meawhile casio made overprice resin zinc-alloy case watches in 25 30$ 40$ and people still falling in love with it lol . timex armitron still better for me

[@nobetagear]

Great point…I still love my Casio’s but am starting to greatly appreciate what Timex and Armitron are bringing for the money! Thanks for tuning in!

[@1993reefblue]

You have to pay upwards of 100 bucks to get into stainless with Casio and timex. This watch at under 30 bucks is amazing .

[@asmranna4858]

Bought me as an alternative to Casio for no apparent reason . Thank you !

[@nobetagear]

Awesome, hard to beat this watch for the price…more Armitron watches coming for me as well. Thanks for tuning in!

I am from the UK and have only just heard about the Armitron brand as they don't have any outlets here in the UK. I recently purchased the Armitron analogue/digital 'Ridgemont' watch and it really is a watch being fully stainless steel and a really good quality 20mm strap similar to your 'Rubik'. In reviews of the 'Rubik on KZbin they say it has mineral crystal glass and isn't acrylic. As the 'Rubik' is on sale at the moment on Amazon US for £32 I will be placing an order in for it. Thanks for your review and unboxing it certainly looks amazing for the price.

[@nobetagear]

Awesome feedback, thanks so much for watching!

Wearing the Casio A168 for the EL backlight. But I've been looking at these for the feel of steel. Thanks for the friendly look around.

[@nobetagear]

Absolutely, thanks for watching!

[@jerryh.miller1704]

Great watch. Backlight just like it was on the one I owned n the 80s. Stayed true to the original I think. Thanks for the review.

[@brianfromireland]

Great review, I got two different variations of this last week, have one on a rubber strap which worked out well

[@nobetagear]

These watches are great, definitely going to be picking up some more variations soon. Thanks for tuning in!

[@magochrome1944]

Great review of a cool watch, Chapeau!

[@nobetagear]

Thanks for watching!

[@armendarizosvaldo26]

Incredible watch I like it.

[@nobetagear]

Awesome, thanks for watching!

[@ghylarson6359]

Cool little watch. I don't view the acrylic crystal as a negative on an inexpensive watch, easy to polish out scratches with polywatch. Can't do that with mineral crystal. I bought the armitron Griffy, fun Iittle retro, might have to get this one too. Cheers.

[@nobetagear]

Great call, definitely agree thanks for tuning in!

[@ziadkhattab6509]

Hi guys. I have one of these too. I don't think it's an acrylic crystal. I think it's glass/ mineral of some kind. Adds to the value of the watch and makes it more premier in my opinion.

[@Thomas-fl2jn]

It has a mineral crystal, not a acrylic. I’ve got two of them an checked it out.

[@michaelk487]

cool❤❤

[@bbishop2009]

wonder how long the alarm goes and volume compared to a Casio a158 for example

[@valengreymoon5623]

I wouldn't be surprised if that bracelet is the same one used on some Casio models.

[@nobetagear]

I really like these Armitron watches and of course, Casio’s… Both awesome brands! Thanks for tuning in!

[@onenakedalien]

You can get a light extender for better lighting

[@RobertNES816]

For once a backlight worse then the Casio F91w and W158 lol.

[@nobetagear]

Absolutely agreed, this watch would be so awesome with a modern EL or LED backlight…thanks for tuning in!

[@user-me9em9vy6v]

Subbed, keep it up!

[@nobetagear]

Much appreciated!

[@naiyang888]

Casio needs to step it up.

[@teriday954]

Yes it is considered retro, but Casio are still bringing out brand new models hardly different from this

[@nobetagear]

Great feedback, thanks!

[@kevinb871]

Yes but this has a steel case where you have to pay way more for that in a Casio. I love my casios but I wish they had stainless steel cases at a better price

[@kevinb871]

Are the links solid or rolled
