Casio Collection Men's Watch CA-53W-1ER

Ok, so I have a bias... I'm an 80's child and had one as a kid and I loved it! This is a repro, though faithful to the original. It feels a little small, but I've grown a lot since the 80's! Simple and functional and still very cool. A must for any Back to the Future fans! Points to note - It doesn't have a backlight, so you'll need some exterior light to see it in the dark. I've seen lots of reviews complaining that the date when set doesn't match the day (which can't be changed independently). This is to do with the default date format on the watch: set YEAR first, then MONTH then DAY of month. The day of the week will then show correctly. A great watch and good value nostalgia.

Fantastic watch. Less complicated than its 80s inspiration. No memory buttons, but an actually usable calculator. It doesn’t feel heavy or bulky.

Nice product.

Fantastic bit nostalgia, looks great

So if you like nostalgia and in particular back to the future you will love this watch, its a blast from the past, simple and the original calculator watch so is practical and functional too. The quality of the product is good i can imagine over time the strap becoming damaged by the clasp taking the watch off and putting back on, but that would be a few years from now i think. There is no back light on the display at all so defo retro feel shame as it would be almost perfect if it had one so you could check in low light or in the dark. Functions - 2 clock options to set different times on (in sure there is a use for this but i can't think of one, maybe travel?!) there is a stop watch with lap functionality. The date can be displayed and there is a calculator too. You can set an alarm and the watch will omitt a high pitch beeping. You can also set it to beep the hour too. Overall the watch is exactly as expected and in comparison to the smart watches around today it is extremely light. The reason for the drop of a star is because the packaging was not the best experience it felt like a whole sale version rather than a retail one. Came in a plastic bag no case or casio box so that was a bit underwhelming if I'm honest. Do i recommend the watch absolutely. Are there better experiences possible for the delivery and packaging? Absolutely. But if apl you care about is the watch then just buy it. Job done.

Came as expected, great stuff

Excellent Quality and Functionality built well

Great watch with a huge nostalgia hit, how can you go wrong? Marty Mcfly and Walter White approved straight out of the box. With a long history behind it this watch could easily be a victim of its own success by being left behind by the march of technology but there is still a place for this little charmer. The calculator comes in handy even if the buttons do need a bit of care to use. You get two time zones a stopwatch with split time, alarm and day date calendar. So not ground breaking but a good solid performer, much has been said about the lack of back-light but you get used to not having it. You won't be diving with this watch but washing your hands or getting caught in the rain isn't a catastrophe. So if your looking for a practical watch with good useful features and the added bonus of the movie and TV fame but not a huge budget then this could be the watch for you. It was for me.
