Casio DW291H Quartz Digital "Heavy Duty" HD Watch In Depth Review

[@slowbluesmaster]

You're a beacon of light among all those YT watch reviewers. No pretence, no snobbery, just Casio quartz. Kudos!

[@GoodTimekeeper]

My guiding principle seems to have always been based on the question of "What would I have wanted to know about this thing before I bought it?" I don't consider myself an online "Influencer". I'm not trying to sell anything. I just want the things I'm interested in to remain alive and well so I can still enjoy them. And I want to inform others who would be interested too (which helps those things I talk about to remain "alive and well"). So... it would be pointless for me to be a snob or to insist that others obey my commands or anything else like that. Thanks for "getting" what this channel is about.

​@@GoodTimekeeper Thank you.

[@vedshukla2286]

Very aptly put! 👌👏

[@jesusgarcia9351]

Just today, I'm wearing the red one at work. Bought it for 18 euros two years ago and still going strong. It's imposible to find a better constructed and feature packed watch in the market. It even has an internal steel ring in the case to give it more resistance and a double joint inside the pushers. It's better constructed than some new g-shocks.

[@Bakamoona78]

Casio cannot be beaten when it comes to affordable rock solid watches. I absolutely love them!!

[@albert09]

An excellent watch. Is one of my favorite Casio watches. I own the red & the black color variants. You get a lot for your money. Close in toughness to a G-Shock. A must have in a Casio collection.

[@17cmmittlererminenwerfer81]

Greg, you're amazing - nobody else mentioned the demo mode, only you. Glad I tuned in. Picked up a couple of these recently - they're exceptional, among the most useful of my (many) Casios.

[@jasonclarke7422]

Everything has gone up apart from our wages. Great review, I may very well get myself one of these DW291h to add too my Casio collection that my wife does not understand 😂

[@7775Kevin]

I love this watch. Fits my larger wrist well and works great. I have several GShocks and this watch compares pretty well with them. Not as tough I know but it feels solid.

[@cootha8631]

Greg, there's two more models - the two DW-291HX's. Different colours and longer straps. You'll need to get those two as well to complete the collection 😀

[@_.n8t.a1exa._99]

I love this model, DW 291HX with the blue, silver, and black. Of the extra long double strap.

[@vornwend]

Great review. I really like this watch. I modded mine (the gold version) slightly by removing the "Illuminator" and "200M" lettering and buffed the case a bit to give it a patina - really pleased with how it looks

[@goodnota]

Classic ones are the best, just bought red & classic and left the classic ones, absolute bang for buck (had mine for $20 new).

[@JasonTheWatchGuy]

These are 'Baby' G-Shocks to me. A G-Shock on even more of a budget. Nice to have the entire collection, love to collect Casio

[@sylvainster30]

I really like the color of the screen! Looks like my square sand and land! The G-Shock king with that gold screen is sooooo nice !! ✌🏼😎👍🏼

[@Ritzasone]

Have this preferred from other versions loved this goldish colour, in Europe it's double the price ,bought it for 45 euro.

[@jeffreylebowski1240]

Yeah can't beat the gold one for sure!

[@LCerca]

Another great video. I would be very interested in seeing content with your take on other cost effective Casios such as the FW91 and F108WH.

[@goodnota]

oooh, explore the W-59, the grandpa of 'em all :) Circa1982

[@RichardSherris]

These are definitely on my future shopping list,very informative as always greg, didn't realise you are in utah,went there back in the 90s,how are the grizzlies getting on, keep up the good work mate,say hello to utah from the UK

[@dodopuipui1440]

This casio actually have 5 versions available (as for today). You only missing the DW-291HX-5A (brown strap), and the DW-291HX-1A (black strap, but with clear face). Do you plan to get it?

[@GottaGeek]

There is 4 of them. Still missing one

[@NathanChisholm041]

The red ones the one to go for! Also why the late upload from 2022?

[@GoodTimekeeper]

I made this video and then got busy doing lots of other things before I posted it. But I eventually released it! I hope there isn't quite that much delay moving forward. I already have another video ready to launch this coming week.

[@mikes.4136]

Excellent overview of the W 291H. Casio’s Heavy Duty line provides an excellent value and fairly, rugged watch. Your set is fantastic! Thanks.

[@urielalbertosanchezm]

The DW290 has a "mini digital watch" instead the analog but has just 1 alarm and no WT

[@Emilmarch]

ok, you synced all perfectly but red and gray shows the day date but the gold screen one shows london time :D.

