CasioMen's Silver Tone 25 Memory Calculator Databank Watch

After seeing this in person I don't know why I waited so long to add this one to my collection. It's quite an attractive watch, even if for more the geeky type to fawn over. I love the retro look to it, but also not feeling like it's just an old relic on my wrist. The date/day are large enough and easy to read, the orange backlight looks nice but I wish it lit up more than just the left side, perhaps being located at the top would disperse the light better over the whole display.I was concerned it would appear too big on my wrist or not sit quite well with the two section design, I can safely say it does no look overly large in the least. It's quite comfortable to wear, with the band being easily adjustable, just unlock a tab with a small flathead and push back in once you find your size. I was expecting the case and strap to feel a bit heavier, has more a plastic feel to it moreso than I figured it was. Not so much a problem, I just hope it holds up alright especially for the $45 price considering my F91-W for a quarter of the cost feels indestructible.Buttons are easy to set, though I still need to play around with all the features still. They are responsive even though are a small size, I also hope these hold up well with time. I'm pretty happy with how it looks and feels, hugs the wrist quite nicely so it does not look bulky or like a toy. I may replace the band at some point with a higher quality metal band, as is the stock one is pretty nice.Far as the seller goes, the watch came inside a used looking box with a F91-W sticker inside it. I was expecting brand new but if it's not it still came in a great looking condition.

I have been wearing casio calculator watches for about 5 years now, and recently had a telememo 30's strap break. I know it's an easy fix but it was an excuse to upgrade to something a little bit classier. This is much sleeker than the previous model I had and looks great. The numbers on the face are much easier to push than the telememo 30, which has pretty tough buttons. The strap is easily adjusted and the brushed finish looks good. The only things I liked more on the telememo 30 was the backlight and the water resistance feature. This watch only has one lamp on the left side, which leaves the right side somewhat dim. It's not a problem as I can still read the time in the dark, but the indiglo style light on the telememo 30 was much brighter and lit the entire face evenly.Would give it 4.5 stars if I could, .5 off because of the dim backlight and lack of water resistance. Otherwise very satisfied with the product.5 YEAR UPDATE: I've worn this watch every day only taking it off for showers and getting in water for the past five years and it is still on its first battery. I haven't had any problems wearing it while washing the dishes or walking in the rain. There is some wear on it as can be expected after five years. The printing on the number buttons has faded to the point where you can't really read them but after wearing it for five years I don't really need to see the print to know what numbers are which. The lines dilineating the number buttons are still visibke. The silver paint around the face does scratch a bit but the plastic underneath is a similar color so it's not noticeable unless you look at it closely. I still get compliments on this watch all the time. I like it so much I bought the gold color as well, but still prefer to wear the silver as my daily watch.

I bought this watch as an upgrade from the black rubber watchband Casio, and I'm not disappointed at all! I wanted a Casio that could serve the same functions, but do more and this was it. It's multilingual, displays the full date, has a light, and has multiple alarms--plus, it's made of metal, so I know it'll last as compared to the rubber I had for my previous Casio. It's very sleek and I was able to adjust it to fit my rather small wrist with some additional effort. I had to look-up a YouTube video to figure it out unfortunately, but it wasn't too difficult at all with the internet's guidance. I was worried that it wouldn't adjust small enough to my wrist, since it's a Men's watch and so I expected it to run bigger, but it fits! Overall, it's definitely thinner than I had expected based on the images, which is great. The metal band links lay on my wrist nicely, so it isn't bulky at all either. The instruction manual it comes with is very thorough and clear about how to use each function, too (there's just so many!).

Disclaimer: I did not test anything time related as far as this watch goes, I am speaking based solely on the size, calculator function, and backlight.The watch face so small, that it is impractical to use this calculator. On top of that, the backlight only lights the left side of the watch really. Even if you manage to use the light to read the time, the light stays on so briefly that you can't even effectively use the calculator just off the power of the back light. It doesn't look terrible, but it was not what was expected. It still looks cool though.

I have one of these in every color, material, and model I can get my hands on. Bada**, unique, various functions (my dream is to one day ask for someone’s number at a bar then meticulously type it into my Casio calculator watch and save it into the originally revolutionary and useful, now obsolete, database it possesses), and is easily the best conversation starter in any setting, especially when you’re a young female, because everyone worth getting to know will recognize this beaut, feel euphoric nostalgia while remember the happy moments from their childhood in the 80s, relate those feelings to you as a person and your character through assimilation, then say “is that a Casio calculator watch?” Almost want to give a terrible rating to defer others from purchasing so I can keep this unique life-changing timekeeper to myself, lest it loses its magic.
