Summary: GREAT WATCH..BAND SUX and NOT REPLACEABLE
Comment: This watch took a BEATING..it still works i have it in my workshed right now just to tell the time as i never wear a watch when in there. Im not joking this watch has been slammed bashed and constantly in and out of water it still functions perfectly...10 year battery and i have no doubts becuase i bought this watch 7 years ago and its still going strong.
HOWEVER THE BAND IS HORRIFIC...i am amazedi got about 6 years out of the band...i suppose thats some kind of a record. I would have gotten a new band for it...but nobody carries one..
just cannot be replaced.
So i have to give it 2 stars due to the band not being replaceable ..on a watch that is desigend to last this long...you should make the band able to endure just as long.

Summary: It keeps time
Comment: This Casio is a very inexpensive watch that lacks the features I was looking for (my own fault).
Pros: The good news is that it keeps time.
It features dual time, a stopwatch with the usual lap timer, will light up at the push of a botton and has an alarm.
Cons: Plastic band that is non replacable unless maybe you can order one from Casio. So if it breaks, replace the watch. The alarm is useless unless you are in a very quite environment.
It does not have a countdown alarm which was a feature I was looking for.
That was my fault however.
In my defense of stupidity I have found that most watches on the market today do not include this feature in their discriptions but is an included feature.
All in all, if you just want a inexpensive watch to wear to work, this will work.

Summary: OK, but ...
Comment: This 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 in addition to, of course, the time. Backlight is old-school LED and *not* Indiglo blue. And very accurate to boot! A completely 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 causes the plastic to crease and then disintegrate 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, to be replaced every 18 months, but it annoys me that it could easily keep on going for *years* were it not for the crummy band.
Prior to writing this review, I pulled mine out of the "junk" drawer where it went 3 years ago when the band fell apart. It has lost a total of just 17 seconds in that time! If you buy one of these, I recommend you try to extend the band's life by treating it very gently when you put the watch on your wrist and take it off. It's the pulling of the "tongue" of the band all the way back to engage or disengage the pin into one of the band's holes that will ultimately destroy it.
One last thing - Amazon has half a dozen different listings for this watch and the W96H1BV which is identical except for color. Make sure you do a search in Watches for W96H1* (don't forget the *) to see all the prices and all the reviews.

Summary: Easy to Read, Easy to Set, Good Value
Comment: This watch is very easy to read in various lighting situations, the contrast between the characters and the background is good, the numbers and letters are large and clear, the design is pleasing and intuitive.
I had no trouble setting this watch. I have not worn a watch in a few years, but wanted one to keep on schedule with a tour group I'm traveling with to the Galapagos Islands. With airports and boarding times to get there, and a busy schedule of activities each day of vacation, I wanted to know the time at a glance even with my hands full. At under $20 it is a great value.
Customer Rating:
Summary: PURCHASED SEVERAL OVER THE YEARS
Comment: Casio makes terrific products, very reasonably priced and good looking. I purchased one several years ago and not only is it trouble-free, it lasts a lot longer than the band does. This is my fourth Casio watch and after about two years the band breaks. I've priced replacement bands and it's cheaper to buy a new watch with more features. Highly recommend for the price!
