Collection Unisex Adults Watch A168WA

I've just dug this out of my drawer tonight and realised that I bought this 12 years ago... and yes it's still running on the same battery! Now I'll be honest, I very rarely wear this watch which probably helps battery longevity (e.g. not using watch functions and light). It's also much too small/light for my wrist (my daily is a 43mm auto so this Casio is tiny compared and feels it), however I can't knock the watch for this as it's a genuine retro classic and I hope they manufacture watches like this forever! As long you're happy with the smaller size, you can never go wrong with this watch, it's up there with the very best based on design, value, mass appeal and just utter retro coolness.

Fantastic and really great for the price. Perfect functionality for me

The Casio A168WA is a classic digital watch that blends vintage style with everyday practicality. The display is clear and easy to read, the backlight works well in low light, and the functions—alarm, stopwatch, and calendar—are simple but reliable. The stainless steel bracelet is lightweight and comfortable, and the battery life is excellent. A timeless design that’s durable, affordable, and perfect for daily wear.

Genuine item (not fake). The module is chrome effect - some kind of resin or plastic which is chromium-plated. Very reliable and great for telling the time, although the font/ numerals is rather small. As I get older, these seem much harder to read. Battery lasts about 10 years, I believe. Bracelet seems fine to me, and is very easy to adjust. As with all of these watches, however, they are not the size of the originals when they first came out. They are rather small, and the numbers are quite hard to read if you are above a certain age.

A timeless classic, the Casio a168 combines the rugged toughness and reliablility associated with the Casio pedigree, with a sleek stainless steel construction and clean digital display, to produce, in my opinion, the perfect budget watch. Any watch collection wouldn't be complete without a vintage casio digital. Wear it for any occasion, super versatile. The features are super intuitive and easy to use. The timekeeping is immaculate. It's just stupidly cheap for what you get. Solid, amazing quality, accurate, reliable, the battery is ridiculous, lasting 10 years plus before needing a replacement. Buy it for life, replace the battery once per decade, kind of a no brainer for the price. I know a guy with a watch collections worth over 30k, and his old digital Casio gets more wrist time than his Rolexs, Omegas or Cartiers. 5 stars all day.

I was a little apprehensive about buying a retro watch, would it be too small? would it be poor quality? Safe to say I was really happy with my purchase. It fits my wrist well, yes it’s not massive but watches don’t have to be. It brought all the memories back of being at secondary school in the 80s and 90s. Happy with the quality, feels like it will last. Had many comments on wearing the watch, people like the retro look and it’s not showing off how much money you have (or borrowed from the bank!). Quality watch that has value for money. The watch was easy to setup, couple of button presses and the date and time was set. Had to quickly change the strap to fit my wrist, this was just using a flat head screwdriver to loosen the clip, move down the strap and push it back. Took a minute or two as no instructions but easy to work out how. Really happy buyer!

Very clean, lightweight but the durability is on point, the brightness of the light is perfect, very well made for everyday use, very easy to adjust the strap to fit on wrist, size is not too small but sits perfectly on my wrist. Truly a classic but beautifully made watch.

Very good value for money, good quality material. Recommend buying.

Preso in offerta e sono rimasto davvero soddisfatto. Il Casio A168WA è un vero must have per chi ama lo stile vintage anni ’80.

La qualità costruttiva è ottima per il prezzo: cinturino comodo, display chiaro e la classica illuminazione Casio che dà subito quell’effetto rétro iconico. Leggero, comodissimo da indossare e super versatile Per quello che costa è difficile trovare di meglio. Semplice, affidabile e senza tempo. Consigliatissimo!

■本体 初めてチプカシを買ってみたんですが、最初の印象は画像で見るよりかなりチープかなと感じましたが、すごいハマりそうです。 ホールはこれはこれでどこか未来感があるし、ベルトさえ違うものに変えたら色々楽しめそうです。チプカシ調べている内に色々欲しくなってしまって、最初はスタンダードっぽいこちらにしました。 A158やA164との大きな違いは背面のLEDライト？の部分だと思いますが、すごく見やすいです（画像）。 ただ、ライトが光る時間が短いというかボタンを押している間のみ光るという仕様になっています。7年寿命ということで節約してるのでしょうか。 ■サイズ調整 純正ベルトの調整はとても楽です。マイナスドライバーがあれば直ぐに変えられるので手軽で良かったです。

Not original, screen reading is almost invisible

Lovely retro watch

The first watch I received looked like it had already lived a full and mysterious life. It was used, damaged, and possibly had stories to tell. Thankfully, the replacement was sent quickly, and the new one arrived looking exactly how it should. As for the watch itself, it’s classic Casio in all the best ways. The A168WA has that timeless retro look that somehow works whether you’re going for “practical adult” or “1980s tech genius who knows the launch codes.” It’s lightweight, comfortable, easy to read, and has that simple, reliable Casio quality that has been making people feel oddly loyal to digital watches for decades. For the price, it’s a great deal. It looks good, works well, and has way more style than it has any right to at this price point. Once I got the proper replacement, I was really happy with it. Classic look, dependable quality, and affordable enough that you don’t have to treat it like a museum artifact.
