and things.

[@adolfomarques4612]

Try code( 29)

[@Milolucerox]

What happens with this code?

[@sol3379.]

Code 29 is LG tv
