CasioMen's AW48HE-8AV Ana-Digi Dual Time Watch
P**P
Maybe not the fanciest of gadgets, but certainly a classy selection.
I love this watch. In an age of smart watches and all kinds of fancy gadgets it's nice to get back to basics. I found myself unexpectedly enraptured with the combined analog and digital faces on the watch, as I was able to use it to view the time in two timezones at once. You'd be surprised how handy that can be after a while. I also frequently found myself using the alarm function, although I wouldn't recommend it for waking yourself up in the morning; and I was surprised by how useful the stopwatch can be.The watch, being small, doesn't have any numbers on the face, so if you need to know the *exact* time you'd do well to buy yourself a watch with a digital display. This will do that, but it might be advisable to buy a larger digital display if that's what you're going to be using it for.My only complaint is that setting the time can be a little fiddly, as you have to slam a button to get the watch's minute hand to progress by about 30 seconds at a time if I'm recalling properly. You can hold it down to get the time to progress faster, but if you happen to miss the correct time you'll have to go all the way back around again. That can be annoying if, for example, Daylight Saving Time has just ended.Also, my watch broke while I was washing the dishes at work because I completely misunderstood the phrase "water-resistant." Don't repeat my mistake, folks: Water-resistant and waterproof do not mean the same thing. This isn't the watch's fault--let me make that clear--that's just me being dumb.So, in summary, this is a great little watch for a reasonable price. Maybe not the fanciest of gadgets, but certainly a classy selection.

Good men's watch with some style
This watch is very attractive, IMHO, and very reasonably priced. I like the option of setting the smaller digital display to read either the current date or to duplicate the time in digital format.The only negative comments I would make are: 1) The back faceplate is rather shiny. If the light hits it just right, the reflections can sometimes interfere with seeing the hands. This isn't a big problem, but does take a bit getting used to. 2) The protective, clear faceplate is cheap plastic and can scratch easily. I have a small nick in mine and that's got me a bit bummed. I guess the lesson is, only wear this watch when you're not going to get your wrist in a tight spot where it could get scratched against something real solid.

Great everyday watch
This watch does it all at a nice price. It has enough style for the office (unless you're an exec), it is waterproof and rugged enough for weekend and sports use. It has a small to mid size face which is good for people with smaller wrists. It all plastic which is a minus for most but great for me since I work in electronics where metal bands are a safety hazard.Pros:- Battery life is tremendous 3+ years.- Durability and ruggedness is very good.- Water-resistant - Unless you scuba, you don't have to take it off for anything.- Great quality at a low price.Cons:- The dial is not lighted if you really need to read it in the dark don't choose this watch.- It's not free

Too thin
This ⌚ was a little too thin for my liking.

Classy look for its price
I've had this watch for a couple of weeks and really like it. It has a very classy appearance. With the analog time (hands) for time and the digital display set to Month, day, day of the week plus an alarm that can be set when I need it, it is perfect for my needs. I am not a pretentious watch person. On your wrist it looks like it should cost a lot more.

It's a Watch
I've been wearing this watching for years and I honestly love it. It has a unique look that fits with everything. Whether I am wearing a shirt and tie for work, a t-shirt and shorts at the gym, or swimtrunks at the beach this watch never looks out of place. The analog face is a silvery-gray with golden hands and dots at the numerals. It glints slightly enough to look classy, but not to the point where it's distracting. It's low key, low maintenance, and waterproof to boot! I wear it almost 24/7! The digital clock at the bottom is subtle, yet clear, with different features such as an alarm and stopwatch. My only complaints are that the face of the watch is plastic and scratches somewhat easily. While the scratches are usually all but invisible except when viewing up close, under light, and at the right angle it is still worth mentioning that it isn't the most durable of watches. I've had the band of this watch snap once, and I found that replacing the band costs about as much as the watch did in the first place -which isn't much at all. It does everything an analog/digital watch should do (except light up). It's a quality buy for the price Casio is asking!
