I LOVE THIS WATCH - and I'm a female :-) October 16, 2008

I've been wearing this watch since high school (over 15 years ago). I bought it for track so I could pace my practices. I can't find any watch out there that has the countdown feature that repeats, so I can set it to ding at me every 3 minutes or 2 hours or whatever. I love the digital - it's easy to read in a pinch. And I'm not really aware of time, so the hourly alarm really helps me keep track. I do agree that it is not the most attractive watch - especially for a female, but I just can't get enough of this light-weight, easy to use watch. I've had probably 5 of this exact watch. I lost my last two and I've worn out the rest. I try to wear other watches.. analog, silver, gold... that are more fashionable, but I just can't break away from this watch. I was heartbroken when Target stopped selling it, and elated when I found it on the web. I'm excited to know it's a 20 year old design... that way I can be confident that it will be around for a while. If not, I'd buy 50 more so I could make sure I always had one! That's how much I LOVE this watch... I just ordered it off this site after being without it for a year (did I mention Target?) and I cannot wait for it to arrive!! I should have bought 2...

These watches bring back good memories. When I was young, I always wanted a watch because I thought it looked cool. One day that wish came true and the Casio F28W-1 came into my possession. It went through years of abuse (I was young after all) and one day the fastener part of the band broke, which I fixed by taking a small piece of metal cut from a paper clip, bent it, and attached to the band. That lasted for another couple of years until it finally died for good.

br /_______________________________________________________________________________
br /
br /I decided to purchase the Casio W71-1V Model simply because it had the most functionality. For less than $20, they simply are the best.
br /
br /It's Super Thin (this was a priority to me, because I HATE HATE HATE wearing bricks), durable (this depends on how much you abuse it), VERY comfortable (the band is lightweight and the fastener does not hurt unlike casio gshocks which have a heavy plastic band with a metal fastener that hurts after prolonged use), useful, and very simple.
br /
br /It is important when choosing a watch that you look at the Water Resistance. Some users have complained of their watches dying after water exposure. Here is some info taken directly from the Casio manual.
br /
br /Water Resistantant means it can only withstand rain, splashes, etc.
br /50M Water Resistant means it can withstand rain, splashes, swimming, car-washing, etc.
br /100M and Higher Water Resistat means it can withstand rain, splashes, swimming, car-washing, snorkeling, diving, scuba diving, etc.
br /
br /Common Sense really.
br /
br /The only downside of wearing these watches is that you can never go back to any other watch. Once you wear it, your stuck for life (or rather the life of your watch :). You'll hate every watch after wearing this. A great addition to your cart if you need to qualify for free shipping.
br /
br /Hope you enjoy these watches as much as me,
br /oliver
Durable, Functional and Long Lasting. Well worth the money October 7, 2005

I've used this model for past 10+ years. I don't remember when I first used this one, but the last one I had finally died after about 10 years, earlier this spring. So, I bought another one, exactly same model. I don't remember whether I had this model or another cheaper model before the previous one.
br /
br /But the previous one went with me from the cold winters of Chicago to the sizzling summers of Iraq where temperature was well over 140+ degrees (I know this b/c others with Suunto watch with thermometer told me). Used it when I was swimming, kayaking, running, biking, etc. etc. I remember changing the battery at least once and changed the strap 2 or 3 times.
br /
br /So, when the last one died in April of 2005, I went out and bought another one. This one should last another 10 years. What more can you ask for for $20?
Nobody will say wow, but ........ January 10, 2006

I really like this watch. It's very comfortable. It is light and thin. It is the only watch I've had in recent memory that I don't take off when I work.
br /
br /If you want to try to impress people with your cool watch, look elsewhere. If you want a nice watch for yourself, look at this watch or a similar one.
br /
br /Yes, it has a light so you can check the time when it is dark.
br /
br /By the way, this design is more than 20 years old. When you set the year, you can set it as far back as 1985.
br /
br /Hope this helps.
Great watch -- I just keep buying them January 11, 2006

I really like this model of watch. I have been wearing this model for probably ten years or so. I regularly use the alarm, countdown timer, and stopwatch functions. They are easy to get to and intuitive to use. I like being able to see the day of the week, month, day of the month, hours, minutes, and seconds without pushing a button. I find the backlight barely bright enough, but seldom have a need for it. I used to use the alarms more than I do now and had one or two units fail after the warranty period with the speaker stuck in a position that quickly drains the battery. They're so inexpensive, I just bought the same model again, rather than try to learn how another one works. Since it's water resistant, it's nice to be able to just wash the whole watch and plastic band occasionally.
