    Royale with the steel strap for the win.

  • @tinentdan
    @tinentdan Před 2 měsíci +25

    For me, the Royale is the coolest. Changed the case for an after market bead blasted stainless steel, with the black rectangle in the middle and sapphire crystal, but left the original rubber strap. Very legible, and decent ilumination. I would just add EL backlight.
    On another note, wouldn't a G-Shock with this design and functionality be great. Add solar and MIP screen and it could be the best since sliced bread. 😂😂😂
    Gshock Royale!!!

    I picked up the 1600 half price after randomly going into a jewellers. I like its big display, and the bands up top give it a nice 80s retro feel. It’s my daily driver and has a few scratches from being a bit smacked around at work, but love it nonetheless.

    My favorite of all these is the giant 3000 (which is even bigger than 1500) !

  • @jouwenlee7829
    @jouwenlee7829 Před 2 měsíci

    No contest, it is definitely the Royale for me because it’s the only Casio comes with its most unique functions - a proper GMT/traveler watch, fully digital mode with small analog-ish clock and world map showing what time zone matching the map.
    It can display 5 time zones without frequent cycling through the world time functions while still displaying the home time zone at the little (a tad hard to see) clock. Little fun trick when press and holding right bottom button on Home Screen to allow automatic cycling of the 4 time zones.
    Best of all, upon reaching to a new place with different time zone, I just press top left and right button to instantly switch to the new time with my original home time.
    Sold my metal version and keeping my Studio Underd0g vibe modded black version with different colour of each window and reverse display at time window.

    One of the Casio's I own is the one in this video called the AE-1300WH its what I call an average very very usable everyday watch with a stopwatch function for referees as seen in this video very cool. It can be used for those days of averageness or when your shirt sleeve is to tight around your wrist with all the buttons done up its slim and easy on the wrist also if some ' see you next Tuesday ' types do manage to steel it well its not exactly a Rolex. ending thoughts, its a very nice watch.

    I has casio as a kid growing up in the 70s and 80s. Got rid sadly. But then I saw the 1200 by chance in Argos for 29 quid and I had to have it. That watch started off my Casio collection again. Then the missus got wind of it and keeps buying F91s. I have 9 Casios in my new collection. So far. This doesn't include all of my other watches I have. I said I wasn't buying any more. Yeah right!

    A while ago I had an analog Casio with a plastic (resin?) strap that failed after less than two years of wear. Are the resin straps on Casio digitals like those reviewed here more durable? I recently got an A158 specifically because it had a steel band; in order to avoid a resin band.

  • @Bugz95

    I searched high and low for a watch with a decent interval timer. Tried a few but none ticked the boxes for what I needed, the GBD200 was great, but for my wrist was a little uncomfortable (gutted as its a banging watch) I came across the ae1300 by chance whilst looking through argos! And it ticked the boxes and was literally the cheapest out of all I looked at 😂
    I liked it so much, when I came across the red and black version, I bought it... because I'm a fan of deadpool and just... because.. right? Still haven't worn that one 😂

  • @fabianchan7
    @fabianchan7 Před 2 měsíci

    I have the WS1600. Let me tell u my journey: I wanted to upgrade from the F91w so i scouted for the perfect digital watch from Casio. My requirement is it have to have a reasonable legible and readable date (well, thats me) for my work. I considered the AE1200 and AE1000 due to the availability of the stainless steel strap (AE1300 has no model with it). The AE1200's date is tiny and hardly visible so i opted for the AE1000. When i got it, i was disappointed as the time digits is long and narrow and touching the plastic bar on top, so the numbers 1 and 7 is almost similar, causing me to misread the time a few times at a glance. I had considered the AE1500 due to its big numbers and i can consider its rubber straps, but it's kinda big n i have small wrists.Then last year the WS1600 came along and it is like a god sent. As soon as it is available in my country i snapped it up. I replaced the rubber strap with the stainless steel one from my AE1000 (yeah it looks weird but it works). The digits are easy to read at a glance and the number 7 has the little extra 'curve', making it easier to read (IMHO Casio should implement this on all their other models). The one thing i wish is Casio doing it away with the plastic bar inside the face (and replace it with lines on the LCD like some models) as the plastic bars actually interfere with the legibility of the time reading (eg some Gshocks) and it cast shadows on the digits itself.
