Casio Collection Men's Watch W-735H

I was looking for a everyday watch and this was a perfect buy for exactly that. It provides you with many benefits due to the little added extras.. Having a light so you are able to see it in the dark Being waterproof so when you forget to take it off in the shower no damage is caused Having many different settings such as stopwatch, vibration alarm, timer and so on Battery life of 10 years but easily changed and watch batteries come cheap Its heavy duty, not easily marked/scuffed It includes the day/date/year which is always helpful It gives you the option of having it as a 24 hour or 12 hour clock which is handy for anyone who may not be familiar to 24 hour digital clock I feel that this watch is wearable with most outfits and doesn't look out of place unless dressing up smart for an event It is also very easy to navigate, but instructions are provided if help is needed To conclude this is honestly one of the best watches I have had and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a reliable watch. Casio Men's Watch W-735H-1AVEF

Comfortable, functional, easy to read. All of the main features (the countdown timer, stopwatch, alarm, and alternate time) are really quick & straightforward to navigate through, set, and use. The backlight is really bright and quick to turn on with the huge button on the front (however it doesn't stay on for very long when you activate it). Obviously the unique feature of the watch is the vibrating alarm function. The vibration here is very noticeable without being too loud, and so is very useful for if you need silent alarms in a quiet office or library, if you're in a very loud or hectic environment that would drown out a normal chime, if you're listening to music, or if you're deaf. Much more reliable that a phone on silent which can easily be missed if placed somewhere where it won't be felt. I use the countdown timer for the Pomodoro technique a lot - and when I'm doing that I'm either listening to music, in a library, or both - so the countdown with the vibe alarm is a really really useful feature for me. You'd honestly wonder why a vibration function isn't much more common on digital watches after using this. It is important to note however that this is not reliable as a wake-up call alarm unless you're certain that you're a light sleeper. While the vibration is definitely strong enough and the chime definitely loud enough for daily use, neither are so powerful as to wake the dead; unfortunately, I'm quite a heavy sleeper and so the alarms are useless for that purpose for me. However this isn't really a negative point for me, as no watch I've ever used has been able to wake me. It's also worth noting that you can't use vibration and sound at the same time. You set the watch to either use sound alarms or vibration alarms; you can't have, say, a sound alarm for your daily alarm and a vibration for the countdown, and nor can you have both vibration and sound on at the same time. It is, however, very easy to switch between the two, simply by holding down the start button in the main clock mode. Another neat little feature worth noting is that you can set it to chime or vibrate very briefly at the top of the hour. Surprisingly useful if you're the type of person to lose track of time, "zone out", or just forget to look at your watch. Again, like everything here, this feature is very easily toggled on and off. While I didn't buy it for its looks and wasn't expecting a fashion item, I did find that I got used to the slightly chunky look and feel much quicker than I expected. There's certainly more discrete or elegant Casio watches than this, but not ones this durable, with this feature-set, at this price-range. All in all, I'm really pleased with this. It has a jam-packed feature set with no unnecessary gimmicks, it's remarkably easy to use, and it's comfortable enough to wear all day including sleeping and showering. The price is really, really good for all of this. There are probably some much more expensive G-Shock Casios that might surpass this in terms of features, but given just how well this one does what it does at less than a third of the price, this is really worth giving a try.

Only just got this watch but even so for the price it is fantastic so far I had previously had two of the entry level casio's which are not quite robust enough for me needs (but only £12 at the time). This watch is the perfect stop gap between the entry level and the g-shock as I cannot afford that at the moment. The best thing about the range of this style of watch is that it is robust enough for work but still looks good enough for most occasions. First things first, my take on the vibration alarm/function debate: - like most others I have to say if you are buying the watch purely for the silent alarm function to not disturb your partner don't, you would have to either be a really light sleeper or just be lucky that your body got in tune with it. That said for my needs the vibration function is brilliant. I bought this watch as i love the style and was an upgrade to the entry level, I would normally turn off the hour indication beep and for using the watch as a timer/countdown for exercise I couldn't wear headphones as you would hear the beep. With the vibration function turned on the hourly indication vibration is non-intrusive and after a couple of days once you are used to it and the novelty has worn off (so you are no longer looking at the watch every time it vibrates) it will be a nice indicator of the hour with disturbing you o those around. And the same goes for setting the alarm during the day as a reminder for something, it wont disturb those around you but you will feel it. Once last note on the vibration, I don't where my watch overnight it is too chunky and on the bedside table I did not notice the hourly vibration at all. Watch Function: Not much to say but the usual easy to use and useful Casio functions My main reason for buying Casio is for work, I need a robust watch with a digital display, that said currently it is my only watch and I love them all the time. Unlike some of the Casio's the light is a nice clear white, the display is easy to read in direct natural light and everything is visible on the display at night when using the light function. The two timers and the alarm both work as with all Casio's and as to the menu's that is the same as all Casio's as well - once you are used to it, it is quick and easy using a Casio and this watch is no different. The best thing about this model is the countdown feature - if using a timer for exercise with the countdown feature you set the time and it counts down in to it, so no flapping about at the start of a routine trying to set off the timer and start your exercise at the same time. It works very well. Waterproofing: Haven't tested it yet but I don't wear a watch when swimming anyway and I am not a diver - the entry level Casio of this style (see link below) never had any issues being worn in the shower so I do not expect any issues here. Overall I would rate this watch as very good, good overall functions, size and weight and comfort. Four Stars until durability has been tested. If you are looking for a step up from this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Casio-W-214HC-1AVEF-Quartz-Digital-Display/dp/B007EBU9VI/ref=sr_1_47?s=watch&ie=UTF8&qid=1472906050&sr=1-47&keywords=casio But cannot find a G-Shock you both like and and can afford and waterproofing does not need to be bullet-proof then go for it!

