Casio Collection Men's Watch W-59

I brought this watch before going a trip to Asia, Having always relied on a phone for the time, i realised that with the amount of time keeping i would have to be doing a watch would deffinatley be neccessary. Here's a list of why i gave the watch 5 stars:Build quality: Fine, have no complaints, strap doesnt show any signgs of giving up (after 6 months). Screen is a little scratched but not an issue and only a little noticeable.Ease of use: Easy to set up with decent sized buttons (3) on the sidesWaterproof?: Having been scuba diving down to 18m with this watch and swimming many times its safe to say its truly waterproof, however i haven't been past the 18m mark so couldn't tell you how close it gets to that, as ive heard these stated depths on watches are not always reliable.Battery?: Having had the phone for around 6 months its still going ( as one would hope ), i cant say much more about that.Apperance: Looks fine, decent size (fits my wrist with about 3 holes remaining and id say they are about average male size)Conclusion: perfect for someone looking for a cheap watch that isn't going to give up on you

Very high quality watch looks very cool and the time is accurate

A brilliant little watch, I bought this model instead of the even cheaper one as it was waterproof and I want to use it mountainbiking as my superduper gps computer's time function is too small to read while riding, anyway the strap wasn't really suitable as it was either too tight or too loose so I carefully sliced it off with a stanley knife and put a velcro strap on there, and now it fits snugly. is super light and has a stopwatch and everything, the only negative thing I can say is that the light is useless, unless that is you're happy just knowing what hour it is after dark as the feeble light doesn't reach as far as the minute or second digits, my friends laughed at me but they all have g-shocks to ride around with, but I have fully formed genitals and didn't care..An update, having owned this watch for just over a year I just wanted to say again how brilliant it is, it's been mountainbiking in Britain in all weather's, with quite a bit of trail maintenence, digging cutting branches etc, road biking, sea kyaking and climbing in Mallorca, cycle touring and rough camping in France, used in work! and everywhere else, it's not skipped a beat it does have a couple of dings in the case, but no scratches on the face honestly I can't fault it, well the light really is crap, if it ever breaks I'm getting one again or maybe the gold plated version for a bit of bling on the trails.

I bought this watch as I wanted a good watch that would last a long time. I also wanted it to be cheap. The watch was wrapped ok but could have been done better. Very easy to use as I didn't even have to read the instruction manual! It has a very crisp lcd screen that is very easy to read. It is compact and just the right size. I don't like those bulky watches! The light works well and illuminates the whole screen. As an added bonus I can take it swimming and into the shower. The only concern is that the strap looks VERY easy to break as the clip is made of just plastic. I would reccomend this watch to anybody who wants a cheap,compact and reliable watch. Great deal!

Because of the hazardous conditions that I work in, I often end up breaking/damaging my watches, so I decided on going for a cheap digital watch with the expectation that if it would get past 3 months of wear, it had done well.However, this Casio W-59-1VX has succeeded all my expectations. Firstly, it cost less than a tenner, secondly it is really easy to use and the instructions are plain and straight forward, thirdly it is comfortable and small so it stays (mainly) out of harms way, and fourthly it hasn't taken any damage yet.Some other reviewers noted that it was decent under water, I haven't tried this out yet but in the event that it does stop working, I won't hesitate buying this same watch again.Overall, great value for money.

Firstly you buy it for the look – a classic. Same as the F91 but this one is waterproof. And far less commonplace than the price would suggest. Lots of the big chunky metal ones about and I have received a few compliments about this watch having never gotten any about any other watch. Very retroKeeps time within a couple of seconds a month and the more you wear it the more accurate it is (that’s how quartz watches work)Waterproof – I wear it in the shower, swimming pool, the sea - everywhere. I have had no issues with it and I have used the stopwatch under waterNot worried – whenever I have taken it off and then can’t find it, it doesn’t worry me. The watch only cost £10The figures on the watch make it very easy to read.Stopwatch – It only goes to an hour which is the only downside I can think of.Overall one of the best purchases I have ever made – real value for money. I have had it nearly 2 years
