Relojes de Pulsera Casio Casio Classic

I'd been wearing a traditional wind after my old W59 started malfunctioning (you could take it out of the case and set it, but if you pressed any of the buttons while it was in the case, the display would disappear), because I'd looked at newer models and either thought them too bulky (most ladies' watches seem to dainty for me, but men's watches are too bulky) or needlessly pricey. But after I had to reset my wind three times in a four-hour period, I finally gave up and ordered another W59. The buttons/modes makes sense, I can swim with it if I want to, and I've got the stopwatch I like (very useful, that). The only thing I can fault it for is not having that strong of a lamp, but I haven't found any other watches that can do any better (Illuminator included). Curiously enough, this new lamp is green--which sort of makes sense, but was unexpected. I don't know why the old one started acting up--I only wore it near-continuously for 22 years, through two battery replacements and five watchbands.

I really only wanted a watch that looked good enough for daily wear and was easy to read. I don't really use the alarm feature, so I can't comment on that. With those limitations here is the Good: The watch looks nice and simple. (It won't scream "rich" if that is what you are after, but it is clean cut and has elegant simplicity.) The contrast of the LCD against the background is good for my old eyes and the time display is large enough I can read without my reading glasses. It is easy to set (I could figure it out without the instructions). The band is large enough for a big man's wrist, but easily adjustable at home to my small wrist. The Bad, for me, is that the light for night viewing doesn't illuminate the entire time area making it hard for me to read at night with old eyes and no glasses. Overall, I like it and feel it was well worth the money for my use.

This is the 5th watch I have had of this type. I started wearing this style of watch on a daily basis back in the spring of 1985 and have fallen in love with it. If I had only one complaint it would be that the battery cannot be replaced when it's finished - when the battery dies the watch is done. It's lightweight and has a large enough screen to see the numbers at night, with the light button depressed. I've tried others digital watches, but they only last 1-2 weeks. This style lasts me years - and it's very inexpensive. Somewhere, on an Internet watch review site, they stated that this type of Casio was the #1 watch worn by men in Japan and I can understand why: inexpensive, functional, reliable and acceptable. The style and use must have something going for it - Casio has been making them for over 30 years and there's a lot of competition for watches on the open market.

I first bought one of these Cassio watches with a white face (not the gold face of this model) at Walmart. It seems like there are three versions of this watch with different faces. It does not have an annoying "date" that is wrong, or calls for attention every month. After a few years, the plastic band broke. I cut the other side to the same length, replaced the battery and hung it in the kitchen as my only reliable time keeper. I am on my third battery -- about five years now. This model has a gold face which I prefer for its looks. Of all the expensive gold, automatic, chronometer, and Swiss watches I have, this is the one that is easiest to wear, and it is inexpensive. It does not require expensive service, other than a battery. It is remarkably light weight and survives a dip in the kitchen sink.

I love this watch!. In fact, this is the third one I've purchased over the past 20 years! The timer and stopwatch are so handy for cooking and many other tasks, and I use the alarm to remind me to take my meds every day. It is easy to set the time and new alarm time. The second watch, which just broke the little piece connecting it to the bracelet, sat outdoors in rain and freezing temperatures under my deck for over a year and still worked perfectly when I finally found it. I don't care for a clip-on bracelet style, however, so I substitute an flexible, expandable one that I can slip over my wrist easily. And I recommend having a professional change the batteries, which last about 5 years.

The watch has a large time display, great for "older" eyes. The resin band is comfortable, should fit larger wrists, and includes a raised "stop" near the end so it will not slip out of the retainer. [Note, though, that resin bands have a history of breaking, especially if cinched tight.] Casio states 50M water resistance, although I have not tested that. You should be able to swim with this watch. Very good time accuracy. For this price, I would have liked see a countdown timer (in addition to the stopwatch function) and multiple alarms (has only 1). Other Casio watches. such as the F201, include these functions at lower cost, although with a somewhat smaller display and no water resistance specification.

