Casio F-91WC Collection Men Watch
Shaped in an iconic casio design, this watch features a digital display, stopwatch and an LED backlight. The watch is housed in a durable resin case. Suitable for everyday styling.
Display Illumination
LED backlight for the digital display (Full auto LED light, selectable illumination duration, afterglow).
I have a black one which I’ve had for 3 years, never needed to change the battery and still works like a charm. Bought this one for a colour change and works like a dream. Always recommend this watch to my colleagues.
My ten-year-old daughter loves this watch, especially the stop watch function. The orange colour is lovely and vibrant, true to the image – and the strap is comfortable and very easy to use.
I only wear a watch when I am teaching to make sure I end classes on time. This one does the job perfectly and my 2 year old daughter thinks it looks wonderful!
First of all the colour is amazing, a subtle yellow that blends in with my skin tone beautifully.
The plastic flexes well when I twist my arm, walk fast and then there’s the amazing features of the watch itself.
Although the light is rather dull and hardly lights up the display it’s nothing compared to the amazing features of displaying the time, date, month, subtly beeps to signal each hour, has an ease of use when setting the alarm and the best bit is the stop watch feature!
I have a little girl who loves to race and time everything so this watch brings me back to my childhood and the fun times I had with racing friends on go karts!
It’s retro in style, a good price and my little girl now wants one!
A strong and stable watch which I will love forever.
To me and suppose many others, this is all part of the charm of the Casio. That after all these years, something as simple as a backlight hasn’t even been redesigned, let alone any other part of the timepieces design (including its sweet ‘Beep’ sound!) But of course, this Casio is part of a simple new range that replaces the metal bracelet (link) wrist strap with a one-piece plastic design – very smooth and definitely comfortable (certainly more so than any bracelet strap I’ve worn before!) In terms of fit, I have no problems with the length of the straps and I think if any complaints are to be made about it, its just that the reason it can appear short when putting the watch on is simply because the strap isn’t as supple as, say, cheap leather.
Apart from the former example, I’ve had nothing but compliments and definitely considering another purchase. As I’ve yet to test out its 30m Water Resistance, I won’t comment on the matter but should I get the Casio in another colour, I’d probably be more tempted to test it.
Features in full:
– Clock (12hr and 24hr)
– Calendar (Day, Month and Date)
– Stopwatch, with Split Lap timing
– Alarm
I’ve had this watch for just over 2 months now and I’m fairly pleased with it. The time is easy to set and read. The date feature and also the stopwatch are also useful. I haven’t used the alarm feature yet, but I’m confident it would be easy to do and would work well. The light does not light up the whole screen (pretty much just the left hand side) but I’ve found this is enough to make the watch readable in the dark. The yellow colour shown in the picture is a fairly accurate representation, and I think it’s a nice twist on the classic black F-91. The only (small) problem I have with this watch is that the strap has started to discolour slightly (only at the edges)where it has picked up colour from my clothing. The yellow colour on the watch face remains unchanged. It’s not particularly noticeable but I have been unable to get rid of the discolouration with Fairy Liquid or Swarfega. You could always go for the black version if this is a problem, as I imagine that the same discolouration occurs on the other new colour versions. I guess it’s the price you pay for having a yellow watch! I’d still recommend it, and for the money you can’t really complain.
LOOKS:
– Best part of the watch really.. classic retro Casio looks. Colour co-ordination is perfect; agree it looks a little more matt coloured in real life (less bright) than the photos, but it still looks damn good.
FUNCTIONALITY:
– Pretty much as is really.. very basic but that is all I need. Tells the time, date, has an alarm and stop-clock. And of course being a Casio, it will be as reliable as anything and will wont go wrong any time soon. Amazing good for the price of the watch really.
– A couple of things do need to be mentioned though; the light is utterly rubbish; the sort that only lights up the left-hand side of the watch!! I cant see this being a major issue though as it does light up enough to see when in pitch darkness. It reminds me of the old Casio I had years ago so in a strange way, it is part of the character of the watch! The second thing is that the strap is rather flimsy and not sure how long it will last. On the plus, it looks very water-proof.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this watch. My brother bought the white/grey version and looks equally as awesome, I would probably choose that one as 2nd best looking over the yellow one. Cant get a better watch at this price in my opinion.
