Love and hate relationship...
4 Stars
Love and hate relationship...
What I love:1. LOVE the current-time/main digits in each mode and on the home screen. Big BOLD digits and satisfying to read.2. This isn't mention a lot (or maybe not even at all) but having the ability to adjust countdown timer minutes backwards as oppose to just forwards is a HUGE benefit. I use the countdown timer the most out of my Casio watches. Being able to quickly adjust time up AND down is great.3. The orange backlight is bright and contrasts really well with the bold main digits. AND the ability to change backlight duration to 3 seconds. NICE.What I dislike:1. Contrary to the BOLD main digits in each mode, the day and date digits are annoyingly small and personally hard to read.2. I personally think the world map is useless as you can barely see what zone you are in.3. The top left "analog" display is also useless IMO. I understand this is a classic design and I may offend people here, but I think they could have ditched that top left display and utilized it for day and time on the home screen then switch to numerical digit current time when in different modes.4. Not the best for working out in terms of how it feels on the wrist and even functionality. Another personal preference, but something smaller like the W800H is more comfortable and functional with the World Time mode being out of the way when switching quickly between modes.Overall, may not be the best watch for working out. Consider other models. Better suited for aesthetics on a casual night out and someone who travels frequently between time-zones. Even then, when used for what it is intended, I still give it overall 4stars for the day and date not being easy to read which I think would be extremely useful for frequent travelers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Watch with TONS of Functions, Especially for the Price. Love Casio!
Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2023
The Casio World Time Watch is a fantastic buy for the money. Even at the full $43 purchase price on Amazon, you get a lot of Watch for the money. If you travel and want a Watch that can take a beating but also offer tons of functionality, the Casio World Time Watch is what you need. I found the Watch on sale for $23.99 and didn’t hesitate to purchase it. What a FANTASTIC buy! Casio makes quality budget Watches, and I own several that sit next to my higher-end branded Watches.

The World Time offers a nice aesthetic design, an alarm function, 31 time zones with a daylight savings time toggle, a stopwatch AND timer function, and you can even set up an hourly chime. The light function ensures you have illumination in the darkest places, and with a 10-year battery life, this Watch is a no-brainer for any serious Watch collector’s wrist.

With all the cool things you get, the part that is a little disappointing is that the case is a resin painted to look like metal, and the glass is just glass and not a harder substance. When the Chinese make mechanical Watches with steel cases and sapphire glass for $50, you may wonder if the Casio is worth the purchase price. It is definitely worth the purchase price. I’ve found the resign cases are resilient to bumps and bruises, and I’ve never broken the glass on one of my Casios. I also know my Casio will outlive any cheap Chinese-made knock-off Watch.

Who should buy the Casio World Time? Anyone who loves sleek digital Watches and needs a lot of functionality. It’s a great looking Watch on your wrist and has every function imaginable if you travel. It’s a straightforward Watch from a brand known for its quality budget Watches. If you want something super durable, you’ll need to upgrade to a G-Shock, but for most uses, the World Time Casio will be perfect for you.

Pros: Great price, great value, sleek look, and tons of functionality. This Watch offers more functions than you’ll probably ever use. The 10-year battery life is stellar.
Cons: The bracelet links are hard to change, and you will need a super small screwdriver and patience. I was able to remove some links but ended up taking it to a jeweler to size.

5.0 out of 5 stars The digital watch that every man should own, but beware of misinformation!
Reviewed in Canada on March 13, 2024
An affordable, feature-rich piece with a stylish retro design; this is the ultimate digital watch to add to your collection.

There are a couple negative things worth mentioning, though. In regards to the watch itself, the backlight lacks a delay feature for when you're changing alarms or setting up a timer. Also, unlike the five alarms that can be set, you can only have one timer set up.

The biggest issue is the fact that unlike what is stated in the watch information section, the case is most definitely not stainless steel-- it's resin; only the caseback and wristband are stainless steel. I purchased mine for a discounted price and adore it, so I don't feel particularly bad about the mix up... but new buyers should be aware of this. On that note, make sure you're careful with the wristband. I've only had the watch for a few days and can already see marks near the lugs.
