Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

The watch is very good, looks great. Of course, due to the inverse dial, readings from them are worse / more difficult in some lighting conditions (see photo), but this does not bother me, and even completely)) Firstly, there is a backlight, and secondly, for each, roughly speaking, lighting conditions have their own hours))

Pros
  • Beautiful and neat watch, interesting design of the display, inverted colors of numbers and display. Moreover, the screen (front part) of the watch itself, if you look at it at a right angle, seems black, but if you change the viewing angle on them, and even in the light, and especially in daylight, then it gives off dark purple, I personally really like this effect . Pleasant backlight tone, mostly numbers on the display are highlighted.
Cons
  • It is still too early to judge, but at the moment there is nothing to complain about. Functionally, I knew what I was getting. The only thing I thought they would be the same thickness as the CASIO A-158WEA (didn't keep track of when choosing), but turned out to be a little thicker 9.6 mm versus 8.2 mm, but this is such a trifle that does not bother. I don’t really like the metal strap, but this is my personal dislike for metal straps, although of course it is comfortable, easy to fasten / unfasten and change the required length.

Good value for money, I recommend it.

I took the watch instead of the "smart" ones, which were just tired. I wanted a device that would simply show the time. The model copes with this task. However, budget is everything. You can get used to small jambs and features, and if you wear only in the city and do not try to kill, then the watch will last a long time.

Pros
  • It's nice that the model with a plastic case is mineral glass. The case itself, thanks to the coating, looks like metal and, in general, the watch does not give the impression of being very cheap. It also has an adjustable bracelet. In terms of mechanism and functionality, everything is fine. For the money, of course.
Cons
  • The case is plastic, which means that if not carefully used, it will collect scratches. It's still not a G-shock. The bracelet is assembled from stamped parts that lack processing. Because of this, wearing a watch on a particularly sensitive wrist will not be comfortable. The gray numerals on the dark background of the dial are hard to read at dusk. Of course, there is a backlight, but the button is not very convenient.

The right product for me, the price suited me.

no delight, in general, only in the picture they look amazing. as soon as you take it in your hands, all the beauty is gone. I have casio lin-169, casio gw-b5600, casio w-201 in my hands and, as for me, lin-169 is better, they look more solid and do not feel like a toy, although at the time of purchase (after 2022) they were cheaper

Pros
  • general style,
Cons
  • strap - as soon as I took the watch in my hands, I realized that it was a toy. The backlight only works when the button is pressed. there is no button protection - once again looking at the clock I saw a running stopwatch.

A really necessary purchase, Im glad I found this product.

Already the second watch of this model The first ones served faithfully for 3 years, but in the fourth year my shabby handcuff let me down and I had to buy new ones almost twice as expensive, but what new ones they are . Pros below: In my opinion, the best option from all possible variations of Casio Has some cons: After prolonged wear, the backlight becomes dimmer and eventually disappears altogether, but most likely this is solved by replacing the battery, but the plastic case is not easy…

Total disappointment, the product is terrible.

It feels like the goods were put on purpose the wrong one, because. the price on the market is less than the price from the seller on his own website.

Pros
  • Good price but wrong product
Cons
  • They brought a completely different watch model (gold instead of silver). I waited for delivery for 3 days, now I will have to bother with the return and the search for another gift.

I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

What is the most important thing in a watch? So that you personally would be pleased to look at them, because you will have to do this for a very long time and very often. How unusual they look! I did not notice the inconvenience of reading readings in poor lighting, although I was ready for this shortcoming for the sake of their retro-cosmic appearance.

Pros
  • Design! Retro with a touch of cyberpunk. after a year of use: you can write a song about the display: the numbers in different lighting shine with gold, silver, copper, duralumin, bottle greenish, just flash white.
Cons
  • No after a year of use: the backlight without a timeout - we press it glows, we don’t press it does not light up, the backlight button is involved in the functions - we set the alarm, we have to press the backlight, reset the stopwatch - again we have to press the backlight, draining the battery. It is very difficult to see the time through dark glasses with polarization.

At the age of 18, I found a watch similar to this one in Montana and decided I had to have it. I only brought it on vacation because I believe such watches are out-of-date and ruin the entire look. This is significant for people who dress professionally.

Beautiful, reliable and comfortable boilers for everyday life, especially for connoisseurs of 80s electronics style. An elegant touch in this model is the inverted LCD dial. Yes, it is a little worse to read in poor lighting than usual, but damn it, how trump it looks! I also really like the backlight in this model: firstly, it is uniform across the entire screen (those who dealt with the old legendary Casio models from the 80s and 90s probably remember that there was one dim light bulb…

Pros
  • design, body materials

Great value for money, one of the best offers.

In general, not a bad model. Pros: Inverted display, the main reason why I bought the watch. For the rest. Standard feature set Time display in two formats 12/24 day-month Stopwatch Alarm At the beginning of every hour beeps Backlight Got cons: Didn't like the bracelet. Unzip and split into two parts. So you can lose the watch if the bracelet itself unfastens and it is extremely inconvenient to put on the watch. You can't fasten with one hand. I'll have to buy another bracelet. Well, the body…

Im amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

Dear Seller. I apologize for my inattention, but I mixed up the watch boxes when trying on. Warranty card and info on the box from other watches (which I refused). I don't care about the warranty, I know that the watch will live forever. But due to my situation, another buyer may have problems :( Took 168WEM-1E (left) Docks on 158WEA-1E (they are on the right side of the wrist) I already asked support to contact me, I would take the box, I'm waiting for a response from them. I recommend the

Pros
  • Timeless classic, stylish, suitable for any bow
Cons
  • I drowned these in the summer, so I repeated them. Drowned in the plan, lost in the Volga .

The choice was conscious. I bought it because mineral glass is more scratch resistant than plastic. It is a pity of course that the body is not metal. Another point: in the picture the numbers are read perfectly, in reality the inverse screen is not very readable. Perhaps if the numbers were larger, it would be better. But . However, he did not put up with poor readability (subjectively). After a couple of hours of torment, it was decided to open the watch and refine it to the ideal. The cover…

Pros
  • Vintage, not expensive. This model has mineral glass.
Cons
  • Housing plastic

I wore the model a little easier for 7 years without changing the battery. Only removed to wash. Baths, swimming pools and the sea with immersion up to 5 meters survived successfully. This time I decided to take a little more expensive and did not regret it, the color is chic, especially the dial with changing shades of red depending on the lighting (from absolutely black to purple) They sit comfortably on the arm and fit most styles of clothing. There is a small minus - a dim dial, even during

Pros
  • Visual above all praise
Cons
  • Dim dial

Excellent product, the best quality.

At the age of 18, I had a similar watch - Montana, stumbled upon one and decided - I must take it. I took it exclusively for vacation, as for everyday use - such watches are outdated and spoil the overall style - this can be important for those who adhere to a certain style for work.
