This watch is a great deal. I just want to offer a minor warning to any potential buyers. There is more gray plastic in the face of the watch than I realized from looking at the photo. There is a gray circle of plastic around the dial, there are also four plastic screw tops at the corners of the watch, and more gray plastic in parts around the side. This isnt a big problem, but it makes the watch a little less classy than I thought it would be. It is still very nice looking and great deal. Moreover, it is even better deal because it comes with a "ten year battery," even though that isnt mentioned in the product description.

When I was looking for a watch I figured Id spend the usual forty or fifty bucks for a so/so watch..but.. I spied this one and wondered if, at that price, it would be worth checking out. I liked the looks etc. but couldnt help wondering if it was really a GOOD watch? Ive now had it over a year and it keeps very good time. I use the stop watch often and have no problems with it. It still looks good, runs good and even the band seems to be of good quality. (though it was a bit of a challenge trying to shorten it), Bottom line is... Dont let the price fool you, this is a great deal!!!

My husband likes everything about this watch except the color. When I ordered it, I thought it would have a blue face. It actually has a sort of subdued lavender face (my husband called it purple, but it is not that shocking), which is also very nice, but he would have felt more comfortable if it had a blue face. He is wearing the watch none-the-less. I dont know why the Amazon watch description says "blue dial", if it really isnt.

blue dial an intense palette; heft, band, performance (mind-boggling accuracy) looks overall add up to a fantastic product, 10 yr. battery an awesome claim, (check with me around 2015), had the black one for a few months until a friend accidentally junked it, repeat buy says a lot. plus what the other guy said, merchant deserves props

First, about the delivery. I placed my ordered on Thursday night, and even though I selected the slowest method of delivery, I already had it by Monday morning !
I bought this watch as a temporary cheep replacement for an expensive Swiss watch that needed some repair time. Now that I have this Casio, I might just put the other watch in a safe place, and use it only for special occasions.
This watch deliver everything that is promissed. Personally, I would like a watch that is all metal, while this one has some plastic parts in the case, but that required buying a more expensive model.
The display is clear and large enough (for me at least), the band is comfortable and so far reliable. It hasnt broken or opened, even after few hours of hard work at the back yard.
I find it relatively easy to operate the many functions it has, once one undestand the logic behind it. I will never use all the functions (three alarms - one is enough for me, 30 page database - my cell phone has more, and is easier to operate), and I believe that some of them are only selling gimmicks. However, nothing can beat the main advantage of this watch - its price. I went to several department stores and checked their cheep watches, and yes, I could get watches for as low as $9, but non of them looked as nice and had both the alarm and countdown timer, which are important to me.
The only drawback I can find, and even that is only esthetic, is the ilumination, which is an old type lightbulb, not the cool blue light.
I would not pay $100 for this watch, but at $20 it is an excelent buy.
