    Almost... the best Ana-Digi watch out there.       Product Reviews
    by:       on: 12-Jun 2006

    I am a big fan of analog watches as i can somehow calculate time differences quicker with them... but I also wanted a stop watch and calendar on my wrist.

    This watch gives the best combination of both with a large easily readable digital display along with the 2 hands (which are illuminous.. glow in the dark). The resin strap is more comfortable in the summer and doent pinch the hair on my wrist. The analog time is a little hard to set so i rarely change it when travelling across timezones and instead switch cities using the built in list which adjusts the digital time. The large multi lcd display also makes it easier to use than the rest of the ana-digi's out there with the teeny weenie lcd near the bottom of the dial.

    The downsides... The stainless steel bezel is a little too shiny for me (some kinda matte wouldve looked cooler). Perhaps the metal version of this watch mentioned in the other reviews actually has the matte finish. I will try uploading a few photos of this watch for comparison if allowed. The watch is otherwise very good except for the thickness of the case, which is a little too much for my wrists. The exact measurements being 1.5cm thick and 4 cm wide for my 5cm wide wrists.

    This wouldve been the perfect watch if only it was 5mm thinner... i suggest u measure my given dimensions against ur wrist size before buying.
    Really cool looking resin band Casio       Product Reviews

    Also check my review for AQ160WD1BV, the metallic version.
    I own both. In terms of functionality and features, both the metal and resin band versions are exactly the same.

    This resin band version looks little bit different, because of the black resin band, and a black ring above the dial as opposed to metallic ring. Given a choice i would choose the metallic version of this watch. But the resin band is very cool. Its lighter weight, the dial is slightly thinner.

    This watch has world time, countdown timer, stopwatch, snooze alarm, everything you ever want, except
    1) Solar power
    2) Automatic time setting (waveceptor)

    It also has the illuminator.

    I would recommend this watch to anyone who is looking for a cool looking resin band casio.

    One slight potential problem is, if you have a wide wrist, then this watch may not be for you. The resin band is not long enough for think wrists.
    Get the AQ160WD-1BV instead       Product Reviews

    Read my review of the Casio AQ160WD-1BV, similar watch with a metal band for only a few dollars more.
