 Casio - MRP700D1AV (Size: men) By: Casio Average Rating: 4.5 Total Reviews: 7 More Information Excellent products with reasonable prices and fast services  On: 2007-05-13I highly recommend this seller. What you see is what you get. Too hard to read digital display  On: 2007-04-11I really need a watch with two time zones and a countdown timer. I like a digital and analog combination. I thought this would fit the bill. The drawbacks are that the bezel is blue and hard to see through. The digital functions are so small they are practically unreadable. Somehow I have an hourly alarm turned on and cannot figure out how to turn it off. Oh, one more thing, the band pinches the hair on my arm. Too bad, good price but does not come through for me. What a bargain! On: 2007-03-25Love this watch! Ive had it for several months now and it is a great piece. The moon and tide data are helpful to me as a fisherman, surfer, and boater. The multiple alarms are nice and loud, too. Ill be happy with the ten-year battery even if it only lasts half of that. And it really looks sharp (like I paid much more for it than I did!). Two niggles with it: first, the backlight (an old-school incandescent-bulb-yellow color) is fairly weak. It illuminates the face and hands, but NOT the digital window to any useable degree. Irritating! Second, I actually use this watch in the water. Specifically, in salt-water while Im surfing. While the case and band are stainless steel, there appears to be some pins or other inner parts of the band links that arent stainless. When I come out of the ocean, I will notice little rust streaks down the side of the links after an hour or so. They are from rusty water dripping out from inside the links, and they do wipe off. Ive taken to rinsing the watch in fresh water right after I get out of the ocean (probably not a bad idea anyway), and that seems to have mostly solved it. Those issues notwithstanding, Id buy another of these in a heartbeat if I lost this one. Its a killer combination of looks and water-friendly function at an inexpensive price! The only thing I wish is that they made an all-titanium version. little bit disappointing  On: 2007-02-24in general this watch has a good design with bluish tint, but if you go further in details youll definitely notice some lacks.. first of all, it has no a seconds arrow, the cheap price cannot be the aceptable reason for this. The darklight is TOTALY weak, while it takes some time to figure out what the time is, yet u even cant see the date in the dark, because the light doesnt reach the lower digital display part. and the yellow light color on the blue design looks very awful. And the "10 year battery life" slogan on the watches looks like cheezy ad. i wish they left this area empty rather than write such thing. fast delivery for some extra bucks. great item On: 2007-02-15Excellent and beautiful item, fast shipping and delivery. The seller excellent thank you Impressive by: Anonymous On: 2007-01-11 Very good watch, it seems like a very expensive one. Its good choice. I love this watch! On: 2006-09-03Repeat..I love this watch. I bought this for the tide graph and for the metal dress band to replace my Casio Illuminator, another great cheap watch for boating etc. I use the tide graph all the time for boating and fishing. The metal band is nice enough to wear for work and dress so I now wear it all the time. I took the watch to my local jeweler to have it sized as I had trouble doing that myself without the needed very small screwdriver. There are instructions on the net for how to take out links yourself but my jeweler only charged me $5 and threw in a new fibre band for my old Illuminator. For the price, Im not afraid to wear the watch boating. If I smash it, Ill just buy another one. Cant do that with my Rolex. I have people ask me why I bought another expensive dress watch and I just smile and tell them it cost me fifty bucks. B-) |
