Review on ⌚ Casio MRW200H-2BV Neo-Display Black Resin Band Unisex Watch by Sasha Holmes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

excellent watch for the price

I have had the watch for about 8 months. I like the size and the look of the watch. They tell the time well enough for a $16 watch. I found he lost about a minute over the course of 5 or 6 months. I wish the watch had a lum function or a backlight, but then again, this is a $16 watch. The arrows glow LIGHTLY in the dark, but so dim they're almost useless. You can make it bright. If you blow it up with a bright flashlight or bring it to a lightbulb, you don't need a glow at that moment because you have a light source. If it is important to you that the numbers on the color versions do not light up, you must purchase the white version for this. I really like the rotating bezel. For me, this is one of the most important functions of the watch. In fact, I wouldn't buy an analog watch without it unless there was another easy way to tell time. I need to be able to tell the time, how long I'm running and so on. At the same time, recently there have been cases when the bezel almost did not work if you do not take off the watch and use both hands. But I think it was my fault I sprayed it with bug spray and it got sticky. In fact, as of the writing of this review, it's back to normal right now. As you can imagine, in this price range, glass isn't glass, it's plastic. And it scratches and scrapes pretty easily. It feels particularly flush with the top of the watch. I really wish Casio would make the same watch but with a higher quality because I would buy it in a heartbeat. But this is definitely a great looking, lightweight and functional disposable watch. Use it for a few years until the battery dies and throw it in the trash. It's not really a family heirloom. Too bad I didn't get orange or green instead of blue, but that's personal preference. I can't see blue well in some lighting conditions as I suffer from mild blue/yellow color blindness.
