    God tier is an over-used claim in the watch world. Most watches given this accolade struggle to justify the title but here's why the Casio F-91W is God tier:
    1) It's as cheap as a watch can get.
    2) It's incredibly tough.
    3) It's accurate.
    4) It's reliable.
    5) It's comfortable.
    6) It's simple.
    7) It's not pretentious.
    8) It's classless.
    9) Casio have history.
    10) Casio are on top of their game when it comes to digital watches.
    11) If you lose it it's no big deal.
    12) If you damage it it's no big deal
    13) It's the antidote to the sheep buying Apple watches.
    14) It's retro cool.
    15) It has an hourly chime.
    16) You can customise it without ruining it.
    17) It's not a fashion watch.
    18) Casio is a Japanese company.
    19) It's iconic.
    20) It becomes something you cherish.
    Amen.

    I purchased the Casio F-91W recently and absolutely love it, so iconic, understated even though it's been so popular over the last 30 years, well made, keeps the accurate time for a relatively long period, easy to use, comfortable to wear, incredibly lightweight and looks pretty good on your wrist, no matter what clothing you're wearing.
    You just cannot go wrong with buying the F-91W, it's so inexpensive at around £10, but at the same time has all the important and basic features that you would want in a watch.
    Yes the backlight is not great but this somehow adds a bit of charm to the F-91W, and I admire Casio for keeping the same design and functionality of the watch which they could have easily changed over the last 30 years.
    Because the F91-W is so inexpensive it's probably one of only a very few watches where you'll decide to replace it once the battery dies. You'd be saving some money buying a new battery and fitting it yourself but doing it any other way like taking it to a jewellers or watch repair shop would cost more than what you originally bought the F-91W for.
    The only improvements and new features I'd make to the F91-W would be a better and brighter backlight, countdown timer and mute function.

    I've had an F-91W for a long while now, it just does everything it says in the ...err...packet. I have some more premium watches from premium brands but that takes nothing away from when I wear the F-91W when I often catch myself smiling at the honesty of this watch. The battery may only last many years but don't bin and old buddy, batteries cost pence and a little deft use of a screwdriver and your old friend will be resuscitated for may years on. If the strap breaks (it could be great as a pocket watch in a suit) there are many alternatives as well that may cost nearly as much as a new watch but! Would you really want to discard to landfill a good capable friend for the sake of a new band? This watch is an icon right up there with the G-Shock.

  • @briansaiditsoitmustbetrue4206

    I collect watches and I have to say that the F91W is a MUST for any watch collector.
    Here in the UK, they sell for £10.99 GBP
    They do what they say on the tin... TELL THE TIME no added promises.
    They hold a very accurate time for a non-radio-controlled watch. I have tested mine and it is MANY times better than an automatic Seiko for accuracy (Holding the correct time)
    I accidentally put mine in the washing machine on a 2 Hour wash ..It was in my jeans back pocket... It survived perfectly well.
    This watch has a heart of a lion.
    And for the cost if it does somehow get damaged.. Just buy another one.. TBH when the battery dies. It is just as cheap to buy a new watch... It is a design icon from Casio for the same price as a takeaway pizza.

None of these military marketed watches or supposedly issued watches (its super hard to get a watch issued to you, especially when you can buy one of these for next to nothing) and there weren't any of those other gimmick watches, not a lot of G shocks either which is a brand I see a lot of youtubers saying soldiers all have, this one was by far the most popular for all the reasons you listed.

    I can only find this watch for a minimum of $35.00 AUD in Australia! (approximately 18 pounds)
    Has it gone up in price everywhere, or is that just because of where I live? 😢

    I think they estimate that there is closer to around 120 million of the F-91w's sold in the world. That is because it simply is an amazing watch!

    I'm thinking of buying another watch. I already have a Casio watch that I got for 1695/- Indian rupees. I really like the one I wear every day.
