Classic watch
As an avid timepiece enthusiast, I recently purchased this Casio, and I must say, I'm thoroughly impressed. Casio has a long-standing reputation for producing high-quality and reliable watches, and this digital model is no exception. From its sleek design to its impressive functionalities, it has won me over. Design & Comfort: The design of the watch exudes simplicity and efficiency. The classic square-shaped face and the iconic resin case give it a retro charm, making it a versatile accessory suitable for both casual and formal occasions. The watch's lightweight construction and adjustable resin strap ensure a comfortable fit on my wrist, allowing me to wear it for extended periods without any discomfort. Display & Features: The digital display on this Casio watch is nothing short of impressive. The large LCD screen presents crisp and clear digits, making it effortless to read the time at a glance. Its user-friendly interface allows for easy navigation through various functions, including 12/24-hour time format, date, day of the week, alarm, and a reliable stopwatch. The built-in backlight comes in handy when I need to check the time in low-light conditions, adding to the overall convenience. Durability & Water Resistance: One of the key aspects that drew me to this watch was its renowned durability. Casio has engineered this timepiece to withstand the test of time, and it shows. I've worn it during various outdoor activities, and it has stood up to minor impacts and rough handling without any visible scratches. The impressive water resistance adds another layer of reliability, making it safe to wear in the rain or while washing hands without worry. Battery Life: The Casio Digital Watch boasts an exceptional battery life, which is a real game-changer for busy individuals like me. I have been using it for several months, and the battery has shown no signs of weakening. This eliminates the hassle of frequent battery replacements, granting me peace of mind that my watch will always be ready to keep track of time. Price & Value: In terms of value for money, this watch truly shines. Its affordable price tag belies the incredible features and durability it offers. It competes with watches at higher price points but remains accessible to a wide range of consumers without compromising on quality. Overall, I am thoroughly satisfied with my purchase. It has proven to be a reliable and stylish companion that consistently meets my timekeeping needs. Whether for everyday use or special occasions, this watch delivers on all fronts. If you're seeking a classic digital watch with lasting performance, the A168W-1 should be at the top of your list.

One of the best watches I've ever owned.
The Casio A168 is an old watch, to the point where if you're buying one you don't need my spiel. This one's water resistant, but that doesn't mean WATERPROOF. Do NOT submerge this watch. It's extremely light, surprisingly durable and the battery out of the box will last about 3 years with regular use of the illumination function.

Works simply very well.
I’ve worn this watch almost every single day for a little over a year now. Bought it Summer of 2021 and it’s work so well. I’ve dropped it, bumped into things pretty hard multiple of times, submerged it in water and it still tells the time to this day. I haven’t even really needed to fix the time once. Once you set in the date and time it’s good till the day it dies. Only downside is that if you have hairy arms like me, it’s gonna hurt for a while as the watch tugs/snags on the individual hairs on your wrist. But after a while it either pulls enough off in that area or you get used it and it doesn’t bother you anymore. The price is also a very good deal. It’s lasted me long enough to be impressed and works just fine. The style is simple and vintagely cool which I personally dig. Overall I recommend this watch to those who just need a simple digital watch that tells the time and date and that has a little style. It’s a great watch. What else can I say?

Best Bang for your Buck 💯
I’ve gone through a lot of reviews and research before buying this, AND I LOVE IT. It has all the basics (time, military time, alarm, day/date, alarm, stopwatch, and backlight). If I had to summarize all this, I’d say “This is the PERFECT everyday beater.” It’s small and elegant, at the same time, not too casual. By that, I don’t mean with a suit…but if you’re wearing something nice like a casual button-up or turtleneck, it’ll go along nicely. And yes, I’ve read the reviews about the strap on Amazon from others. What I have to say is….this is a $25-$30 everyday/beater watch…what’d you expect LOL If you don’t like the strap, simply change it. For the new people getting into watches and on a “college-student” budget, I’ve gotten compliments from friends and co-workers that wear watches like Omega, Tudor, Grand Seiko, and of course, Rolex. They liked how simple and stylish it is, and they have agreed that it’s a great everyday/beater for the price. Hope this helps you in making a decision! 😊

Now I have two!
I have two of these. I lost one for a week and finally ave up looking for it. The new watch is pretty much the same although a little brighter than the old on. I think I reviewed the old one also. These watches are rugged, keep good time, are stylish feel good on my wrist. There is a break in period where the band tends to pull out the hairs on wrist, but after awhile that stops as your arm and its hair et used to it. Oh grow up its not that bad! My only complaint would be the night light is not bright. Oh I found my other watch the day this watch arrived!

The mighty DORK BOMB!!1!
I just love this darn thing :D I was a mite worried about merely setting the thing to local time once I got it out of its box but the instructions were easy peasy!! The weirdo hooky-clasp for the wristband was easy to fasten once I finished saying "whaa??" and squinted at it for a minute. Fits just fine on my teeny little wrist. Dork Bomb Forever!

Sehr gutes Preis - Leistungsverhältnis für diese (80'er Jahre) Retrouhr, im Einzelhandel erheblich teurer. Mach ich, im Übrigen, immer so, in der Stadt die Artikel ansehen, Namen und Firma des Artikel erfragen und dann bei "Amaznn" bestellen. Ich kann auch die negative Darstellung von "Amaznn" in unseren "Qualitätsmedien" nicht verstehen. Ihr seid Super, euren Service, die übersichtliche Darstellung und die Kundennähe (Support) findet man selten. Gerade, was den Support betrifft, bei Anderen "verhungert" man in der Warteschleife, bei euch nicht. Danke dafür, Holger Schröter.
