Casio W800HG Series | Men’s Digital Watch | 100 Meter Water Resistance | Multi Function Alarm | 100 SEC Stopwatch | Auto Calendar | Countdown Timer | LED Light | Dual Time| 10 Year Battery

Bought this 2 years and 8 months ago and it's still great. In that time, it's drifted 27 seconds (e.g. at 8:00:00 it now reads 8:00:27). **EDIT** This drift is inaccurate. Updated at bottom of review **END EDIT**. For me, that's not a big deal, but figured I'd mention it. I wear the watch face-side down on my wrist, but it only accrued one mild scratch in all that time. Nothing terrible. I bought this watch because it had 3 things; the 24-hour time, the day of the week, and the date on a single screen. It's the only watch I've found that had all 3 of those. To find all 3 in a highly rated and CHEAP watch? I bought it in a second and haven't regretted it since. I actually returned a better and more expensive watch (Casio DW5600E-1V) before eventually finding and loving this. I especially love that it orders the date in Year-Month-Day format. I live in the US where Month-Day-Year is the norm, but I also work with thousands of computer files where the best way to organize files by date is with a Year-Month-Day system (e.g. 221102 for November 2, 2022). It's just a little nothing thing, but I love this watch for it. I should note that the watch band snapped off back in August, 2 years and 5 months after getting the watch. That's happened with other watches with resin bands that I've owned, always around the 2-3 year mark. I heard it's from sweat or showers hardening the resin or something. That could make sense as I never take mine off except when I'm rock climbing. Regardless, I just grabbed a cheap 18mm silicone watch strap for 12.99 and it's been fine ever since (bought silicone because I heard they don't snap. I'll update this if it ever does). I plan to use this watch forever. If it breaks, I'll buy a new one for the price of a burger + onion rings. I've gone through a dozen watches over the past 25 years or so, but this is the first one that I loved. It has everything I want without a bunch of other useless expensive crap that I'll never use (looking at you, altimeter; and that's coming from a hiker). It's cheap, reliable (anecdotally), has a fast band replacement process, no feature-bloat, has large text, and is DECENTLY water resistant. The only downside is that the watch isn't 200m water resistant. If it was, it'd be perfect for me. Anyway, I don't go surfing/swimming with it, but it hasn't fogged up after 2+ years of showers, rain, sweat, etc. If you want a cheap watch, I recommend this one (unless you're an avid surfer). Or if you're like me and willing to fork over $100 for a watch, maybe buy this anyway. It's certainly much better than the $21 price-tag would have you believe. **EDIT** 12/12/23 I made the above review over a year ago, but I realized that I couldn't verify that the 27 seconds of drift was accurate. Well, I decided to run a little experiment over the past year and record the drift every few months (basically whenever I remembered I was even doing this) and it turns out that the drift WASN'T accurate. After a year, my watch drifted 58 seconds. To get that 27 second value, I might have reset my watch whenever we had daylight saving time or something, hence the inaccurate drift. Anyway, I included the recorded values below (MM/DD/YY format) in case someone is interested. Also, I used time.gov for the baseline comparison. 12/11/22 9:55PM - 0 seconds fast 01/19/23 6:18PM - 5 seconds fast 02/22/23 12:48PM - 10.5 seconds fast 04/15/23 9:00PM - 18.5 seconds fast 05/08/23 8:22PM - 22 seconds fast 06/27/23 12:52PM - 30 seconds fast 09/06/23 8:15PM - 41 seconds fast 11/05/23 7:18PM - 51 seconds fast 12/11/23 9:55PM - 58 seconds fast This basically means my watch drifts by a little more than 1 second every week (1sec/~6.29days). For my needs, that's fine. I'm not doing anything in my daily life that requires long-term precision to the second, and I have to reset it every so often anyway for the aforementioned daylight saving time, so I don't mind at all. Other than that, the watch still works great (nearing 4 years now) and the "new" silicone watchband is still great too (although it hasn't hit that 2-3 year breakdown point yet). So, all in all, still happy with it.

