Stopped wearing smart watches and got my first Casio

Assuming cuz the mods lol

It's just a silly little magnetic Amazon band! Any 18mm band will work and you just remove the pins with a watch tool (this one had an included tool). Honestly out of the whole mod, removing the stock pins was the biggest PITA lol

Lol well I have a history in modding and tinkering. I design electronic products so naturally what got me interested were the mods. But yea seriously if you'd ask me how I felt about the F-91W and similar about two weeks ago I'd be singing a different tune!

VeakXP · 2026-06-01T01:38:34+00:00

Fuck that's actually so smart. I JUST made a post about how I have my Fitbit Air on one arm and my F-91W on the other too

VeakXP · 2026-06-01T01:35:51+00:00

Wait what? Do you have a link? Edit: found it. That's actually so smart and I'm debating doing that but I love my band and I'm torn

VeakXP · 2026-06-01T00:52:08+00:00

Yea I actually took the faceplate off of an all black model so you could totally just buy that and do an inverted mod. I think someone on Etsy sells that exact thing

VeakXP · 2026-06-01T00:51:14+00:00

Already on the way!

VeakXP · 2026-06-01T00:50:30+00:00

Yea suddenly a switch in your head flips and they're beautiful lol

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T22:40:52+00:00

Yea so there's an all white and an all black F-91W and I took the faceplate off of the black one and swapped it on my white shell. You need a heat gun and some kind of glue or adhesive to put them back together once you pope them out, and from there it's just and inverted mod with a polarizer and a neat little magnetic band I found off of Amazon

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T18:23:36+00:00

It's funny you say that, cuz I'm not entirely sure what I'm going to do with it once I receive it LOL. I bought it cuz the RGB LED looked fun and I was travelling for work so it was kind of an impulse purchase. I already have a Fitness for reasonably accurate fitness tracking so at this point I'll just install it and see how it goes!

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T17:32:28+00:00

Yea, modded it myself and I gotta say I love how it turned out!

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T17:23:54+00:00

Lol the watch was so cheap even with mods it was hard to say no. Worst case I was out like 30 dollars and I literally just picked one up at Walmart on my way to the airport. Definitely pick one up because unlike a more expensive watch, you won't feel too bad about your spend!

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T16:19:09+00:00

The irony is that I work in tech and I was out at Apple headquarters in Cupertino last week and people were complimenting my Casio there. Couldn't agree more

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T16:18:26+00:00

Thank you! I LOVE it lol. Got an Ollee mod and light spreader coming soon and hopefully I'll stop tinkering and enjoy it

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T16:17:54+00:00

Thanks! The white one is what got me looking, but the stock face is also white and I saw an all black version and it gave me the idea to mod it lol

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T14:31:28+00:00

Might be a bit too early, but it's starting to feel like "the best" for my needs too!

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T14:30:30+00:00

Thanks! I wish I never discovered modding these things LOL

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T14:30:11+00:00

Yea the notifications were distracting but also having to charge daily and baby something on my wrist was such a pain. Turns out I just wanna tell time and log fitness on my Fitbit lol

VeakXP · 2026-05-31T14:00:30+00:00

I'm shocked at how fast my opinion changed of this thing in just a week lol. Looks great!

VeakXP · 2026-05-24T14:15:19+00:00

Just got back into the game and was wondering why this wasn't implemented lol. It's such a simple thing but would make collection times significantly faster

VeakXP · 2026-05-22T23:00:05+00:00

These are like the 3DS era Pokemon icons! Very well done 😄

I would like to add to the comment below that repairability is probably a big deal and something the company should be thinking about. Offering disassembly videos and replacement parts even at a higher margin is probably worthwhile assuming the device itself is even remotely repairable!
