5.0 out of 5 stars Classic digital watch.

It's a great digital watch with quite basic functions as expected. The face is nice and clear with no reflection problems with the acrylic crystal. The strap is surprisingly comfortable, very lightweight with plenty of holes to fit any wrist. Although due to the material and how the strap is connected I can hear a little creaking noise coming from that area occasionally when it's quiet, but if I just adjust how it's sitting the noise goes away. My daughter liked the watch and wanted me to buy her one so she got a transparent pink one as you can see from the photo. She's 12 and small at that and it fits her wrist just fine. Although I will say the strap on her watch is more plasticky than mine. Also I didn't buy the pink one from Bolo as I found it much cheaper elsewhere.I've had a few splashes on the watch whilst doing dishes and such with no issues whatsoever so the water resistance is fine. The watch hasn't picked up any scratches so far and I wear it daily, even to work.As far as functionality is concerned it has the watch (obviously), a light, an alarm, a stopwatch, day/date display, a chime function and an am/pm or 24 hour display. The alarm is quite quick and easy to set and double beeps every second for twenty seconds if it isn't cancelled. The chime function double beeps once on the hour every hour but can be turned off if you prefer; I have mine on as I quite like it. The stopwatch does what it should and can be paused and restarted but doesn't have a lap element so is limited in its usefulness. EDIT 30/11/24 - I recently discovered that if you press the light button whilst using the stopwatch that it does pause the stopwatch and displays the word "lap". Pressing the light button again takes you back to the stopwatch which has continued counting in the interim so it turns out the stopwatch does indeed have a lap function.You can set the day and the month but the watch only displays the day and date but not the month. I don't have a problem with this but some might. The light is pretty woeful; a small green light on the left that only really illuminates the left hand side of the display. You can read the full time in the dark with the light on but it's not easy. If you ever owned a digital watch in the '80's or '90's you'll probably be aware of what the light is like. There is a mod that can be done if you are so inclined to improve the light. If you search on YouTube for "Casio Module 593 (F91W) Backlight Spreader Mod Installation Tutorial", I may do this at some point.There is no timer function so if you need that I would look elsewhere. I use the alarm as a timer sometimes as like I said it's pretty easy and quick to set (if you hold down the select button for a second or two the numbers cycle faster).All in all I'm very pleased with my purchase and would recommend this watch to anyone looking for a cheap, reliable digital piece of nostalgia!

5.0 out of 5 stars The same great quality I always expect from this Casio watch

M.L. · 7 March 2025

My husband has been using this particular model of Casio watch (or very similar) for the past 20 years or more.After about 2 years, the strap starts to break or tear, and the battery inevitably gives out. However, you can't fault this watch as it's reliable, durable and easy to read. Given the very reasonable price, it's also a fantastic basic watch if you just want something with which to tell the time and maybe a few other simple features.This one is no exception and we're very happy with it!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best workman's watch on the market

I have had three of these watches over the last thirty years. All of them have kept the time to within 5 seconds !! Amazing accuracy at such a low cost.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect beater watch - quite small for big wrists

A.W. · 4 January 2024

I needed a cheap watch that could satisfy all my needs for the summer, and I knew that there was one standout contender: the F91-W. This watch is perfect for everyday use, whether thats sports, doing DIY or having an easy to read watch on late night outs.Personally, I found that the watch does wear very small on large wrists, but I was expecting it to be small anyway. Furthermore, the light-up feature is rather dim, making the time quite hard to read when it is not fully dark. In pitch black however it work just fine. My other comment would be that it is only water resistant, not waterproof. This means that it should cope with rain and light water, but not for complete submersion. But, at the end of the day, the watch was cheap as chips, so there is not a lot to worry aboutOverall, this watch satisfied my needs in every way - when my battery eventually runs out (in many years), I will definitely get myself another one!

It arrived on time and works well thank you!

1.0 out of 5 stars Not very good quality anymore

B. · 15 June 2025

The quality of these watches seems to have massively dropped. My husband and I have had these before and they have lasted years. I ordered one and it snapped, got a refund and now this one has a cracked screen! My son doesn’t know how it happened, I bought this thinking they were pretty indestructible and it’s broken again within about two weeks!

3.0 out of 5 stars Different from my old one but no choice as I need a watch.

D. · 11 June 2025

It seems ok but not as good as my original one which is years old. I’ll keep it to see if I can use it without it going wrong.

Jolie et légère

unbeatable value for money

O.T. · 10 February 2023

Just unbeatable value for money. cheap, realiable, no useless stuff you don't need, works, waterproof, actually pretty scratch-resistant, battery has lasted now for 1.5 years including using the light for seeing the time at night and it still seems fine. I work with solvents that usually warp plastics (including my old swatch) but here the rubber strap is still in good condition and the watch face is totally unaffected. I'm done with fancy watches - I'm only taking this one off when it's dead, then I'll rebuy and put the next one on.