I just got my watch yesterday, and after a full day of use, I am happy to report that this is a very solid all-around watch. I got this to replace my previous daily driver, the Timex Men's T49997 Expedition Gallatin Black Fast Wrap Velcro Strap Watch , which started giving up on me after nearly two years of usage. I wanted an inexpensive watch to replace this one, and since I don't really go to any fancy meetings or upscale restaurants, and when I do, I have the appropriate watches for those events. I needed something that take a hit against the occasional door if necessary. Looks weren't really that important to me. Seeing this watch on sale for less than $10, with a boatload of positive reviews, I knew I had to jump on it. When I first got the watch, I expected it to arrive in very simply packaging, nothing too fancy, especially at the price I paid for it. It came in a nice little blue box, and while it wasn't the most premium packaging, it certainly didn'nt seem as though the watch I purchased was cheap by any means. Seeing the big Casio logo on it also reminded me that despite the price I paid, this was supposed to be a quality, durable product, and all of that was confirmed for me the moment I pulled the watch out of the packaging. Its design isn't anything to write home about, and neither are the materials that went into making the watch (no fancy gold here!), but the rubberized strap seemed to go hand-in-hand with the material of the watch's face. The uniform black coloring on the watch makes it look utilitarian, but distinctive at the same time. It might not impress anyone at a party, but then again, that wasn't my intention when purchasing the watch. The two most important functions of a watch for me are its ability to tell the time and its durability. The screen on the watch isn't a 1440p Super AMOLED display with RGB coloring around the mantle, but for the purpose of simply telling time, it is phenomenal! Anyone who owned a digital watch in the 90s will know how it looks. The grayscale image is clear, and the text is extremely easy to read, especially in bright daylight. The time is in a font that's large enough for anyone with moderate eyesight to understand, and the watch even tells us the date, time and day of the week! The watch has other functions like "Alarm" "Stopwatch" and "Timer," but I haven't tested any of those modes out, so I won't mention them here (still, it's nice to know they're available!). Overall, from what little time I've spent with the watch, I can easily say I'm more than satisfied with it. Casio has given the battery a life expectancy of 10 years, but well, if it dies before, I'll update this review for us. If you're just looking for an easy watch to understand, something practical and durable, then look no further, especially if you can find it for less than $10!

First and foremost, I was not, in any way, shape, or form, compensated for writing this review. I find myself depending on reviews to make my decision of purchasing a product or not; so here's my contribution back to the Amazon community. As of this moment, I have had this watch for about 2.5 months. I wanted a watch that could keep track of time while I ran. This watch comes with a timer function that I use quite frequently. It's simple and does the job. I can't quite figure out if it has a split time, however. I end up just timing the total time of my run most of the time anyways. Why did I give this product 5 stars? 1) At less than $15, its price tag alone should at least interest you. 2) It keeps track of time accurately. I had no issues of it running too fast or too slow and having to re-calibrate the time. 3) It is simple. Not only in looks, but in function. I wanted a watch to keep time; I don't need it to keep track of my sleep cycle or how much I ate throughout the day like a smart watch. This watch is simple and clean and it's very easy to read too--in light or dark. 4) It is DURABLE. Over the past 2.5 months, I've been pretty rough with this thing--accidentally banging it on walls; dropping it; swimming with it (it's waterproof)--and the watch still looked as good as new while not messing with its time accuracy. I was finally able to scratch the face of the watch by sliding it 30-40 feet on the gym floor into my bag (which was stupid--I should have just walked over lol). Even then, however, the scratch isn't that noticeable and it is still easy to read the watch. If there's one thing I don't like about the watch, it's the beeping sound it makes whenever you press one of the buttons (excluding the LIGHT function). However, I realize that it's actually quite useful. For one, it gives me assurance that I pressed the button. Two, it makes a different beep when you change the mode into the main time (the beep is higher pitched)--this helps you know that you are on the main screen and not accidentally on time, alarm, or dual time mode. In conclusion, if you want a solid watch to simply keep track of time, then you can't go wrong with this one. Especially with that price. When this one dies out years in the future due to a drained battery, I would strongly consider this one again. If you have any questions, just write me a comment.

The Casio W800HG is a great everyday watch. It’s well-built, easy to read, and the battery life is excellent — it lasts for years without worry. The functions are simple and reliable, making it a solid choice for anyone who wants a dependable digital watch. The only drawback is the watch band. Unfortunately, mine didn’t last long and eventually snapped, which was disappointing given how good the watch itself is. Overall, still a great value for the price, but I wish the strap was stronger.

Excellent watch, excellent value. Prompt shipping, well packed.

Great watch. Easy to set up. Water resistance 100meters aka definitely shower proof. Stop watch. Different types of alarm options, which I don’t use but great to have. Absolutely love that I can see what day of the week it is (Mon/tue/wed/etc), the time (in 12/24h your preference) and the full date (year-month-day) all on one screen powered by a durable little battery. Love the blackout look although due to the contrast It does require a toggle on the light function to see the information clearly depending on available light, but it’s not a biggie and you quickly acclimate. Battery that will supposedly last 10 years is fantastic, especially in these times. The watch is very lightweight, I forget I have it on sometimes. The band is on the longer side, if it bothers you can always just purchase a different replacement band of your preference. If you need to know the time in 2 time zones, this does that too with just a toggle of the function key. I’ve been wearing the original plastic band and it began to show some plastic peeling wear about a month in. Now after 2 months daily wear it’s becoming more prominent, so I will probably be changing the band.

Awesome watch my daily even after more than a year of daily wear no complaints

It's a good watch for the price and it keeps good time i set it to the atomic clock and in a month it only gains 14 seconds the color is military approved its light weight and got plenty of adjustment for a perfect fit the watch has a good appearance as well I got the watch to gift to a person who is going to boot camp soon
