Simple, stylish, and elegantJul 27, 2008
By N. V. Kupatavetin
"NVK"
First Impression: This watch was absolutely gorgeous. Beautiful blue background and glow in the dark facing on the numbers and hands. Simple and stylish, the design and the position of the digital screen made this watch a winner. The band material is excellent.
Usage & Functions: Clock stayed accurate (with government clocks) to a point that was scary for a watch of this price. Over 6 months, it fell behind the NIST.gov site's time by only 5 seconds or so. Amazing. Now I know there are clocks/watches out there that can keep within 10 seconds of accuracy over a period of 10 years, but you really can't compare those with this, can you? The price range and class is entirely different. It's like comparing a cheap pair of sneakers with a sports car and saying the sports car lets you travel faster. The only disappointment about the functionality of the watch was that the digital screen could only show one thing at a time. I'm not complaining, but it would've been kinda nice if you could select a setting that made it bounce back and forth between showing the date and the digital time. But that's just me being fussy.
Ease of Use: Here is another thing that kept the watch from getting 5 stars. It's a bit of a hassle to use the first couple of times, particularly setting it. You have to set the digital clock, AND set the analog clock SEPARATELY. And setting the analog is kind of annoying. You have to press a button that most people CAN NOT press without a pin, and each quick push of the button advances the analog clock by 20 seconds, and holding it advances it by 20 seconds continuously. Kind of annoying, especially if you have to move the analog clock 12 hours. But not too bad. It's also a bit awkward moving around the functions the first few times around, but once you've done it once or twice, you learn it, and it actually is fairy simple. It's just that you only have 2 buttons to do so many things. The manual that is included will solve 99% of your problems.
Overall: The watch is brilliantly designed, with a few knicks. It provides all the functions most people would ever need in their lifetimes, and the battery is supposed to last a few years, and is replaceable. It's fairly sturdy, and it IS waterproof. I have actually taken this watch diving, but I only went about 10 feet underwater. I don't know if the 50 meter (~140-150 feet) rating will hold true or not. I like this watch a LOT, as it is not a big bulky watch, which is what the market today is primarily composed of. It is a simple, smart, stylish, and well designed timepiece that can be used by anyone from a trendy-teenager to a well-organized business-oriented adult attending a formal party. When this watch breaks for me (or the strap does, which I find happens to most of my watches after about 5 years or so), I'm probably getting another one of the same kind. There's no reason to move to something else.

Casio Dual Time WatchOct 10, 2007
By T. J. Garrett
"Tom"
Thin, lightweight, I would give 5 stars if it had an analog second hand. It will display seconds in the digital window, just have to switch modes, which I have to remove the watch, play around with it as I can never remember how. But I really do like the watch and the price and service and shipping was great.
I would recommend

 Great looking watch. Dead battery.Aug 25, 2010
By BarryN
Purchased this watch in July 2010 directly from Amazon as a gift for my son. When it arrived, the battery was DOA. Got a new battery, seems to work just fine. He chose the watch for the dual function - digital and analog, and the blue face. I hope it holds up, and is truly water resistant.
Update: Please be aware that this watch does not illuminate (the hands glow in the dark a bit, but if you want to see what time it is after it's been dark awhile, your out of luck.)

Its a good watch as a long as you realize what you'll getDec 22, 2009
By Mr.Chunky Monkey
This is not a bad watch at all, like any Casio watch. It has some pros and cons some of which are stated some arent in the description.
pros:
-The band is made from very comfortable resin material that you can easily clean if your hand was sweaty
-many holes in the band to fit any wrist size. I have thin wrists and this fits me well.
-4 selectable beeps for "top of the hour" beep, plus alarm clock
-the digital screen is positioned well without blocking too much of analog area
-settings are very easy to change using 2 buttons, you could lose the manual and figure out how it works easy
cons:
-no ticking hand to show seconds movement
-the color is a MUCH darker blue than in the picture, its almost black blue
-no illumination for night time
-the surface is plastic that will scratch if you accidentally put it in a pocket with keys or something sharp

Nice Basic Sports WatchOct 02, 2009
By G. K. Vaughan
"GK de SoCal"
I've had this watch for about a year now. It's my third Ana-Digi watch I've owned. Two Casio's and one Timex. I travel a fair amount, so having dual time zones is a nice feature. This is a good everyday type watch. As another reviewer stated, it is missing a second hand which I like. But my biggest complaint is the mineral face scratches quite easily. The midnight blue dial is a nice touch though. For the cheap price, you really can't go wrong. I might get another one for a rainy day.
