This decal is for the original chrome-plated cased DBC-610. See other listing for the black resin cased DBC-61 decal.
Like all Casio membrane-keypad'ed watches of that era, they suffered one flaw.
The decal layer of the keypad fades and cracks and becomes unreadable.
As an owner and designer I decided to re-author the artwork to match the font style and colours of the original decal, then, have laser printed on professional polyester backing, then over-laminated with an additional clear polyester layer to create a Scratch Resistant, self adhesive, long lasting solution to the problem.
This will not fix non-functional keys. This premium decal brings back the original look and value of the DBC-610 watch.
See pictures.
These replacement self adhesive long lasting polyester, laser printed decals replace the worn, cracked, faded or gone keypad decals of the vintage Casio membrane keypads.
Graphics re-manufactured faithful to original details and colours. For use with Casio Module 676, check back of watch for module number.
You will receive one newly manufactured, matt-laminated, Trimmed, self adhesive decal plus some excess adhesive polyester for use as mentioned below, plus instructions.
The watches are not included, they are for illustrative purposes only.
Use IPA alcohol or methylated spirit to clean the surface before fixing new decal, to ensure good adhesion.
See this excellant You Tube page to see a DBC-61 restoration using this type of decal:

Do Not Remove grey pad layer - seen in last picture - these are the contacts needed to operate the keys!
I include extra adhesive polyester as either blank area or additional decal in order to prime the surface to ensure good adhesion of final decal.
Simply use the additional adhesive label to press on and remove from the keypad surface, do this several times to remove any contamination after cleaning the keypad as mentioned. This will create a tackiness on the surface to make a much more permanent fixing.
Practice lining up the top edge of decal with the correct position on the keypad.
Peel the decal backing away only once you are happy that the surface is de-greased and dust free.
Ensure that you have the top edge of the decal straight with the keypad position, then press firmly down.
Bring that vintage calculator watch back into circulation with a bright fresh decal, either to use again or to tidy up for selling.
The value of these vintage watches are increasing massively.
This method does not destroy the original keypad, so at a later date, if you decide to sell with original faded and cracked decal, the new decal can be carefully removed.
The badly aged keypad decal destroys any pride of ownership.
Look at the before and after pictures, improve yours now.
Please check that your watch model is one of the above mentioned as there are different model decals, other types listed soon.
Please note that this is a decal and will not repair functionality of damaged keys.
