The most notable brand is the Casio Databank series, though watches made by Timex were also popular. Most calculator watches contain only a few number of functions such as +, -, x, / and percents.

Sharp QT-8D Sharp QT-8D The Sharp QT-8D Micro Compet, a small electronic desktop calculator, was the first mass-produced calculator to have its logic circuitry entirely implemented with LSI ("large-scale integration") integrated circuits (ICs) based on MOS ("metal-oxide-semiconductor") technology. When it was introduced in late 1969, it was one of the smallest electronic calculators ever produced commercially. Previous electronic calculators had been about the size of a typewriter and had logic circuits built from numerous discrete transistors and diodes or small- to medium-scale ICs. The QT-8D's logic circuits were packed into just four LSI ICs. The QT-8D was released in Japan at a