I have always loved CASIO's and have had their watches for 25+ years, predominately G-Shocks, they've always served me well in some of the most hostile parts of the world. A bit older and somewhat more sedentary I wasn't look for quite the same level of robustness, but desperately wanted a decent and sturdy gym/ training watch. Here it is. Clear screen, simple functionality and I love the vibrating alarm! This little feature combined with the countdown timer is perfect for rest periods between sets, especially if you train with earphones/ music. The vibration is subtle enough that it's not shaking off your arm, but your very much aware of when your time is up without having to turn down the tunes or rest too long because you missed the beeps. The watch can be set-up to vibrate on the hour every hour too, which might sound pointless, but I have found it very useful when busy at work to make me aware of the time - I have also incorporated using the hourly alarm as a signal to stand-up and get away from my desk, which as silly as it might sound, is really helping remove little aches and niggles. Downside - only 1 - CASIO have continued to use the non-circular casing to the back of the watch, which means that when the battery goes (between 5-10 years) a standard jeweller can't reseal the watch when changing the battery - the watch needs to go back to CASIO - it takes 2-3 months and its not cheap. For this reason alone I have had to retire my previous CASIOs, considering the price I can't drop a star for that - I'll just see them again in another 5-10 years.

So far I have little to complain with this time-piece. It has a much more luminous back-light for when to see in the dark, the countdown function works perfectly and I can toggle between the beeper and the vibration function, although I find the ring is somewhat more effective. This was bought as a means to replace my previous watch in my ole Lorus, which I didn't want to retire as there was nothing wrong with it with regards to the time-piece itself, it's just that the strap had seen better days and the means to replace said strap would have been tiresome and tedious so it's just easier to cut my losses and opt for something that will give me less headaches and so far this Casio is worth it's weight in gold. If you're looking for something that is practical and old-school, then I highly recommend this. I say Old-school because there are no wi-fi functions with this and I prefer it that way. I think there are some things that are best kept simple.

Nearly splashed out for another g shock but was a bit strapped for cash and saw this. Looks just as good as a g shock and had all the features I needed so I thought I'd give it a go. Excellent watch for a fraction of the price. Maybe not quite as waterproof and durable but for £20 there is not a better watch anywhere in the world. I'm really clumsy and forgetful and break watches within a week which is why I bought a g shock. So far this has stood up to everything and does everything I need it to. Vibrating alarm, super backlight, easy to set up and operate and at this price I don't have to be as cautious as with a g shock I'm not gonna cry if I break or lose it.

Seriously, good watch! Aren’t that many vibration watches out there and this one is very good value as most Casio watches are! I have a quite a few in my collection. And none of them have let me down! I use mine on the countdown timer function at non league football matches to remind me when it’s coming up to halftime and full time! I can never hear the beeps at any time when I’m out! 10 year battery life with 100m water resistant and good backlight and is light and comfortable and fits me well on my 7 1/2 wrists, it’s like a G shock but not that wide like most G shocks! A great budget watch! ,

Easy to use, good display and value for money. However, there doesn't appear to be a daylight saving option, which in this day and age is surprising. If you don't mind that omittance then it's a great watch. If it were present I'd give it 5 stars for sure

An die Grenze von G-Shock würde man im Alltag - zumindest in meinem - selten stößen. Deshalb fiel mir die Entscheidung für diese Uhr. Sie sieht aus wie ein G-Shock ist aber keine. Hat aber genau so viel Funktionen wie ein G-Shock und kostet nur ein Drittel. NOCH BESSER!! Vibration-Alarm!! So toll! um geweckt zu werden aber dabei das Baby nicht zu wecken ; ) Dadurch dass die Tasten echte Tasten sind im Gegensatz zu Mudman oder andere G-Shocks, wo die Tasten noch mal mit Kunststoff überzogen sind, ist die Bedienung sehr angenehm. Die Helligkeit des Illuminators wurde von einem anderen Käufer negativ erwähnt, was ich überhaupt nicht nachvollziehen kann. Denn ich kann die Beleuchtung als Taschenlampe nutzen : ) Ich mach mir überhaupt keine Gedanken, ob die Uhr kaputt geht. Wenn es einmal vorkommen sollte, kaufe ich für 30 € eine Neue. Für mich ist die Uhr das perfektere Kandidat für Allrounder!

No vibration alarm!

サウナ用に購入しました。 アラーム音がバイヴに出来るので、重宝してます。

Ottimo lavoro. Ho nuotato nel mare. Funziona bene. La vibrazione è normale. Strap si adatta perfettamente alla mano. Vi consiglio il venditore.

Hittills väldigt bra. Bra vibration som inte är för stark.
