Dual Time, indiglo, light weight, cool looking watch.brHas Dial display and digital time, along with databank to store phone numbers (about 30). The best feature of the watch is the digital display on the glass/faceplate and the dial behind it is really nice concept, indiglo button on the bottom portion is very convienent, lastly the watch can be used for casual formal wear (sometimes) by just turning of the electronic display!brI have it for 2 years now, no problems, never took it off my wrist, i have other watches too, but never felt the need to wear another one with this with mepGo get it

Almost perfect watch - one minor flaw

Firstly let me say what a wonderful watch this is. As others have mentioned you can just keep wearing it wherever, at work, at the gym and for a Muslim like me who has to wash his hands, arms etc 5 times a day before praying, I can still keep the watch on as its water resistant.
br /
br /Its a perfectly smart watch, I normally just use the analogue display. In the gym however I also use the stopwatch to time myself between sets.
br /
br /Ah, the minor flaw I hear you ask. Well, not sure if its the same for all of them, but my watch turned up (ordered it online, as I'm from UK) with goldish coloured minute/hour/second hands. This basically meant visibility was not very good especially when outside in the sun, you have to look at the watch for several seconds to work out the time. Me being impatient? Perhaps, but consider this drawback whilst driving where you just want a quick one second glance for the time.
br /
br /Anyway, I took the watch to my local watch dealer and he somehow painted the hands with some black ink for only a couple of quid. He told me afterwards 'not many watch dealers would do this!'.
br /
br /So now I have the perfect watch which I'm perfectly happy with :)

Excellent Ana-Digi Watch for the price!!

I have had this watch for 5+ years now. Worn it for umpteen treks/hikes, Wear it to the gym everyday. basically gets thrown around all the time! But this is a really light and sturdy watch.
br /Five digital Modes: 1. Date/time, 2. Databank, 3. World Time, 4. Alarm 5. Stop watch. I mostly use 1, 3 5
br /
br /Really useful features...
br /1. You actually have 3 times in this watch. The Digital, the World-time (also digital) and if you want you can set your analog to a third time! Really useful when I am traveling (I keep my analog at home time and switch mode to world time)
br /2. Has a DST option so there is no need to change the actual time. You still have to change the analog time though.
br /3. Resin strap is of a very good quality unlike some of the other Casio watches
br /4. Battery life is great. Changed batteries only once since buying it in Dec 2002
br /5. Backlight is green, bright and perfectly timed (3 secs) so it doesnt eat into your battery
br /
br /Cons..
br /Come on! Its just a watch... :-)

Its a good watch. Would prefer if they had the calender instead f the world map. But other than that everything with the watch is great.

Very good watch from Casio

Very good watch from Casio. I like this watch very much as it has LCD display capability on screen. I don't use other function except world time. So for getting time and world time it is brilliant.
br /
br /If some one is looking for a buy, they should go for it.

I am on here to get another casio world time watch after having the one reviewed this page for a whole battery life. I would guess it lasted about 6 years. Pretty ok.
br /It kept good time, very gradually gaining a coulple of seconds, so no complaints there.
br /As with all of these watches, the "crystal" is very soft and scratches very easily. Mine has several deep gouges.
br /My complaint is that the background hands do not contrast enough with the face, making them difficult to read. If the time zone stuff is laid over the top, they mostly can't be seen. Having a digitized map of the world on the face may look cool, but it is not good for much and I could do without it. Just the city and digital time would be enough.
br /And, as everyone says, the watch functions are difficult to set and difficult to remember. Every year when going back and forth from daylight savings to standard, I just push the buttons until I finally make it happen.
br /I will be getting another Casio. For the money you can't beat it. I am often in airplanes where cell phones can't be used to tell time, so just the phone time doesn't work for me, though the phone clock is great in other time zones on the ground as it always displays the local time zone.

Casio watch is 'cheaper looking' than it appears onlin.

From the web site photos and specs, I thought this watch was a decent watch. Upon arrival, it's clearly a discount looking material and design. Online, the gray parts look metal, but in reality the watch is all plastic and the gray dial is a "painted coating." Entering data is tedious and time consuming, and display of that info is very poor. I use it for timing my swimming/running since it is light weight and has Indiglo. However, I don't wear it to work or formal as it's too cheap and plastic looking. Casio has much better looking watches than this one. For a few dollars more, I could have bought a much nicer watch with timer and backlighting, and a "REAL" METAL FACEPLATE/DIAL!

Best watch for the price

This is one of the best watches I have. The two best features of this watch are 1. world time 2. data bank (you can store upto 30 telephone numbers).
br /
br /Also, the backlight is excellent and the dial is very clearly visible at night too.
br /
br /I would recommend this watch and the seller as well. The item looks exactly like in the picture and was very nicely packed.

I really liked the watch but did not like the strap much. The strap looks rather cheap and I have feeling that it won't last.

decent watch!

br /i like lot of stuff on the watches like gizmo stuff and this ones fits into my category :)
