W217H Series | Men’s Digital Watch | 50M WR | 1/100 Second Stopwatch | LED Backlight | Countdown Timer | 100 SEC Chronograph | Daily Alarm | Hourly Time Signal | 7 Year Battery

I've always had poor punctuality. I don't want to, I just wasn't raised right in some ways and am undoing some bad habits. I've never owned a watch before and the idea of a smartwatch is unappealing to me- I want to be LESS plugged into screens, not more. This is my first watch and it's helping my on-timeness. I want to look at it because the black and dusty gold are so visually appealing to me, along with the '90s digital aesthetic. Looking at it so often keeps the time ever in my mind, as does the hourly beep feature. I've got bad vision and the larger digits than F91W are perfect for the distance from my eyes to my wrist without making for too big a face. I don't think I like visually striking watches and the size of this case is perfect for my wrist and style. It doesn't feel like you spent $300 on it, of course, but in terms of build quality, it feels like you spent more than $30 for sure. I'd compare it to Koss headphones- it probably won't last forever, but it'll last for years if you take care of it and when it comes time for replacement, who cares? It's $30. That value proposition is unbeatable in my opinion. The box is the classic blue and white Casio packaging and included is the plastic store display stand- nothing pretty, but still thoughtful packaging in my opinion. Setting up the watch is beginner friendly and straight forward with the included manual. I got the buttons figured out mostly without the manual in around 5 minutes and I've never set up a watch before. Switching between 24hr and 12hr time is handy for my line of work. The alarm and stopwatch functions are intuitive and useful. The featureset and design are truly everything I need and nothing I don't as I'm not a jetsetter, a diver, a stockbroker or a sailor. The backlight is bright and an attractive amber color on the black with gold line model (hold to illuminate). The buttons are easy to find in the dark and easy to press without being accidentally pressed to easily once you get used to wearing a watch. I've ordered 18mm lug width adapter brackets for mine and replaced the stock band with a NATO G10 band that I find a tad more attractive and infinitely more durable according to reviews. I got the adapters here on Amazon for $8. The quick release pins that came preinstalled with the stock resin band attached seem to be of better quality than the aftermarket ones available on Amazon. They came out and went back in smoothly without damaging the resin case or their mounting holes. I really do think the stock resin band is attractive enough, especially for what you pay, but it did make my wrist sweat, I've heard they crack and crumble with time, and I just like fiddling with stuff to be frank. If you're looking for a sub-$100 watch, I'd save your money, skip anything analog and go with your choice of Casio- I imagine they're all as competently designed, functional, and consistently build as the W217H. Plus, they are just plain COOL- and always will be.

Great quality watch that is easy to program and understand. Great price that provides a tough watch to last a very long time. Comes with its own stand inside the box to hold up and display.

It’s basically a larger F91W with an improved light. Nice sized watch for 8 1/2” wrist. (See photo for size comparison with 40mm Apple Watch) The light works great and is easy to read in the dark. It’s very light on the wrist and durable. The big face makes it easy to read the time at a glance. The alarm is loud enough to get the job done, but I wouldn’t rely on it as my wake up alarm. I like the look of the watch and I really like the lack of distracting features. I wish it had a countdown timer.

Backstory: I’ve been wearing an Apple Watch for the past 4 years, 24 hours a day. I recently decided that I wanted to unplug a bit, I got tired of my wrist blowing up from group texts, and having to charge the thing every single day. Research: I can say with confidence that I did more research on Casio watches than I’ve ever done on something I planned to spend $20 on. I watched TONS of YouTube videos, and I ended up buying this. I looked in to the f91w and I almost bought that. It’s classic, I loved the look but the one thing some people complained about was the small size. I looked at all of the photos in the reviews and it was always so hard to get perspective, because you never know who’s wearing the watch. I didn’t want some enormous G shock, and I didn’t want something that would look like a child’s watch. After receiving this, all I can say is that it looks like what I thought the f91w was going to look like from a size perspective. Search the f91w on Amazon and you’ll see that it’s a best seller in the womens watches category. All I can say is that if you are an adult male, I can’t imagine a world where this would be too big of a watch for you. I’m 6’0, 195lbs, but my wrists are 7 inches or a bit larger. Even my pictures are a bit deceiving, this watch looks and feels smaller in person than it does in any picture or video you’re going to find on it. Unless you really want a SMALL watch, this should fit any man and probably most women just fine. I can’t even imagine how small the f91w is on the wrist. About the watch: man this thing is just what I hoped it would be. It tells and keeps time great so far, you can see the screen from pretty much every conceivable angle, it’s paper light, and it it looks good. I watched a YouTube video that talked about the black and gold looking more like an adults watch rather than a toy. I love the retro look of the black and blue trim version, but I believe the reviewer was correct, and I’m glad I got this one. From any distance it’s pretty inconspicuous and looks almost like a smart watch. Up close it gives a classic retro vibe. It’s a $15 watch, but that’s the appeal. If it breaks in a year, I’ll throw it away and buy a new one without a single regret. Final note: The backlight on this is fantastic, which was another reason I bought it over a lot of the other similar Casios. The one on the f91w seems pretty terrible.

