A700W-1A Vintage Digital Watch for Men & Women, Ultra Slim Stainless Steel Bracelet, Retro Square Display, LED Backlight, Daily Alarm, Stopwatch, Water Resistant

Casio knows what they are doing. I bought this cheap but vintage looking watch when my son was born, I never wear one but I needed one to check the time constantly during his first months. The light is very useful, is light, it has a chronometer, alarm. Nothing fancy, just simple, sturdy and very useful. My dad and grandad used to have a very similar watch and as a kid I always wanted one, for some reason I thought they were expensive but for what you pay you get an amazing bargain. The only downside, just make sure you understand the locking mechanism because it might seem it is locked but it falls from your wrist afterwards. That happened at the beginning until I understood how it locks properly. Maybe more my fault than the watches.

The Casio Men's A700W-1ACF Classic Digital Display Quartz Silver Watch is a great option for those looking for a stylish and functional watch. It has a classic design with a silver stainless steel case and band, and a digital display that shows the time, date, and day of the week. The watch is also water resistant to 50 meters, making it perfect for everyday wear. I've been using the Casio A700W-1ACF for about a month now, and I've been very impressed with it. It's comfortable to wear, and the digital display is easy to read. I also like that the watch is water resistant, so I don't have to worry about it getting wet if I get caught in the rain. Overall, I think the Casio Men's A700W-1ACF Classic Digital Display Quartz Silver Watch is a great value for the price. It's a stylish and functional watch that's perfect for everyday wear. Here are some of the pros and cons of the Casio Men's A700W-1ACF Classic Digital Display Quartz Silver Watch: Pros: Stylish design Functional digital display Water resistant to 50 meters Comfortable to wear Affordable Cons: The band may be too small for some people with large wrists The watch is not shockproof Overall, I think the Casio Men's A700W-1ACF Classic Digital Display Quartz Silver Watch is a great watch for the price.

Great watch, wear it often Love the retro look

So light It doesn’t feel like I’m wearing a watch. Very nice 10/10

I'm a (proud) owner of a Casio G-Shock GA700-UC and wanted something more befitting of my Sunday/Western-Best, so I wanted to explore more of Casio's options. This is NOT written by a certified watch expert nor a long-time Casio regular, and certainly not an influencer/shill, but someone who waited perhaps too long to make a move on the aforementioned G-Shock. I want to make this (short-term) review as helpful as possible to consider the A700W-1A. [Design] The A700W-1ACF (Module Number 3472/3479) is a unisex timepiece that is available in a number of different arrangements. This version is available in chrome/silver (purchased), gold, and a chrome/silver variant with subdued monochromatic notations (text) and Milanese band. There are two more recently released editions with a far more minimalist face with a mirror finish also available in gold and silver. I don't mind the cleaner minimalist look, but I find the Gold and Chrome/Silver A700W-1ACF to have more personality that falls in line with the bulkier A158WA-1DF and A168WA. The selling points of this watch are a retro aesthetic and an impressively slim profile at only 6 millimeters (0.23 inches), which says a lot about the underlying 3472/3479 module. It has a standard LCD with its size more or less comparable to the venerable F91-W and a tapered, segmented wrist strap, and a metal clasp with adjustment and retention flaps. There are two buttons on the left which control the backlight and mode switching, the right button switches between 12/24 hour time formats and cycling through each individual settings. [Durability and Reliability] The A700W-1ACF's construction consists of three materials: Chromed Resin for the case, mineral glass for the face, and stainless steel for the band. The mineral glass is less susceptible to scratches than plastic but you may err on the side of caution to avoid drops or harsh impact; rather standard procedure for any glass material. The resin case's chrome finish doesn't look nor feel cheap but will show wear earlier than stainless steel. The stainless steel band feels more premium and the clasp is sturdy thanks to ridged adjustment and retention with no free play, and the buttons don't feel fragile with little to no free play either. The back cover is screwed on tight and sits flush with the case, no blemishes/defects whatsoever. Regarding the water resistance, I don't use this one in rough and tumble environments where my G-Shock would be more appropriate (such as outdoor exercise, dirty work, etc.), but given Casio's track record for reliability I can deduce that the A700W-1ACF should be able to handle a round of manual dish washing. Timekeeping is situated manually without pre-selecting time zones although it does support adjusting to leap years, resetting the seconds counter is an option so that your watch and PC have consistent timekeeping. For my individual case, a minute is about a meager two seconds off from my smartphone, take that however you will. [Ease of Use] Given the aforementioned design, three buttons is more than enough to do the job for all of the A700W-1ACFs functions. The display has about the same contrast you'd get on any non-negative (non-inverse) LCD panel, decent viewing angles, except when using the backlight while viewing the display at a downwards angle . Some might fuss about the need to hold the backlight button down, but it's pretty standard at this range of Casio watches from what I've seen on various videos and it really isn't a big deal in my opinion. The buttons are easy enough to press but not so much that one can accidentally switch modes or turn on the backlight. Configuring each setting is a matter of pressing the leftmost mode button until the seconds segment flashes, then you select individual fields with the light button while adjusting the settings using the 12/24 hour start/stop button on the right. When you are finished with the settings you can exit the configuration mode by either pressing the mode button or letting the watch idle and return to timekeeping mode on its own. The hardest part of using this watch is strap adjustment, which requires a flat tool to open the adjustment flap, it's safe to say if you find the right size adjustment try and stick to it otherwise it's set it and forget it. [Fit and Feel] The major selling point of this watch above all else is its slim and dress-unobtrusive profile. I can testify that these exact two points are achieved without exaggeration. Naturally a bulkier watch would tap the back of the hand and in my case this one does so but without advertising its presence. If I wore longer sleeves throughout the year I would almost forget that I am wearing the A700W-1ACF. There's just enough weight to be felt without obnoxious slack, especially if tightened to be properly flush with your wrist. By the way if you ever feel like the stainless steel strap is tugging at your hairs (which is a valid concern) try adjusting the size down to where it's properly flush with your wrist, this doesn't completely get rid of hair pulling but makes it far less frequent. [Authenticity and Value] Going through everything I've covered, I feel like the A700W-1ACF has both personality and utility that punches above its price range. You don't get any fancy bells and whistles, at most the slimness and amber-orange backlighting are its stand-out "features". Nothing feels cheap, out of place, nor "too derivative" of other watches on the market to bore you to tears. Slightly tedious adjustment process, but as said before once you get it right it's pretty much set-it-and-forget-it. I might fetch one of the newer variants with the more minimalist glass, but I probably won't review it because everything I've said about this one can be said about the other, minus the purely cosmetic differences. Addressing the issue of authenticity, I'm not a veteran in the culture around analog or digital watches, but I did some scouring and duly noted the amount of counterfeits that plague not just Amazon but just about anywhere that sells watches. Thankfully, I was shipped an authentic unit but would give some advice to those who are skeptical. Most digital Casio watches have built-in "hidden features" that tell you everything about authenticity. The first test is the factory display test which is performed by pressing all three buttons (2 left, 1 right for the A700WC-1ACF) together at once, all the segments of the display should be filled. The second test is pressing and holding the rightmost button (start/stop/12 hour/24 hour) for five seconds until CASIo appears, it should reset back to normal. If your unit doesn't correspond to any of the two tests you either have a counterfeit or defective unit, the latter I can't estimate the likelihood of.

