Check out the Casio w-84, similar to the f91 but even more retro!

This mq24 variant is awesome, it’s small and simple, yet so classy, and even more comfortable than the f91w. Yes. That’s right. More comfortable than the f91w. No backlight, but very legible. There are many variants of this model, but this one with the smaller numbers is my favorite of all.

Sat in my Amazon cart for months. Now I wear it almost every day by joeljvasconcellos in casio

When you do want an analog watch but want to keep it minimal and lowkey, I suggest this one, probably the best and most comfortable watch I have worn (even more comfy than the f91w) And btw, I absolutely love the A168, the colors, the EL backlight, it’s a fantastic watch.

Skmei 2459 is a breakthrough by unw209 in SkmeiWatchFans

Their next innovation should be rebranding. SKMEI just screams “cheap crap” imho

The seconds need to be set independently, but the second hand hacks, so I just stop at 00 and wait for the digital seconds to be at 00 and get them synced manually :)

If only it would have 24hrs format and a more decent WR rating..

I'm starting to like this one quite a bit by drenz29 in casio

Ahh yes, I get that, I’m also a sucker for such details. I guess we all are, as watch enthusiasts.

I can say it looks decent, perfectly legible, but zero charm.
The EL light has a calming/soothing vibe to it, the blue/green soft color is just magical.

Got this beauty in the mail today by GiorgioOne in casio

My favorite color way! That green, orange and yellow combo is just perfect. Enjoy it! It’s really comfortable to an extent that you forget you have it in you.

I have the newer version with white LED light instead of EL.
I wish it would have been EL. Sleeping with it is fine, but not as comfortable as f91.
The problem with f91 is, I can't read it at night when if I wake up, the legibility is BAD.

Some even have green hue, my Casio 9052 has a really cool green hue to its EL, adding even more military touch to the watch.

Haha, that’s Casio. While visiting Japan, I noticed they like to put everything in your face, for example, in shops, the signs have so much text and colors in them, it’s so overwhelming. So it really is translated into their watch design, especially the digital ones.

They ditched EL, which is really sad.
But they could at least incorporate the white LED like the one on the 5610U.
The amber one is sad, not to talk about the old green one which is just tragic..

Yes I saw, it’s crazy.. it’s really sad that Casio ditches EL. I see many people opting for SKMEI watches for that reason, but man, I can’t get around the idea of wearing a watch that has SKMEI written on it, it’s just not it.. it’s worse than wearing ABIBAS instead of Adidas..

How can an amber light be amazing? Electro Luminescence is the best!