I bought this watch as a daily beater for work, and have been extremely happy with it so far. I actually LIKE the watch! It is a lot nicer than I thought it would be. I purchased it from the Casio store on eBay for just under $14, which is a KILLER deal! I have even received a few compliments on it! I never expected that for a $14 watch! It features a bi-directional dive bezel, which is common on more expensive watches. The only negative is that the lume is poor at best. But again, it is sub $14 dollar watch! If you are rough on watches, I highly recommend this watch. It can take the abuse!

Think of this watch as a modern F-91W. It's a tremendous watch for the price... BUT it's been updated. With a 41mm case, it is the perfect Goldilocks size: not too big and not too little. The LCD numbers are larger than smaller Casio watches, but they also seem a bit crisper and clearer as well. The watch doesn't have electroluminescence (EL), but the way they've implemented the LED light is genius. The screen reverses / goes negative making the time incredibly easy to see. So whether you're a watch lover looking for an inexpensive and fun addition to your collection or you're a super practical person who wants maximum utility, this is one for you.

I was looking for an inexpensive red watch and I had narrowed my search down to a Phobos Nymph or a red Casio G-Shock 5600 when I found this watch for under $20. The Illuminator is less expensive than a G-Shock, and it is also a better fit for my small wrist. The watch is easy to set up and has the usual high level of Casio reliability. My only complaint is that the case and band are made of smooth, slippery plastic. I would have preferred a finish with a little more texture and less shine, but that is a minor gripe compared to the overall function and value of the watch.

After over 60 years of owning and wearing a watch on a daily basis, I finally bought my very first digital watch. Since Casio is the acknowledged leader I couldn't think of a better place to start. I have larger than average wrists and this one is an easy fit with a comfortable band. The larger characters are easier to read and the illumination is very good. I think I'll buy another one with the grey face instead of amber just to see which I like best. It keeps near perfect time when set by and compared to our national standard. I'm a happy owner.

This watch was listed as a mans diver, but in fact should have been listed as a teen or younger watch. It's actually too small for a large man such as myself (6'6" 300 lbs). The description was stated as it was luminous, when in fact it is luminous for less than one minute. If the face of the watch is subjected to a direct source of light ( a spot light or a strong flashlight) the numerals would show as luminous, but normal daylight would not cause it to be luminous for longer than 30 seconds How can the luminosity be safely useful for a diver/snorkeler when in fact luminosity is needed for, sometimes hours. Therefore, as far as I'm concerned I wasted my money. I'd send it back but I'm not going to spend good money after bad. I'll sell it at a yard sale for 10.00 or so. Ebay and their Consumer Protection Dept. should investigate this issue. This is a very unsatisfied. consumer.

Not worth sending back. Purchased for 12.00 bucks free shipping. Rrstock fee 5%. I was expecting a mens size watch, instead it wont even go around my wrist, the face of the watch is small maybe an inch across and the same in length. It honestly resembles a womens watch or a childs watch. My daughter put it on shes 14, average size and she was able to het around her wrist but on the sexond to last setting. Ridiculous. The night light is useless. Easy to set up, date time. Basic functions and they work as they should. Great for a younger boy or girl with very small wrists. Not a good fit for an averaged size or large man.

I love Casio watches and have a number of them. I am sure the performance of this one will be good, however, the looks and fit were a disappointment. The face of the watch is not as long as I anticipated and the analog portion is not easy to read. The digital portion is very small and a little awkward. The watch is also thicker than I anticipated which makes the fit less than ideal. I should have looked closer....my fault!

Listen to the rest of these reviews, this watch is fake, and much lower quality than a real Casio (the links have cracks, the Casio imprint on the latch is off, stamped as "Made in Malaysia" while real Casios are made in China, band is inflexible and spacing between links is uneven). Yeah it's cheap, and we'll see how long it lasts, but I wish I would have bought a real one.

I purchased this figuring the bad reviews were just manufacturing mistakes on Casio's part. This is definitely a fake watch though. My links are bent and the paint on the watch face came already scratched. The band is far lower in quality than even a $15 Casio. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra $15 to get a legitimate watch instead of wasting your money on this.
