Purchased this timepiece for an uncle after he complained he couldn't read his Casio steelband easily anymore. The following review is my experience with a carbon copy version I bought previously.As you can see in the photos, we now own three versions of the same model. I got my W-93H about six years ago (2014?) at Walmart for about 12$ when I was working with a delivery service. My grandmother got hers about a month after I picked up mine. The band on mine first broke on bottom, then broke on the buckle side. At that point (late 2020) I purchased a nylon NATO band set. Even tho the band gave up on me, the time piece itself never did. My grandmother's is in very good condition, and has only gained one minute in the five years she has had it.Understand: my W-93H has survived delivery company, showers, rain, lawn service, and the band (18mm polyurethane) gave up after 5 years? That screams quality to me. Imagine if I had a NATO band on it to begin with.The timepiece is undoubtedly quality. Day, date, and time; front and center. The "auto light" does work. Turn it on by holding the SPLIT button (top right), the auto light functions for 3 hrs and then turns the function off. This is a good thing because it saves battery, this is not a solar watch. Not to worry, so far the battery has not needed changing.I absolutely hate how manufacturer/destributer completely fail to describe or photograph their products. So I have included the best photos I can. In an effort to show off visibility and the lighting function, I also shown off the indicator at the bottom of the screen. It puts a bar over the function it displays. Included dime for size reference.The stopwatch function also has a target alarm. The target alarm is usually used for athletes to beat their previous time. To set it, hold ADJUST and set what time you want. I used the function for when I bake. Something needed to be in the oven for 15mins? Set the Stopwatch for 15mins, then start the stopwatch. It will beep at 15mins, and keep counting, so I can know how long something has been in the oven. Your application may vary.The TIMER function has an auto-rollover. You can turn this on/off. When off, the timer will beep and stop when it hits 0. When on, the timer will rollover and countdown again (the same time you set). I have not made much use of this function. Your application may vary.The watch also has hourly chime and ONE daily alarm.It has a dual time function, I always set my dual time to UTC. The dual time is not affected by any other function.The timepiece does NOT have a daylight savings function. You have to manually adjust the hour.Final note: if my uncle decided he doesn't want the watch, I will very eagerly keep it. That way I would have a backup due to them being difficult to find.

This watch is a pretty old model now, but it's everything I love about Casio watches in one unit. It's small with a '90s look, the display is clearly readable. it shows time (with seconds), date, and day of week in a nice minimalist layout (it doesn't have the cluttered face that most digital watches seem to these days).It has a lot of features that are minor but show attention to usability: The Adjust button must be held for three seconds to change the time, which prevents accidental button presses. It beeps when you cycle through modes, and beeps with a higher tone when you go all the way around back to time. The dual time zone feature is great for people that deal with web servers and applications a lot - I have the second time zone set to UTC for easy reference. It has an hourly chime and alarm option. The timer has convenient features like countdown tones (the watch beeps at 20 minutes left, 15 minutes left, 10 minutes left, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1) and automatic repeat. Finally, the automatic light feature seemed like a gimmick to me at first, but it's actually very useful.This is absolutely my favorite digital watch. it's cheap and it's wonderful.

The only digital watch nowadays that's water resistant, has time (with seconds), date and day on the "frontpage", has a stop watch and a timer, and that isn't huge. Also really durable (it scratches easily, but it'll never die). The classic series miss functions and the G-shocks are too expensive and WAY too big for my modest wrist. Other brands don't have anything near this. Highly recommended!

So I've bought several of this exact same watch over the years. I keep buying this watch when my watch needs replacing, because it has all the functionality I need, it's easy to read, it has a great light, it's comfortable to wear all day, and it's reasonably priced, all of which describes a decent number of Casio watches, but also one additional weirdly specific UI improvement that for some reason has never made it to any other Casio watch, despite being really convenient for presumably very little work on their end: the ability to go backwards as well as forwards, when setting the timer, alarm, or for that matter, the current time. I really don't understand why all digital watches can't do that.On the other hand, I also *keep buying them*, mainly because they aren't exceptionally waterproof. If you're just showering with it, that's fine, and I suppose it does specifically say not suitable for snorkeling... but it's also supposedly supposed to be water resistant up to 50 meters? Clearly that's kind of a lie. Anyway, I went snorkeling with it last month, after that the screen slowly started disappearing. A week later it was completely blank. Well, they're cheap enough, anyway, I just bought another identical one at that point.

Have had about 5 of these over the past 20+ years. The watch itself has never quit working, it's the band that breaks about every 2 years. The band loop is the first to break. I have a bag of small black rubber bands and hair ties that work perfectly it's place. After I've scratched the face so bad I can't read it anymore, I just buy another one. A few years back these were less than $15. Now, still a great deal at $21. This is a great everyday watch that can take the abuse. A lot of features that I'm still discovering every time I buy a new one! Spend the 21 bucks, you won't be disappointed!

Backlight only stays on for 2 seconds, regardless of how long the button is pressed. Further, the auto-on backlight feature is not only finicky, but turns off after 3 hours (sometimes sooner!). Relying on any feature which automatically turns off backlight features over any duration proves impossible: I'm suddenly turning my wrist multiple times to try to auto-activate, only to realize the feature has actually been turned off. Inverted backlight (lit LCD, black back) was final nail due to reduced readability.
