Casio Men's Analog Reverse Bezel Sport Watch #MSY502D-2AV Review

Casio Men's Analog Reverse Bezel Sport Watch #MSY502D-2AVThis is a good, solid product with many features such as chronograph, alarm and 200 meters water resistant for which other manufacturers charge a lot more. I did qute a bit of research and did not see anyhing with the same features comparable in price.

I gave this watch 5 stars considering the ratio between its aspect/features vs. price. I would have given this watch a 4 star overall when compared with more expensive watches.

Pros:
- easy to read
- 200 m water resistant
- mineral crystal
- rotating bezel
- although not mentioned by the manufacturer the alarm dial can be used to show another time zone
- standard bracelet; relatively easy to remove link
- no scratches on the crystal and no major scratches on the bracelet after 3 month of normal wear
- accurate timekeeping

Cons
- a little too big and heavy - that could a pro for people with large wrists
- takes some effort to rotatate the bezel, doesn't have a coin edge type and it is slippery
- if you use the alarm to show another time zone (which I did) you can still use the alarm function, but for some reason only when you use the alarm this second time zone (alarm dial)is loosing up to a few minutes and becomes out-of-sync with the normal time zone; however if you only use the alarm dial only for another time zone and do not set the alarm the two time zones remain in sync; since the manufacturer doesn't mention anything about a second time zone this little nuissance doesn't bother me

Overall, after more that 3 months of wearing it I am still very happy with this watch.

Casio Men's Ana-Digi 10-Year Battery Watch #AW81-1A2V Review

Casio Men's Ana-Digi 10-Year Battery Watch #AW81-1A2VThe watch was great value and pretty stylish. I'm not planning on using the databank feature much as that's what cell phones are for these days but I do use world time occasionally and the count down timer is also.

After owning a few metal link band watches I had to bite the bullet and go back to a rubber strap to fit my skinny wrist better and it's the best move I've made.

The main downside of this watch is the useless LED backlighting. Remember thos eold watches your Dad used to have with the litlle ligh on the side that never illuminted anything. This is the same thing. Contrary to what some others have said the light is not bright enough to even light the analogue face let alone the digital.

Why anyone would go back to this old technology after the brilliant invention of electroluminesence is crazy, but it's a mistake Casio made with a few of their latest range.

Casio #DBC610A-1A Men's Vintage Stainless Steel Band 50 Telememo Calculator Watch Review

Casio #DBC610A-1A Men's Vintage Stainless Steel Band 50 Telememo Calculator WatchI have owned casio watches for about 35 years. They like all things get cheaper. The good points on this watch are, the 5 alarms, the spacious data storage, and the time accuracy. I need the alarms to help me remember when to take my blood pressure meds. They use to make the data bank without the calculator with 5 alarms that held 50 data numbers. That's what I had before this one. I really didn't want the calculator. The bad point is the watch case and band connection points are made of plastic. I play golf and like to leave my watch on. The watch band broke off after having it for about 6 months. Lucky thing for super glue. That's how I repaired it. My watch before this one broke in the same place where the pin sticks into the watch case my super glue didn't work good on it that's why I bought this watch.

Product Description:
Old school type calculator/databank from Casio which is very retro in design. First introduced in the late 1980s, this watch continues in production with the only change being a switch from orange to green nightlight of the old side lit variety. Great for those who prefer the old designs to the new!

Casio Men's Alarm Chronograph Digital Sport Watch #W96H-1AV Review

Casio Men's Alarm Chronograph Digital Sport Watch #W96H-1AVThis is a very nice watch. Large (about 7mm), easy to read time digits. 10 year battery. Date, day of the week and seconds always displayed. Backlight. And accurate to boot! An entirely satisfactory, basic, economical digital watch.

So then why only 3 stars?

The watchband. Its made of plastic (Casio calls it "resin"). Mine broke after a year and a half. The constant flexing back and forth just causes the plastic to "tear" at the point where it bends.

The watch has non-standard fittings for its band. The only way to replace the band is to buy an identical one from Casio. And that costs almost as much as the watch! Granted, that's not very much and you could almost look at this watch as a disposable, but it irks me that it looks like it could keep on going for years but for the cheesy band.

I think I'll go for one with a metal band next time.

Casio Men's Classic Analog Dive Watch #MDV301D-1AV Review

Casio Men's Classic Analog Dive Watch #MDV301D-1AVLove the watch . Nice looking , easy to use if you can understand the instructions which should be read very carefully and BE VERY CAREFUL TO READ COMPLETELY . The wrist band is easy to adjust if you go and buy the pin remover as advertised on Amazon ($9.00 or less)and go to Casio watch tech. support to understand how to do it . Wrist band adjustment should be put in with instructions with watch and show an illustration and one bad part that one customer wrote was the monthly adjustment ? We'll she was correct in that every month with less than 31 DAYS DOES NEED TO BE ADJUSTED ! It's not to difficult to do though . All-IN-All a good watch at a great price .
