Just looking for a watch- this is it. No need for a chrono/timer/alarm/barometer/altimeter/esppresso maker on a wrist? you've found your watch. The battery is easy to replace at any watch shop, but you might be better off just buying a new watch for the same price as the battery replacement! I love this watch for 2 reasons- the frugality and the "old-school-retro" thing. If that's not your thing, oh well...

I bought this only because it fulfilled the additional 5 bucks required for me by Amazon to get free shipping on the better Casio watch I ordered ... My intent was to just give it away but I've found it's great to wear when I'm doing any activity that may beat up a better watch (fishing, yard work, etc.) ... This cheap timepiece can quick light at night with the touch of a button and has about a three year battery life.

and you might need to have a physical address rather than a POB, and be in the USA as well.

But still for a great watch which tells the time at any time, how can you beat it?

YOu may find that wearing it in humid or working situations leads to some discomfort with the "resin" watchband (whatever resin is = plastic?) but bands can easily be replaced anyway with cloth weavings. I find the watch normally outlasts the band in any case, and am glad to replace it.

So for the time of day at a low price, how can you beat it?

basic, no frills timepiece visible to the naked eye

I personally like the lower model of this watch. I can't see spending $3 more to have the date feature, but it certainly has its use. There are NO frills on this watch, it's just a watch. And really, when you look at comparable functionality... for example, the rolex with date function (for oh, about $10K more), $3 for a calendar isn't so bad... If all you need is a watch, don't spend your bux anywhere else. You're just showing off...

no excuse now for not getting a fine watch that tells you what you need to know - the time!

the band is functional, although it can get sweaty and grungy underneath the plastic. But bands are easily replaced with cool fabric weavings, as long as you can handle those weird little band bars.

As long as you have a physical address and not just a POB, you can get this great watch at a rock bottom price. What more can you ask for when you ask for the time?

I've had this watch since 2003 or 2004 and it's still working!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It hasn't stopped or broke, I cut the straps off and use it as a pocket watch and I carry it with me everyday. It's a great watch. :)
