Casio Men's Analog Bracelet Watch #MQ24-7B


This is a very nice watch. It does its job and is easy to read (and cheap).

I was trying to decide between this model, the similar-looking Casio MQ24-1B (black), and the MQ24-7E (white, without numerals). I thought the other two might look a little bit nicer, but I eventually decided on this product, the MQ24-7B, because I thought it would probably be more readable than either of the others, and that is the most important thing.

Before this, I had almost always used a digital watch, but I'm quite happy with this one. I have to get used to remembering what day of the month it is instead of checking my watch, and I can't set alarms anymore, but that's not a big problem. If I hold it within about a foot of my ear, I can hear it softly ticking, but otherwise it seems to be silent.

Yes, the band will probably break long before the watch stops working.Buy Casio Men's Analog Bracelet Watch #MQ24-7B!

Casio Men's Moon Phase Tide Graph Sport Watch #W753D-1AV


I bought this watch because it had the moon phase and tide graph, they work great, but aren't very useful here in Charlotte, NC.

The watch body is made of "resin" (plastic), so we can probably expect the watch pins to easily pull free.Buy Casio Men's Moon Phase Tide Graph Sport Watch #W753D-1AV!

Casio Men's G-Shock Geiz Series Multi-Band Solar Atomic Watch #GS1100-2A


This is my first Casio G-Shock watch (I'm a loyal Citizens customer) and my first impressions are very positive:

1. Watch has some heft to it and the oversized look is very sporty and masculine in appearance. I prefer these resin watch bands; they keep the watch in-place better on your wrist...don't slide around as much as leather or metal bands. Plus they weather the wear & tear better.

2. Took the watch out of the box, flipped through the quick user guide, sat by a window facing West, pressed a few buttons and the watch basically set itself. SUPER EASY!

The solar power and auto atomic time setting features mean I'll rarely, if ever, need to replace the battery or set the date/time. This is why I am also a fan of the Citizen watches that have solar power and perpetual calendars. Why would anyone buy a watch that doesn't power and set itself?

3. Like other reviews have noted, I do wish the watch face was just a bit bigger. The blue watch face plate is very sharp and makes reading the dials a breeze. You do have to look closely to make out the day dial.

4. It appears as if the protective guard that wraps around the watch face is easy to remove. This is good considering I can see a fair amount of dust/debris possibly getting trapped in the various crevices.

As far as I can tell, I am now a loyal Casio G-Shock customer as well. Thanks to MyTimepiece.com for super fast and free shipping.Buy Casio Men's G-Shock Geiz Series Multi-Band Solar Atomic Watch #GS1100-2A!

Casio Women's Baby-G Shock Resistant Sports Watch #BG169A-1AV


My daughter, a young Naval officer, requested this watch for Christmas. She was ecstatic when she received it. She described this as the best of this type of watch. She will be using this in her duties for the Navy, but also when she is performing personal exercise training for herself and to keep in shape for the physical testing required by the Navy. I briefly attempted to set the time on it so it would be functioning when she opened the gift, but, being technically challenged, I left that to her. When I mentioned that to her she said she did have to read the instruction book to understand how to use all the functions. After reading the instruction booklet she felt confident that she was able to use all the functions on the watch. Wish I could feel that confident after reading instructions on operating this computer! Buy Casio Women's Baby-G Shock Resistant Sports Watch #BG169A-1AV!

Casio Men's Sea Pathfinder Tide Watch #SPF40-1V


i got this watch as a birthday present from my wife and what a gift it was. this watch is almost perfect. The digital compass, the barometer, tidal chart, and moon age functions work great. the only part that is questionable is the thermometer. while wearing the watch you wont get an accurate reading you have to have it off of you body for around 15 mins. but other than that its great. the size is awesome but i like large watches so some people might not like that part. if you are an outdoorsman get this watch. 5 stars!Buy Casio Men's Sea Pathfinder Tide Watch #SPF40-1V!

Casio Men's Ana-Digi Dual Time Watch #AW49HE-1AV


Without bells and whistles, it is built up on a cool, discrete fashion, and surprisingly well built. And whats more, keeps accurate along the way. Why pay [...] for a fancy watch, when this one costs about [...] dollars? Great job from Casio, once more.Buy Casio Men's Ana-Digi Dual Time Watch #AW49HE-1AV!