I just can't get over how great this looks, with its slim profile and retro cool factor. It has all the functionality of the other affordable models, but in an even slimmer package, and I much prefer the comfortable yellow-orange backlight to the light blue backlight on other models. However, the reviews aren't kidding, this really pulls hair, so much so that it was initially unwearable for me. Rather than replace the strap, I decided to shave my wrist. Fortunately, with it's small profile I didn't have to shave too much. I realize that there is another A700 variant which has a strap that doesn't pull hairs, and that's a great option for someone who doesn't want to shave their wrist, but I really like the more masculine look of this one. I should also mention that the viewing angle is only sharp on the left wrist. It's not invisible by any stretch, but on the right wrist the digital display is a tad cloudy.

Beaurfil watch

This watch is honestly great. It's got a minimalist retro look, is great for people with small wrists, and is easy to use the features on. I've been using mine for a few months now and I wear it every day, it doesn't take damage very easily but I wouldn't treat it very rough. I do lift weights with mine and it doesn't show any visible scuff marks. For clarification, the wrist strap is made of aluminum and the face is plastic. I do have fairly long arm hair and had issues with very mild pinching at first but if you wear it every day it should flatten the hairs in the region and you won't have that problem. You can wear this in the shower but I wouldn't risk submerging it. It's water RESISTANT and not water PROOF so it doesn't stop water from entering its interior. I will say however, and this is something I didn't expect, but there is a time inaccuracy. Which is to say, the watch will be roughly 1 second off by two weeks, and this adds up. I reset mine in November/December to exactly match with the time on my phone down to the second. Right now (March 15th) my Casio is 21 seconds off. This is obviously easy to reverse but I thought that review readers should know about this. I mean, maybe this is a problem with my Android phone but I doubt that! I won't let that detract from my 5 star rating though.

Me encantó el reloj. Desde que llegó se nota la calidad: el empaque venía en perfectas condiciones, con su cajita y porta reloj, todo muy bien cuidado. El reloj está impecable, sin ninguna talladura y con un acabado excelente.

A escolha desse relógio foi maravilhosa! Ele se adapta perfeitamente ao pulso, além de ser regulável sem a remoção de qualquer peça. Facilmente configurável e muito bonito!

Catch is very flimsy I bought for my partner but he hasn’t worn it cause first time he put it on the catch was pretty useless.

Fantastic watch - bought it for my wife - she loves the retro vibe.

As always, Casio made a fantastic watch! Great for all occasions. I generally wear it to work with a shirt and tie; it flows very well. The bonus is, it doesn't get caught on my sleeve like other bulky watches. It's slim enough for the sleeve to slide over without any issues.