[@watchguy5675]

HI Greg, your watch channel is cool! Just a little suggestion, I think your audience would be interested to watch your activity checking out and purchasing watches at Walmarts.

[@12ent12]

Like your reviews

[@brianfromireland]

There is two or 3 more variants now, I always use the recently released option on Amazon to find the latest offers. Thanks for video

[@GoodTimekeeper]

Those are nice variants. I have to admit I missed those before folks started leaving comments on this video (I thought the three I have were the only color options). I wonder if they'll show up at the local Walmart stores soon or if I'll have to just search for them online.

[@jrbruno1339]

Thanks very understandable. I set my watch with the right day of the week.thanks very much.

Lost in space “Robot watch”. 🔥

[@pixiv9823]

I liked your reviews

[@genezeigler2252]

We need dimensions Greg!

[@_GALLINA]

very cool alternative to a GS, big, strong and ... CASIO

[@bullcooper70]

It has a metal ring inside.

[@IjazAhmad-xn9pf]

Nice casio collection 🎉 ❤

[@danyal-afk9132]

This watch no have snooz alarm???

[@Eeshae]

We need a review of the casio step-tracker watches

[@SirRambech]

Probably the casio i wear the most (black one). The only drawback is that I somehow unwillingly keep hitting the mode or search button, so often when I check the time it’s set to the wrong time zone. Perhaps the buttons are a bit too easy to press. Otherwise a great watch!

[@kennnethbrown7582]

Very nice watches I like two of them I'm going to start me a watch collection

[@pretol2730]

Just an FIY, if you can plop the mechanism of this one into ae1200/ae1300 body... it's a direct fit... very easy mod, if you find this too bulky, and you really like the functionality and the display...

[@hoffmannolsen]

How about a review of the GD-350? Running 5 years on a 2032 coin cell.

[@reggierizaev]

In my opinion is better than G-Shock. Unlike G-Shock these buttons are usable.

[@bngr_bngr]

Totally agree plus $32 is a steal. The big buttons, large numbers, world timers, and multiple alarms than the dw5600. I wish they updated the module and get rid of the analog type display. While using the countdown timer I rather see the time as a display in digital numbers.

[@erik1974Fortal]

I wish there was a smaller version

[@Ronaldbluhm]

It's a good watch don't drop it on the ground just to see if it's shock resistant it might be I just don't understand why they use glass mineral glass for the bezel it could have used plastic but they chose to use glass sometimes I don't understand casio

[@asland408]

Thanks!

[@SuperMrgentleman]

"Maybe not as resistant as a gshock"- sure, but what accidental hazard would destroy any normal Casio digital quartz? Perhaps a topic for another video...

[@GoodTimekeeper]

Yes... I sometimes wonder what kind of abuse would damage a G-Shock without also significantly injuring the person wearing the watch.

[@SuperMrgentleman]

@@GoodTimekeeper If it can survive my two year old daughter pulling it off the counter and slinging it around on the ground it's good enough for me!

[@Guy_P]

Easy: banging it on a pole, on a train, while you hurry to the nearest door to get out, because the one you stood in front of wasn't working. Been there.

[@Four-J67]

A new color came out recently

[@ob4149]

Which color?

[@Four-J67]

DW-291HX-5AV DW-291HX-1AV

[@NathanChisholm041]

@@Four-J67 That's cool looking version. I like the sand colour...

[@GoodTimekeeper]

Those are nice color options. I have to admit I missed those before folks started leaving comments on this video (I thought the three I have were the only color options). I wonder if they'll show up at the local Walmart stores soon or if I'll have to just search for them online.

[@talhakonjic3197]

hey greg whats up man how you doin these days

[@GoodTimekeeper]

Honestly, I have become very, very busy at my "day job" but I still enjoy making these videos too. If I'm not totally consistent with how often I release a new video just please be patient. I'm bound to make another video eventually.

[@carltonbirds]

Very lovely.

[@Anas_Bucky]

This watch suitable for small wrist

[@rohansangle7777]

7inch or above

[@tonychen3368]

Hmm……. Very, very bulky. Not bad, those watches look nice!

[@kennnethbrown7582]

I'm in Virginia

[@useruser2101]

That is cheap bro. I buy mine in Singapore that cost me $50.

[@trevorstepoo8838]

With President Biden prices going up and keep going up

[@pretol1]

If only it didn't have the ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS plastic blobs around the buttons... it already has the "analog" clock that's borderline gimicky, but it's actually pretty much a practical design, but the button bulges with the ridges, put this watch in the space toy category.
