Just bought this A158 and a F91W to celebrate a new job this August. I was already looking for a smaller digital classic as a retro thrill since I'm 37 and I grew up around digital Casio watches! The backlight is fine! It looks awful on camera but in person it's adequate and it doesn't burn your eyes in the dark. Also, I gave the F91W to my 10 y/o daughter and she's in love with it!

Fun fact, someone put this watch to the test underwater and it died at about 150m, so the 30m splash resistance is way more than that. You can safely go swimming with it. Basically, the LCD died between 150 and 200m, but the watch was bone dry, the light was working, it was still beeping and stuff. Safe for diving.

I bought mine off eBay as a non-runner with the seller saying it had been in a drawer for over 10 years. Got it, pressed the buttons and it came back to life, no need to change the battery or not yet anyway. I own the a159wge and the legendary f91w and this watch sits between the two very nicely, it doesn't look rugged and it's not too in your face either. It's bossy without being blingy and a very welcome addition to my Casio watch collection.

For the brushed finish on the band, an easy fix would be polishing it with some Cape Cod cloth (following the grain). I did it and it matches the finish on the case. And with the now polish finish along with the cheap durability with the material makes it hard for significant scratches to appear from average daily use as they blend in with what's left of the brushed finish. If you don't like those scratches on the band just hit it with Cape Cod cloth again (not for the case tho, it would be ruined easily)

I owned one as a kid and I loved it. Seriously? Black Resign is now a "Dad Watch," I didn't get the memo!! All jokes aside good review As everyone else stated I am 31. I have several affordable watches I cycle through my collection but I may get rid of some. I hate the back light which is the only reason I don't own one.

Just bought one to use as a yard watch or to use when on vacation (whenever we get to have vacations again). It's great. I do wish the backlight was better, but I like the face lettering of the 158 over the busier 168. The bracelet and the overall light weight makes it a very pleasant watch to wear. I rummaged to the bottom of one of my watch boxes the other day and realized that I still have a 90s Data Bank model in black that probably just needs a new battery. May try to revive that one. My GOOD digital watch is a dual alarm plus chime Citizen, all steel, that I bought in Chicago about 1983 - it still functions perfectly. Ben, nice job on the reviews, I like your comments and the nice videography, I'll keep watching.

First of all: in my opinion, EVERY watch from Casio is a classic. They just can't seem to make anything else. You mentioned that G-Shocks are too big for you. I'm a huge person, and one of the many reasons I like G-Shocks is that they do fit my hands and wrists very nicely. (Except that the straps could be just a bit longer, but that's true of all brands for me.) With watches as with so many things, one size does not fit all. The main thing, though, is to have a watch you love, and don't worry what anyone else thinks of it. I've seen very small people pull off very large watches with no problem, and vice versa. Well, that's just my opinion. One opinion also does not fit all, I suppose.

LOL @ the Archie clip! I have the A168W with the slightly better backlight but, no question, this watch is cool. Great value as well. Also, if you're a function-first kind of person who doesn't spend a lot of time in the water this could be almost the ultimate tool watch: time (with 12/24 hour display), date, alarm/reminder, chronograph/stopwatch, backlight, reasonable water resistance, excellent timekeeping, and virtually zero maintenance. Plus it's kind of stylish in an angular 80s sort of way. Although I've got higher end watches, I'm also a massive fan of these inexpensive Casios. Two thumbs up and zero complaints.

This watch belongs under the cool category. It isn't classy when compared to a Seiko or Rolex, BUT for somebody going in for their first job interview it is a great way to add a touch of class without looking pretentious. It also would look great for a young man going on a first date. I'm 37, so this watch isn't really for me, but is a great fit for my son. It is a cool watch for someone between 12 and 25 IMO.

I have a F91wm but early 2020 i accidently ruin the inside of the watch and it died .left it for almost a year until im walking and noticed a casio watch that i dont know if its fake or not ,the modul have the same yellow light , sama features,but it doesnt display the "CAsio " but it past the other genuine check.when i searched online someone on a website said that the early module doesnt display the "CAsio" .so when i got home i took my old f91wm case and fit the module inside and surprisingly it fits and works like a normal casio without the "CAsio" test.As the result i am bery happy that i could enjoy my F91wm again because it is the perfect slim digital watch .i had a gshock ,samsung galaxy watch and other watches but not as comfortable as the f91wm. I might look for another casio such as the a169 or the AE series.

I'm 51 yrs old & I own watches that range in "quality" and price-- from vintage & new Seikos, to Bulovas, Swiss Army, Timex, vintage Swatches, and even a 60's era Prisma mechanical... By far, though, my Casio digitals and ana-digis have more features, cost less, are easier to see, & (in some cases) are tougher-- i.e. my G-100 G-shock... And, if not, they're all-too-easily replaced if they get beat up... All I have to do is glance at my wrist to know the time, day & date-- and all at the same time; which is something very few analog watches do... ...even fewer do it at the same price-point as my digital Casios... ☺

I haven't had a digital watch in years, but gave into to the urge to pick up another one...the 158. Love it and quite a bargain. I decided on the metallic version because I'm wary of the plastic band on the other version. I had another Casio model some years earlier that had a plastic band that failed--started coming apart--in under two years. So no plastic banded Casios for me.

Bought one of these today, but with a gold/yellow-ish front. Really cool vintage-looking watch. Much easier to just glance at my wrist than dig out my phone when I need to quickly tell the time.

It's cool. I've had one for a few years, and now it's in my wife's collection. It is a watch that can be easily matched with any outfit. I really like it, and it's hard to match the quality / price ratio.

Great video, Ben, which stands the test of time even now in 2023. There are so many Casio watches in this price range. I am picking some up for my new Casio collection. I think I will go for the A700 though based upon your review of that watch.

If you think that light is weak, you should take a look at my japanese W39's one from the eighties. Unfortunately, I recently destroyed the glass on that W39 after a battery replacement and no one seem to sell parts for these watches. I could buy this newer version, though I know for sure It's not that good in terms of case and electronics. Thanks for the review.

Some people talk about the light, the water resistance and they end up buying g shocks or other watches unneccessarily.. the f91 and this a158w is already perfect for most of our daily activities unless, of course, if you are a secret agent or a military diver. It looks damn good, classy, nostalgic, wears very comfortably, fuss free and simple to use..

I think the size of this is both a pro and a con, it fits my wife’s wrist perfectly but I prefer the slightly larger A168 or even better one of the g shock squares

Agree. For me it’s just a tad too small and the backlight isn’t that great so I went with the 168 and love it.
