Jason The Watch Guy I foolishly sold mine during a clear-out as I have a few G-shocks in the collection . They’re better watches in theory yet somehow spend their time in a display case. W218 is definitely superior if not as over-engineered. Maybe that’s the reason.

Casio came out with it because the F91 to many people felt like a kid’s or women’s size watch and they wanted something bigger and more rugged and it delivered. The smaller watch will still be available to people who want a more petite watch but now there is choice so you can pick what suits you best.

I liked your review about the Depth Charge Diver and thinking about that too.

I own this watch, and love it. Own too many other watches, some are automatics that require more care. This one is really the best wear and forget watch. The G-Shocks are bulky, less comfortable and buttons on G-Shock are so recessed that it is hard to push them. On the other hand the F91 is legendary Casio, and great for a teenager to wear but looks anemic on the wrist. The light on F91 is very weak, outdated. W218H strikes perfect balance between the Gorilla feel of 5600 G-Shock and tiny feel of F91. I just wish the lug width for the strap was 20mm so we can wear with standard nato style straps.
