CasioCollection Unisex Digital Watch F-91W

I bought this YEARS ago and its still working, im talking about 8 years,Its so easy to use, and read, perfect brightness for day and has a button to light it up in the dark. The time is still correct as well.No problems with accuracy and the length of time i’ve had it proves that its such good quality!

Even before retro became fashionable, I've sworn by this watch. It's functional appearance certainly has its charm, but what really makes the Casio F-91W-1YER great is its simplicity and longevity.It's a watch that does watch things - it very clearly displays the time in either 12 or 24 hour format with a little green light for telling the time in the dark, it keeps track of the day and date, it has an alarm and the option to have it chime on the hour, and it has a stopwatch with lap function. It does everything you want a watch to do, for a very modest price - I've seen plenty of watches cost far more but do far less.That's not all. It goes on forever. Well, not literally, though it certainly feels like it. I've owned mine for somewhere between five and ten years now and I've not had to replace the battery once. Also, despite working in a laboratory with a million-and-one different ways to melt plastic, corrode metal, kill circuits, etc., not to mention regular commandeering by a toddler over the past year, it still looks almost as good as new. I've friends who work on building sites and in the armed forces who can attest to the durability of this watch too.It has, as far as I'm aware, only one Achilles heel, and that's the strap. This tends to wear out before the actual timepiece does and once it's gone, you might as well just buy a new one. That said, it's not like they wear out quickly (mine's still as strong as ever), nor is it as if they cost a bomb to replace. Other minor (and I stress the word "minor") issues include having to reset the date on a leap year (oh no, I have to spend a minute setting the date on my watch every four years - whatever will I do?!) and the green light not being powerful enough for some folks to see the display properly (should've gone to Specsavers...).Anyway, to end on an up-note, here's my conclusion - buy this watch. It's cheap, functional, durable, and now comes in a whole bunch of colours. What's not to love?

The person using this watch has bought the same watch for years and years. This is the £9.99 model. It is worn all day, 365 days a year. It is used for outside and inside work, in all weathers and, very importantly, as a runners stopwatch. He has come back off a run drenched from rain or just sweat and this watch just keeps on working! It isn’t one of those all singing all dancing watches that does everything but make breakfast. It is an everyday workhorse. It is a simple stopwatch, it has a backlight button, it gives you the day and date and it tells you the time. What more could you ask for?The facts that tip this watch into the extraordinary category are that it is sturdy but not huge or bulky like a lot of watches of this type. It has always kept to the correct time, NEVER running slow or fast. And for a price that is less than the cost of a new strap or battery!! Amazing! The reason for buying this replacement is the strap on the old watch has split, the watch itself is still running perfectly but it is just cheaper to buy a new one.The old watch was just over 7 years old. The previous one to that was a bit older and was also replaced because of the strap. We don’t believe there is a flaw in the strap. The watches are subjected to an awful lot of sweat several times a week which tends to EVENTUALLY weaken them.I believe these watches come in several colours and also in metal although the price is more. They are suitable for women as well. We have road tested this exact watch for years and years. The watch itself has never failed. The price has barely increased in all that time. It is still one of the least expensive watches there are. £10 for battery driven item used 365 days a year and which lasts for 7+ years without breaking down or battery failure is remarkable. I don’t believe you can better this anywhere. Buy one.
