Casio Men's DW290-1V Classic Sport Watch, Black, DW-290-1V

Product Information

This is probably the closest I've found, and it's just an excellent watch from what I've been told, but is there something more adequate? Casio Computer Co., Ltd. [note 1] ( カシオ計算機株式会社, Kashio Keisanki Kabushiki-gaisha) is a Japanese multinational electronics manufacturing corporation headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan. Its products include calculators, mobile phones, digital cameras, electronic musical instruments, and analogue and digital watches. It was founded in 1946, and in 1957 introduced the first entirely compact electronic calculator. It was an early digital camera innovator, and during the 1980s and 1990s, the company developed numerous affordable home electronic keyboards for musicians along with introducing the first mass-produced digital watches.

Admittedly, the overall design here is not the best we’ve seen from Casio, but it is not entirely horrid to look at either. This style will appeal to some, and not so much to others.The countdown timer is a plus for so many things. Casio puts only a stopwatch function in its cheaper watches and that just won’t do when grilling, baking, making tea or needing an alert for any ‘must notice now’ event. Both should be standard features and the 291H has both countdown and stopwatch style timers. With all that being said, let’s get into it! The first thing we are going to look at though is the specifications. i fell in love with the ultimate design, ugly but absolutely irresistible, of the dw-290....the watch is on the road to my house, and i was thinking of trying it on nato :think:

As far as style goes, however, it leaves much to be desired. While not really necessarily an ugly watch there are similar looking watches from Casio that are easier on the eyes.In 1974, Casio released their first digital wristwatch, called the CASIOTRON. It was the first wristwatch in the world to include an automatic calendar function. [8] In 1977, they released a retro-futuristic wristwatch, called the F100. The watch was one of the first wristwatches in the world to be made primarily out of resin, making it very light compared to other companies' heavy metal-made watches and enabling future Casio watches to enter mass production more easily. [9] In 1989, Casio released another important wristwatch; the F-91W, the most sold wristwatch in the world with an annual production of 3 million units. [10] Size: 50.5 x 50.4 x 13.5 millimeters (versus 48.9 x 42.8 x 13.4 for the DW-5600). Those who find the 5600 series too small may prefer this larger size. The larger size of this watch also means larger digits on the display. The watch also has bigger buttons that are operable with gloves.

If there is one thing that is great about Casio watches, it is the fact that they produce good quality, durable, functional watches at extremely affordable prices. The Casio DW290 is one such watch.

In conclusion, the Seiko DW290-1V is a valuable tool for the garage. It’s a tough, Craftsman-like tool that does its job without too much fanfare, it looks decent and one can wear it in the shower after a day’s work in the garage. I think it’s an excellent value. If I were to lay it on the ground and accidentally run over it with the LeMans, I would replace it with the exact same watch. Nevertheless, let’s find out for sure. We are going to be looking into this watch by examining the build quality, design, features, and pricing. After it is all said and done, we should be able to come to a reasonable conclusion about this watch.I was going to try a pencil eraser myself today -- the paint was a little stubborn on ONE of the four painted areas, so I had to rub harder, and now that one spot is a little shinier than the rest of the watch. No I did not use spray paint. Honestly, my lettering came off with dust, dirt, sweat, soap and water in the shower after doing yard work (mowing, edging the walk, trimming the shrubs, etc.). Now that we’ve covered the basics, we can get into the depth of this review. The first aspect of this watch that we are going to look at is the build quality. Build Quality BTW, just for additional info, if the plastic bezel part become shiny, you can use pencil eraser to dull them up..
