A168W1Strengths: build quality, electro-luminescent backlight, metal band Weakness: plastic case this watch is a good value for its price. But given that it is not shock-resistant or water-proof, its thick squarish plastic case looks a little bit ugly. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? TopAdvertisement

Only the essentials!!!
Strengths: Solid construction, readable, reliable, stylish. Easy to operate.
Weakness: No way to turn off 'button beep' (which is loud), timer only goes to 59minutes and 59 seconds. Cheap box. Poor instructions.
Finally, a watch I can count on! As a self proclaimed 'fashionista' and degree-distinguished world class mathematician, I find it imperative that I am punctual in all my endeavors. The Casio a168w is the perfect, affordable way to achieve such a goal.
There is certainly no outfit which doesn't suit my Casio, and vise versa. The unit is slim enough to be neatly tucked underneath a nice button up, but yet thick enough to not look like a bandage wrapped around my wrist during a tennis game.
The water-resistant nature of the Casio is also very appealing, as it can withstand the torrential rainy season here in Los Angeles, CA - a feat many of my much more expensive timepieces cannot accomplish.
Unfortunately, however, do expect to pay another 5 dollars to get the device fitted for your wrist. Personally, I wear mine loose but such isn't the case for my colleagues.
Don't be fooled by the low price and the 'casio' brand, this watch is grade-a quality. Regardless of social strata, income level, or skin color, this is a must for ALL meanly men.
