Casio Men's W800H-1AV Classic Digital Sport Watch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Just got this watch after ordering a few days ago. Strange thing is, you won't find any product information about it on Casio's US website. Let's get to it:

Pros:
1) Not as bulky as a G-Shock:
If you're like me and you want a fully-functioning digital watch without the enormous bulk of a G-Shock, then this watch may fit your bill (even the midsize G-Shocks are tad too large in my book). However, this watch isn't tiny either: The across-width, measured between the buttons on either side but not including buttons, is just a 1/16 inch shy 1.5 inches. The top-to-bottom height, measured between the outside of the top bezel above the "Casio" insignia to the outside of the lower bezel below the "WATER 100M RESIST" is 1 3/16 inches, and just about 1/2 inch thick.
2) Plenty of features:
Dual time, stop-watch with split times, displays the time during the stop-watch function, date setup that knows the day of the week (accounts for leap year too), large display, snooze alarm (!), etc.
3) Great price:
For the value alone I give it the 5-star rating

Cons:
1) Bezel around the crystal is flush with the surface of the crystal - this could lead to scratches if you're not careful
2) Light is not the back lighting "Illuminator" of some other Casio watches - it's green glow that lights from the bottom-left of the display - kinda meh but it does stay on for a few seconds after depressing.
3) Could use a count-down timer.
4) The watch does not allow you keep the light on by keeping the light button depressed.Still turns off after about 1.5 seconds. Can be quite irritating when you're trying to read the watch after waking up all blurry-eyed but I'm sure it's part of keeping that 10 year battery claim.

In closing, this watch isn't gonna win any beauty contests, but it's functions, simplicity, and discrete look are what sold me.

[UPDATE 2010.09.30 - added con number 4 but not removing a star.I'm still wearing the watch and I am still enjoying it]

Armitron Men's 408197RED Sport Silver-Tone Digital Chronograph Watch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It looks even better than in the picture, it has a shiny metal finish that goes great with the red and black.
The buttons are a little complicated to understand, compared to other watches, but after a few days you end up understanding the logic.
Overall, great watch at an unbeatable price, it reminds me of a Casio Gshock i used to have and payed $60 for it, this one was $18 and looks just as good.

Armitron Men's 408105GRY Chronograph Black Strap Digital Display Sport Watch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When the watch delivered, the battery was apparently dead. It cost me an extra $10 to get it changed. You can't just change it yourself because there's a metal piece keeping the strap held in.

It is a terrific watch, but it cost me a hassle.
