CasioMen's WV200A-1AV

Had this watch since 2010 when I saw one of my school friends owned one (handed down from his dad of course) and became completely obsessed with it's appearance after never seeing such a rugged and brutal looking digi watch at the time. Needless to say I begged my parents for one and got it for my birthday. It ran for 7 years straight until the strap broke due to my active teenager lifestyle and so, after missing it dearly for 6 years, I bought another one in 2023 and it's just as strong and of good value as it was back then. It's easy to get sick with the casio bug and start buying every casio you see for the fact that they're so cheap and good looking, but if you want to behave then all you need is this watch. Legibility is perfect, no dodgy viewing angles like newer G shocks, easy to use and just does the job that it's made to do perfectly. What more could you want? This is a life partner. Strap breaks? Replace it with another resin or metal band. Battery dies? 2 quid and 5 minutes of your time will have you set for another 15 years.

With modern watches, I'm not sure whether to expect a plethora of additional functions - most seem to have add-ons which will hardly ever be used.This Casio has just the basic functions with a very big plus - it's accuracy! Within 500Ms, and can be set for UTC or daylight saving with very little setting up.I noticed that other reviewers had problems locking on to the various atomic clocks. Quick solution: download the Junghens app ( there are others) and let the watch lock on to that first. Kind of like a "kickstart". Where I live, there is a radio "Shadow" for FM, DAB, etc., in other words, lousy reception! Using the app completely negated any reception problem, the watch updates overnight, every night.I can highly recommend this Casio.

Whilst I'm mainly to be seen wearing mechanical watches I love this piece for its 100% accuracy thanks to daily satellite updates, easy to use world time function and 200 meters water resistance, amongst other features. Use daily for running or swimming and great beach holiday watch due to world time, durability and diver abilities. Astonishing value for money, minor gripe is resin bracelet which if brakes are a fiddle to get replacement fitted. Be aware it's a big watch, but suitably so for its function.

+ Must be ok as it is my 3rd Casio WV200 watch.+ Waterproof- ext on display could be larger

Really like these atomic watches. Because they keep good time

A very good watch not to bulky easy to read the face keeps bang on time due to the sattilite signal would recommend will last a good couple of years

Excellent watch for the money very happy with it

It’s Great and it works well took
