You can still find them on Ebay. Search
for Casio Film Watch. Just looked and today there are none but there usually are some.

I had a pela film watch years ago and it was my favouritest watch I’d ever had. After the glass cracked it eventually died and I’m DESPERATE for another one- one of the square ones. Does anyone know where I can get one now- new/2nd hand/whatever?

I have an FS00 I bought in Tokyo for $10 on the street, love it. Warning though: there are actually Chinese fakes of the FS01s (maybe other models) for sale. I wasted $30 each buying two from a place in New Jersey on the net. They’re thicker, missing a button, have no backlight (even though it says “Illuminator” on the faceplate). Just Chinese copies. So just be real careful. Love my original FS00 though. Got the battery replaced a year ago maybe? Wasn’t that much.

There is currently(3-15-08) an FS-01 on EBay for 2 pounds. Do a search for casio film watch on EBay and it below the 3 auction watches. Looks like a cheap way to get your band.

I receive a casio FS-01 as a gift, and really like it. With over use of it the band is torn. Do you know I can order more of the bands?????

Your FS-00 can be brought back to life with a 1616 battery instead of the pricy
1612. It is slightly thicker so you should “bow” the backplate slightly. dont forget to short the contact points to reset the watch.1616’s are cheap. I have 2 FS-00’s running with them. I bought the 1616’s on Ebay for less than $4 w/ shipping. good luck- Stew

strange, i’ve owned a couple of film watches (FS-04) and battery replacement has been a fiver each time, probably because they are more common models?!
