    The DW 290 watch is aboslutely great! This should be called the Monster Casio watch. I had my first one 21 years ago as a present, being exposed to a various tough conditions during these years and it is still ticking with only minor scratches on the screen, two battery replacements and two strap replacements! Just purchased my second one after finding it is still being produced by Casio. Excellent timepiece / masterpiece and a great review of it. Thanks!

      Do you find the electro luminescence backlight to be of same color and intensity? I see mine as a darker shade of blue while the newer ones have a hint of green

    Great tutorial. Thanks. I lost mine 2 years ago during a jog session when i arrived home and realized it was no longer on my wrist. Since then i really missed the watch. Kept on buying other casio including the g-shock but non of them have such attraction such as the Dw 290.
    Yesterday i finally ordered the watch again from local seller and cant wait to have it back on my wrist 😊

    The history of DW290 start with the amazing Casio DW 340 WR300M , and after that Casio made the W740 WR100 and finally Casio made the famous DW290.

    Thank-You so much Sir, i have owned my CASIO G-SHOCK DW-5610SU-3 (MODULE [3229]) for 120 days now and could not figure out how to auto-repeat the countdown timer, even though i've watched your tutorials numerous times.. i have the green on black 2-tone (1-piece) bezel.. i intend to swap the ADJUST and LIGHT pushers as i use the adjust function repeatedly throughout each day but never use the backlight.. the only use i have for the LIGHT button is to activate the AUTO-REPEAT function, which i have wanted to utilize several times now, but could not remember how.. the only other modification/upgrade i would like to have is a Nuclear Diamond Battery..

      if anyone is wondering, i need the AUTO-REPEAT function of the COUNTDOWN TIMER if i am ever to step in and direct traffic due to power outages, rolling blackouts, rolling brownouts, Coronal Mass Ejections, or Electro Magnetic Pulses.. also useful for timing ones rounds, if one patrols on a scheduled basis, or not spending too much time on any one task or at any one location..

      No worries, after that you just Google repeated years for 2030 and you put whatever is offered between 1995 and 2029 and I think the calendar should then be correct for another 7 years
