Men's AE2000WD-1AV Silver-Tone Multi-Functional Digital Sport Watch

I own both this watch and the Casio AE2000W-1AV and both of them are excellent. This watch looks really nice and surprisingly has some weight to it - but not too much. Like the AE2000W-1AV, which is lighter weight but just as high quality, both fit well on my wrist. And speaking of wrist size, these watches are not oversized and fit nicely. The 3 graphic areas above the time are, in my opinion, a little gimmicky but serve useful purposes - if only they were a little easier to read. The first graphic to the left is a 10 second indicator - for every 10 seconds elapsed, a horizontal bar fills the area and does so until 60 seconds have elapsed, and then it starts over again from the bottom. (I guess kind of like a game of Tetris, but in reverse.) The middle graphic is a traditional looking analog clock face that shows you the current home time zone. Suppose this is handy if you're looking through various time zones and features on the watch and want a quick, at a glance reminder of the home city time. Finally, the last indicator on the right shows watch settings that are current active/inactive (i.e. hourly chime, alarm, and mute). The face is large and easy to read with clear font next to each function button also being easy to see. But you will have to read the manual to set it up. And as for set up, it's really not that complicated - but then again, I'm one of the few who enjoys reading the instructions. Incidentally, some reviewers may complain that the watch light doesn't stay on long enough. By default it's set to last 1.5 seconds but during setup you can change that to 3 seconds - and that's what I've done. The lighting is sufficient but could be better - would rather it light the whole face of the watch but for what you really need to see in the dark (time, day, date), that's good enough for me. Overall I find these both to be really nice time pieces. I've looked through so many watches and each time I kept coming back to these two. They're well made, nice looking, and seem that they could take a bit of a beating - not that I'd want to. I think the AE2000W-1AV (made of resin) is good for weekend wear while the AE2000WD-1AV in silver is better looking for work or casual going out events. Finally, a 10 year battery is a nice feature but from what I can see, doesn't look like it'd be all that difficult to replace it on my own.

Currently I'm working retail with an odd schedule, which means it would be impossible for me to keep track of all my scheduling needs. I also have a very bad habit of losing track of time. The five alarm feature on this watch is excellent for that, as well as the timer which I use to time my breaks. Everything can be clearly read on the watch face which is a problem for me as I need to wear corrective lenses. The light seems a little dim in daylight, but it works well enough at night. My only complaint about it is the light is on a timer so even if you hold the button it won't stay on and goes out after a second you have to press it again. Although, that isn't a serious concern. The metal band is excellent and very sturdy it clasps easily. There are a few issues with it though. First changing the size of the band is a pain, it takes a significant amount of effort to remove the link pins without bending the rest of the band. I had luck with a thumbtack and some padded pliers. Second, if you have a lot of arm hair on your wrist you won't after wearing this watch for about a week. That's the price you pay for a metal band. Something that might be a bother also is that this watch is large and fairly heavy. It is not a problem for me as I know that's the price you pay for a sturdy watch. It matches the description and the pictures on the product page in size, so if that is too big for you I would recommend steering clear. Speaking of sturdiness the water resistance seems to work well. I haven't gone diving with it or anything, but I work with fish tanks, and this watch gets wet all the time, but it doesn't leak or anything like that. I could see the world time feature being useful for someone who travels a lot.Overall for the price this watch is a really great purchase. I would say spend more if you have it and buy a better model, but if you don't want to empty your wallet this is a great timekeeper for the sportsman, everyday worker, and the frequent traveler.

I've owned this watch for about 2 months and wear it daily. Overall it's useful, but larger than I expected given the size of my previous Casio watch. It's hard to get used to the size and weight. The finish on the band seems to be much easier to damage than my older stainless steel band. Pros: 1) Easy to read time and date especially when I'm running. 2) Multiple timezones can be very useful when traveling. 3) Timer, stopwatch, and alarm features are helpful. 4) The face seems to be reasonably well protected because it's recessed and has not been scratched yet. Cons: 1) The band is for people with very large wrists, so I had to remove 3 links. Removing the links is incredibly difficult even if you know how to do it. I used an iron nail and leather gloves with lots of force and did not scratch the finish on the band. I didn't have anything else available that could take the necessary force without bending, breaking, or damaging the band. I assume there is a special tool for this. 2) Band is attached via plastic to the watch body, which I suspect will be the first thing to break. The plastic flexes easily and the band cannot rotate on the pins, so it's designed to fail. 3) Band links are rigid rather than flexible like my previous band, so I have to lay the watch on its side. Inconvenient but tolerable unless you would like to carry it in your pocket for some reason. 3) The watch is about twice the size and mass of my previous waterproof Casio watch, possibly due to the G-shock feature. 4) The alarm sound is barely loud enough to wake me up, and usually doesn't unless I'm nearly awake already. 5) The top part of the display has three nearly invisible functions that might be usable if they had better contrast. It's possible to figure out what these are for if you look closely in good light (or read the manual), and then you thankfully realize you don't need those features.

I like it , nice watch for smart dress & causal use : Pro: 1. economical, 2. 200m waterproof, 3. mineral glass with clear display, 4. comfort wearing 5. rigid and good protection by stainless bezel 6. 10 years battery life 7. 4 world city time, alarms, stopwatch feature Con: 1. quite big for my 6.5in wrist size (refer photo), 2. quite heavy, I bought this watch for CAD$47 which is much under value ! Recommend to buy !

Super montre très très robuste.

Oggetto rispondente alle aspettative. L'unico appunto è che non è "Illuminator", ma ha una semplice lampadina led che provvede ad illuminare lo schermo. Per il resto, bell'orologio. Servizio Amazon impeccabile.

Really happy with this watch! I have a small collection of budget Casios (and a couple of other "mid range" including G shock). I like watches that you're not scared to wear due to the price tag but are well built and look good. For me, this one ticks the boxes. Mineral glass, stainless and resin case, good bracelet and 200m water resistant mean it's tough enough for just about anything. All the functions you'd expect plus world time, 5 alarms and countdown timer gives you everything you need. The orange highlights against the stainless steel and black resin case look great. The black pushers are easy to use and although they're robust they aren't intrusive. It's reassuringly heavy but really comfortable on the wrist. The case size may put some off but it sits well on my 7 inch wrist. If there was anything to nit pick at (and I'm trying to find fault here), the LED backlight illuminates the screen fine, but is noticeably bright in the bottom left and not as evenly spread as you might expect (a product of Casio's much lamented move from electro luminescence to LED). This is the only issue I can find with it and I'm reaching a bit. Paid around £35 for it and I honestly think it's pound for pound the best value digital watch I've bought (including my G shock). It's that good that I've now ordered the black/blue version as well!! (And that one is currently under £32 on Amazon. Absolute bargain!!!!) Great watch, thoroughly recommend!

El color es más plateado de lo que se ve en la foto por lo que de hecho se ve mejor en persona. Lo recomiendo muchísimo.
