Apparently, Casio fails to recognize that nowadays, most people don't really need a watch for timekeeping because they carry a smartphone that does time perfectly well.

I wear a cheap $5 Chinese made watch only because I use it to carry a backup of all my crucial data with me at all times, even in the shower. If something goes bump in the night, my data is always with me so all I need to worry about is my own personal safety.

Casio could easily and cheaply add this to their watches and instantly make them much more desirable in my opinion.

Is your data encrypted at rest? Someone could kill you and steal it very easily.
