The style of the watch is great. Not for everybody but perfect for some, like me. It gets some laughs because it is gold (in color) but just a basic casio digital. Its kind of a gag but very stylish to me. You will probably be the only person you know wearing one of these. I particularly like the flat gold colored plastic face, which is a nice subtle contrast with the shiny golden metal. In the 10 or 12 months that I have been wearing it the time has never wavered. The full-screen blue backlight is nice looking and fun, but it stopped working shortly after I got it, then suddenly started working again briefly, and now never works. (still keeping time perfectly though) I bought it here on Amazon, but it is not stocked by Amazon. I think these ones for sale are old stock, with batteries running all the while. ...Also, having not been very careful and washing my hands often at work, the watch has tarnished on many of the edges. I havent looked closely, but it appears irreversable. Still,...Read more

Please pardon my english, it is not my born language
Im a 19 year old male, student.
I like this watch a lot.
seems to me that it has been seeling good, first time i bought it from watch colony it was $20.00, that was less than a year ago, then I ordered another one and the cost was 22.00.. now it is 24.00...
however,
i did not give the watch 5 stars because it is still feels cheap, it is reallly light, and the case is not metal, it is acrilic wich is easily scratched.
Don't get me wrong it is very fashionable, that is the main reason i bought it, and I had my doubts about water resistance, but I swam 1,000 meters with it and it is perfectly fine.
I wouldn't risk on going more than 3 meters deep though.
the "beep" is fun, the light is perfect, alarm wont wake me up, but it is fine for other things. '
I think it runs a little behind, or ahead Im not sure, what i do know is that i...Read more

I was looking all over the place for this gold Casio and I finally found it! I currently have the silver one but I was keen to have a pimping gold one and I must say, I'm totally enjoying it. Hardly anyone wears these old school watches anymore but I think they be the illest. Anyway, bottom line is I love this watch. Has a stop watch, alarm, date and time - the essentials. This is what a watch is meant to be about.
