- Cheap and basicAs they say, you get what you pay for. I bought this watch about a year ago for around $12 including tax. The main reason I bought it was because it is very comfortable. I have hairy arms, and I need a watch that won't catch the hairs, and of the many watches I tried on for fit, this one was the least intrusive. The analog display is easy to read and easy to set. I have only two complaints about this watch: 1) There is no illumination glow at all, making it useless in the dark (what does it cost to add a simple glowing stripe? jeez!) 2) It loses its ability to resist water very slowly. What started out as fogged lens after a few months turned into full-blown water leakage. After taking a hot shower this watch recently died. Which is unfortunate because I just replaced the battery at $7 each! So my advice is, if you want a cheap disposable watch with no frills, this is a good choice. Otherwise, spend an extra $10 or $15 dollars and get a better one. Rating: - Fatally itchy bandAs a timekeeping device, I have no issues with this watch, but for something a human being is supposed to affix to their body, I have a problem. I haven't figured out why yet, but the band is so intolerably itchy, I literally can't wear the watch. It's definitely in the clasp area, but I can't find any burrs or flash on it that might rub. I'm not particularly sensitive to rubber, et c., so I'm guessing it's catching and pulling out minute hairs. As a new band would cost at least as much as the watch, it's essentially a write-off. Crumbs. Rating: - HorribleVery Cheap. Shipping was almost same as product. Looks like an item you can purchase at any dollar store! Rating: - Top quality for a fistfull of dollarsTop casio quality for less than $10,- Accurate and easy to read the time for us over 50 because of the wihte background and the large digits. Rating: - GREAT VALUEI'M A NURSE AND FEEL LOST WITHOUT A WATCH. THIS IS MY "BACKUP" WATCH FOR WHEN MY OTHER ONE DOESN'T WORK. HOWEVER, I'M VERY PLEASED WITH THE WAY ITS BEEN HOLDING UP. GETS WASHED AT LEAST 20 TIMES IN AN 8 HOUR PERIOD, PROBABLY MANY MORE. I'VE BEEN WEARING IT FOR SEVERAL WEEKS AND IT HAS HELD UP JUST FINE. VERY BASIC AND PRACTICAL, INEXPENSIVE.
