What is Egon holding? I assume its a tiny calculator? Sine he is showing Ray results from his calculations of interests rates.

I've wondered about this myself as well. I never could I.D. it but I figured it was one of those credit card sized calculators from the late 70s like the Casio LC-78 but a bit thicker like the Edmund Scientific.

Almost makes me think of an old wrist calculator with the wrist band removed.

Nope, I think it is more square...

Maybe that will help a bit. I want to know too. :cool:

Hope there's a fan who can tell me what make of calculator Spengler has in the first movie.thank you

I thought it was more square too but watch the way he holds it. In the pictures the angles make it seem smaller than it is.

There's a discussion open for this already:

There are different models, shapes, colors, sizes of wrist calculators. The one I posted was just an example.

Here's another.

In the first pic you post, you can see him flipping the switch on the side. Look at th epics I posted you can see similar switches.

It does look like the Edmund Scientific 1945 model but it would need to be smaller..

I'm thinking it's the Ragen Microelectronic Calculator:

What an interesting thread! I love these wrist calculators

I think its a Casio Micro Mini.

It's about the right size.

And it does have the black stripe on the side the black circle in the back.

But according to this site http://www.casio-calculator.com/Museum/ByCategory/ByCategoryMicro-mini.html there are several different versions, so I don't know which version to narrow it down to.

Some one help me confirm this.

Very cool ID, good eye. I'll have to add that to my list of eBay searches now!

I followed the link and browsed the other styles, this one with a flip-top lid would be pretty cool as well...

In keeping with Egon's description in the original script as a 'New Wave Mr. Spock', the resemblance to a Star Trek communicator is nifty.
