Casio Men's W201-1AV Alarm Chronograph Watch

I first became aware of Casio watches about 1980. I had noticed people wearing the black plastic watches and wondered: What is this? Can't these people afford a real watch? I always wore my Omega Seamaster and regarded it as one of the finer watches. Well, at just about that same time I started running and a friend who was guiding me in the sport suggested that I'd need a chronograph in order to time my runs. My Omega wouldn't do. I bought a Casio, which was just about the only brand available at that time. I wore it off and on for about a week, and my Omega Seamaster was from then on gatherin

Casio still makes great, inexpensive digital watches in the low end of their range that work very well. I was initially looking at an F91 as a lightweight digital watch, but I think this watch is better constructed and has a lot of usable improvements over the F91.-- Build Quality and Case --The watch is extremely light and thin enough to fit under a shirt sleeve. The resin band will fit on small 6 inch wrists all the way up into the 8 inch range. The band does seem very soft and likely to break after significant wear though. It does use actual springbars instead of pins which means it should

My Casio W201-1 AV may be the best watch I’ve owned.At 10mm, the case is relatively thin. The crystal is glass to resist scratching. It has the thinnest, most supple resin band I remember. That makes it easy to put on and comfortable to wear. Resin bands often break where they are flexed to buckle. This more flexible band may last longer. If not, it looks easy to replace.When I check my watch indoors in low light or in the available light outdoors at night, my left hand may not be free to use the backlight. The display is pretty easy to read in low light because the digits are well shaped and

Love this watch. close to the old school of this brand, which you can no longer find. Have worn these sinch high school and I'm 63. Has a low profile, not big and gaudy. Has which most do not is the DAY of the week, AWESOME! and deal breaker for me. This one seems a little thicker than the older, which I don't understand. New band is thinner than the old and fits a much larger wrist. The old watches lasted MUCH longer than the bands. Will see if this one does also, I think it said a 10 year battery life. Only thing I really do not like is the second bars. It has a display of incremental bars f

Excellent watch at a reasonable price This is my second purchase of the same model. The 10 year battery lasted 10 years and two bands! I like the layout and its feature to hold two time zones, one of which can be DST. Its only drawback is common to all models in this price category: a band that eventually breaks before the lifespan of the watch.

Great Watch - - Simple, Easy to Use, Easy to Read. The best sports and activity watches are the ones that are simple, have just a few functions, all of which are easy to access, nothing is confusing, and the few functions all work well WITHOUT fuss or hassle. This is just such a watch. The main screen has a LARGE easy to read time display, with smaller date display at the top. The alarm screen is easy to access, and the alarm is easy to set. The timer is also easy to use. I use this watch at the gym, and for running at night, and it is perfect for the purpose. This watch is medium sized and ve

The color is black. This is a good basic digital watch.

I love Casio sports watches. I have worn them for years and have my favorites, but wanted something specifically for work. My favorite watch (W800) has all the features I need but the case size was sometimes an issue working in tight spaces with my hands. Enter the W201. It has a barely smaller 36mm case than the W800 but is only 9mm thin. it's the perfect low profile case size that is usually only found with the 3-button Casio's, but with all the features of a 4-button.This thing is a gem in tight spaces, it slips effortlessly under shirt sleeve cuffs, doesn't catch when putting on jackets, a
