CasioAW80 Series | Men’s Analog-Digital Watch | 50M Water Resistance | Multi Alarms | 100 SEC Stopwatch | Countdown Timer | World Map for World Time | LED Light | LC Display | 10 Year Battery

Great watch at the right price. Fits cleanly on my wrist and is lightweight and comfortable. I like the analog/digital dial and the color goes with anything.

This is a nice looking, very functional watch.

So I looked at watches for a year buying this one on Amazon. I had like three or four different wishlists goin, trying to narrow down my choices. I chose Casio because I have found their watches to be very durable, super long-lasting, and very reasonably priced. I also wanted something that looked somewhat dressy, so I finally settled on an analog face with steel band. I also like seeing the exact date on my watches, so I decided on the Ana/Digi configuration. I was considering others that display the date as a one digit number because they looked to be more attractive than this one online. However, upon realizing that I should really shop for a watch in person rather than online, I came upon all the models I was considering at Wal-Mart. The Casios that were priced at $30-$50 (the ones that looked nicer online) looked awful in person! They were really shiny, flimsy, and looked cheap, fake. Also, I don't like the one rolling digit date display on those because you have to keep on top of whether it is synchronized with the accurate number of days in the current month and make adjustments accordingly.To my absolute surprise, this model Casio looked very good in person! Amazon pics and reviews led me to believe that they looked like plastic and easily scratched. I have not found either of these to be true. It actually looks more expensive and impressive than the more expensive casios and there is a 10 year warranty on the battery. I'm gonna still have this $19 watch when I'm 50!? LOLI would have preferred the model with the blue face, but the majority of reviews said it looked more purple, and I mean - God forbid.. The face is a little larger than I would like it to be, but I have very small wrists, so most faces appear relatively large. Naturally, because of my small wrists, I had to have the stainless steel band adjusted. I learned that Wal-Mart actually offers to provide this service free of charge even if the watch is purchased elsewhere! I'm definitely not trying to advocate for Wal-Mart here, as they are an evil source of great power and wealth, but unfortunately I every penny counts on my budget. When I put the watch on, it fit perfectly. It had good weight, felt smooth, and wasn't pinching my arm hair, as most stainless steel links tend to do.I have no problem seeing the time in total darkness thanks to the glow in the dark hands in conjunction with the somewhat dim orange light. However, I cannot see the date in the dark. Oh well. I think I can wait to get into a lighted situation in order to know the date, and I usually know the date, if I care, by the time it gets dark each day, so I'll be ok. Many rwviews complain about the weak light. It's not too bad! Also, one must realize that in order to guarantee the preservation of battery power for a whole friggin' decade, one must make such small compromises. Although I do get it. I get addicted to those nice bright Indiglo-style watch lights and want to press it all the time! My guess is that those lights draw a good amount of power, because any watch I've owned with that loses the light power or all power in a relatively short amount of time compared to those without the glowing face feature. I imagine the LED technology that's coming out now might be able to remedy this problem.Anyway, it's a great daily watch. It's perfectly casual, comfortable, functional, and somewhat simple. I only set up the date display, the digital time (which toggles with the date display), and the analog time by adjusting the hands. There are many other features I will likely never use. There is a stopwatch, a timer, world time, daylight savings, and a bank where names and phone numbers can be stored. This is an old model. Most of us don't ever remember phone numbers anymore because we have our cell phones, and let's be honest, who wants to fiddle around with entering someone's name in their watch after just meeting them? Can you imagine? But I like that about Casio. If it aint broke, they don't change it! That's why we know we can count on the quality and durability of their products.

Best digital analog watch i own. How many Anaolog watches do u own that are digital as well? this thing has the standard 2 alarms plus the snz alarm as well and all the other usual casio stuff we all love casio for. Brightness on the watch could be better but its good enough. Weight on the wrist is light, you forget your even wearing it. I have average to bigger man size wrist and i really like this fit. Readability of the analog and digital side is very easy. As far as functionality I like to wear this watch whenever i wear a button up or anything with a collar , its more of a dress up watch.

This watch actually has impressive functionality, with three alarms, 30 city world time which is set completely separately to local time, normal stopwatch and also a countdown timer which unfortunately does not include seconds only minutes so you can't watch it actually counting down! I don't particularly like that but it's not as annoying as the almost useless backlight. I'm creeping through my 50s now and I do have vision issues with reading and stuff like that, plus weird light contrasts do not help the issue at all and hinder me further. Some people may not have quite the issue that I have with it but several other people have made comments on here about it. I've taken a shower with it several times and had absolutely no issues with water resistance although I still have yet to go swimming with it. Bear in mind that this watch very likely would have gotten a four if not for the backlight issue. Using the buttons and sequence and flipping through the menus can be a little bit tedious and there's a learning curve to it but it's really not that bad. After sitting down with it for half an hour or so I was able to use most functions without reading the manual further. One thing I really like about it is it has a memo function where you can save names and telephone numbers although it's not useful for saving passwords because it doesn't use special characters only letters and numbers from what I understand. I'm sure I'll eventually be using the memo function for something. One thing I was thinking it could be useful for is using your stopwatch multiple times in a certain scenario and then recording the results in your watch and then later writing down the recorded times to create averages at home with a calculator. I'm kind of annoyed about the backlight but I'm not going to send this otherwise very decent, light little watch back. I'm trying to be on the optimistic side that maybe I will eventually be able to work better with the backlight another thing about that is it only stays on for barely two seconds! And it's also not that glowing blue screen that you get with most Casio watches it seems like it has an LED bulb on either side of the watch that kind of illuminate things in a much more conventional way. The light is brightest on the sides and not in the middle where it needs to be. Your miles may vary with that, but that's just my experience. To be fair I put this watch somewhere between 3 and a 4, and if not for the backlight it would definitely have got a 4.