I originally bought the F91W, but the numbers were hard to read for me. This one is perfect. Easy to ready, very comfortable, and looks very nostalgic. My new evryday watch.

Cheap watch with basic functions such as alarm and stopwatch. Working in healthcare, I wanted something easily cleanable (water resistant) and cheap that I wasn’t worried about getting damaged. This watch has held up very well to daily use. Gains a little time each month but fairly accurate for my purposes. Very light and comfortable to wear.

I have several watches from Omega to Seiko and many micro brands in between. I got this watch because it reminded me of my first watch as a kid. As soon as I got it this it has been my main time piece for the last few months. I don't have to wind my watch or set the date ever. the price is still amazing as it ever was. It's easy to read and the light is great. I don't have to worry about the lume not being charged by light at night. The band is comfortable and fits my wrist as a full adult man. I have worked on my car and have done a bunch of yard work without any damage to this watch at all. I would suggest buying a screen protector but other that that its sturdy and keeps perfect time.

Exactly what i wanted! Bigger than the fw91. I have a 7inch wrist and so this is the perfect size for a slim and small casio. I will never go smaller than this. Better lighting too. Overall love the color

What a great digital watch, regardless of the low price point. The larger LED gold display is far more readable than the F91, and the illuminator function is extremely useful at night or in low light. The band is OK, but the "HEMSUT 18mm Quick Release Nylon Watch Band" looks fantastic with the gold dial, and much easier to strap it on to your wrist. I haven't needed the stopwatch/countdown features yet, but they do work well. I do use the Alarm which has a gentle rapid beeping sound for about 10 sec.

The Casio F91w is a classic in the watch world, sold in the millions and previously worn by presidents and terrorists alike. However, if you have a larger wrist (mine is 7.5"), then it's a bit too small and can look like a kid's watch when worn. The Casio W217h is the bigger brother of that classic of the watch world, with a larger case and longer strap, but retaining the original retro styling of the F91w. In terms of features, minimalist is the word. It has time/day/date, then a single alarm setting, and stopwatch. You can set an hourly chime and choose between 24hr clock, and that's it. But isn't there something nice and simple about that in this day and age, as opposed to a smartwatch that does a million things and beeps endlessly with notifications and needs charging every day? Less is more sometimes, and this watch does everything you need it to. The display is clear with large digits, and the backlight is excellent, making the display glow orange in the dark, which is pretty cool. The styling is retro and though the F91w probably is slightly better looking overall due to it's slimness, this watch looks much better when worn than the photos suggest, so will grow on you. It's robust enough that you can use it as a daily beater without worrying about damaging it due to the low cost, and is so light you forget you are wearing it. I own a number of watches including more expensive ones, but this one ends up on my wrist the most and it can't be faulted for the money. The Casio B650 is the silver stainless steel version which I ended up buying too as I liked the design so much, and that is also an excellent choice if you want something slightly different.

Comprei no dia 28/06. Vendido e entregue pela Amazon Estados Unidos (com previsão de entrega para 22/07). No dia 29/06 enviaram e chegou em São Paulo em 02/07. Depois demorou uma semana de São Paulo até a minha residência (região metropolitana de Porto Alegre), chegando no dia 08/07 No app, o preço estava R$210,00, mas ao colocar no carrinho foi aplicado um desconto e recalculado o imposto, o que fez o preço cair para R$184,00 Pensei que o relógio fosse um pouco maior, já que mencionado no YT como “larger version” do f91. Apesar disso, estou satisfeito. Parece ser bem frágil a pulseira, mas dizem que é um relógio resistente O relógio é original (além da confiabilidade por ser vendido pela Amazon, fiz os testes para verificar) A circunferência do meu punho tem 19 centímetros

Authentic products and fast delivery. The watch? Great retro style from the 90s. Light weight you can barely feel it on your wrist. Nice lighting too. Little bigger than f91 w but it feels the same. Older brother I’d say.

Cómodo, práctico y bonito. ¿Quieres un reloj bueno, bonito y barato? No busques más, Casio es la mejor opción.
