I love the black version one it looks 🆒

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

I like that one too. Thanks!

[@LawStudentsNightmare]

I have the gold one. I really love it and for me I think the buttons in the front give it character

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

The gold does look really sharp. Thanks for checking out the video!

[@djapojunior]

Awesome watches, love the continued retro vibe Casio is rocking lately!

[@junekateperello6658]

Thanks! Will buy one yey!

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Awesome. They're really fun watches. Thanks!

[@hiroyasuohata3981]

Your review helps me to decide which color I should go. I will buy black one. Thank you.

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Awesome! The black one is my favorite too.

[@kevinwagner9934]

The silver with positive display looks really good. I loved your trip back to the Alien movie scenes. 👍🏻🎯😷🇨🇦

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Hehe. I was just reminiscing with one of my older brothers about it the other day. I'm liking my black version but it is tricky to read. I think I'll add the silver too. Thanks Kevin.😁👍

[@WesWatchRoom]

That's seriously cool, wasn't looking for another casio but I think I might just have found my next one. Thanks for sharing

[@IlluminatingWatches]

Wes - go vintage ! There is some super fun to be had with old Casio digital models from 80s and 90s

[@WesWatchRoom]

@@IlluminatingWatches very true mate, no harm in getting one from each though

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

They're a lot of fun. Thanks Wes.

[@timelesssneakersandwatches]

These are definitely cool pieces 🔥😍

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Thanks Omar 👍

[@bangnapi2786]

The black one is Alien, the Gold C-3PO & the Silver is R2D2😅

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Perfect nicknames for them 😁👍

[@WINDINGCROWNS]

I like all three. I might pick up the silver. Thanks for reviewing. 👍

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Thanks man. Definitely worthwhile if you're thinking about picking one up 👍

[@dad_jokes_4ever226]

I got the black one ., it’s well cool and great value

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Nice. Yes I completely agree. Enjoy yours👍

[@adceal]

These new "old" Casios look like a lot of fun. Very cool. I will surely get one, maybe for Christmas 😄 Great video as always, Bob!

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Hehe. I'd be ok with finding one under the tree 😁👍

[@IlluminatingWatches]

They do look great. Would have loved to get an original , but going to be tricky now (already was to be fair!). More digital content please :)

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

I see 2 on Ebay but I bet this will drive up prices if it hasn't already. Thanks and definitely more digitals coming soon.

[@caravaggio495]

Id like to take the braclet from the pacman model and put it on the silver one 🙈

[@halfpastblog]

Cool watch. 👍

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Thanks Alton 👍👍

[@LeftThumbBreak]

if they'd make these at the same level as the metal G's, I'd have at least a few.

[@DailyMynt]

More than those three models now

[@SoCalWatchReviews]

B-Roll for days 👏

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Thanks Miguel 😁🙏

[@wayneparker5099]

Is the black gun metal color of the A100WEGG clearly different from silver of the A100WE-1A? Or it's not really much different? I wanna make a prop replica of Alien watch, and if attaching these two Casios with orange flame a subtle difference of color does stand out?

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Side by side it's quite a bit darker. Fair amount of contrast between the two.

[@onlywithvic]

I want to get the gold one but my wrist is thinner, where would you advise I take it if I need to take out some links?

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Hi there. Not sure where you're located but if you search watch repair in your area you should be able to find someone.

[@Frantixj]

Is it possible to take the bracelet off and put on a leather strap? My friend has an old seiko, big similar to casio ae-1200. looks rad!

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

There's not a whole lot of clearance between the springbar and the case but as long as the leather isn't to thick you should be able to pull it off.

[@Frantixj]

@@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces yeap, I bought a Casio 1200 today, exactly like you said - couldnt put a nato strap but a normal strap fit nicely!

[@marcelovasconcellos6067]

Had a laugh with your stories. Might have stabbed my brothers' hands (with a pen) too, lol. So many Casios on the to buy list. Might have to buy the gold one as I've never had a gold digital. Thanks for all your content!

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Lol! Yeah things got a little dangerous there after that movie for awhile :) The gold is really cool. Thanks Marcelo.

[@zillsburyy1]

i tried but i couldnt do it

[@rag_man673]

So what are the chances of re-releasing the watch from Alien? Or am I going to have to buy 2 and make my own?

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

I actually came across someone that had made the orange strap and was selling them at one point when I was researching for this video. I don't believe they sell them anymore but that would be a cool project.

[@kenlivingston3111]

I picked up the silver one,did you notice that there is no screws on the back cover🤔 When you need to replace the battery how does the back come off🤔

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

I believe it's a snap caseback. Looks like there's a spot near the lugs where you can fit a small screwdriver to pry open the caseback.

[@kenlivingston3111]

@@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces Thanks I figured something like that,I guess when it comes time to change battery you gotta be a little careful not scratch it up. Thanks for the tip

[@steelsteez6118]

@@kenlivingston3111 This guy shows you how to take it off just skip to 8:44 kzbin.info/www/bejne/eavXe6GnbspqbNU The video is in spanish but the demonstration is great

[@boyansanchez]

Are we able to change the strap to leather ones ?

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

I haven't tried but I think you should be able to fit a leather strap.

[@rag_man673]

Indecently... the F100 was discontinued the same year the movie came out.

[@AK-ct9pd]

F-91WG-9 Forever

[@AlecGrinage]

I’m confused. Is there a calendar function or no?

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

It does have a calendar. Made this video awhile back but I might have forgotten to mention it.

[@phoephoe111]

To most people, it’s a normal vintage digital watch. To alien fans, it’s the Ripley watch. Either way it’s awesome.

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

Yep. I totally agree.

[@phoephoe111]

@@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces It took 3 weeks to get here but I just received my silver one today, love it!

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

@@phoephoe111 Nice. Congrats on getting one.

[@Tattieboggle]

Just got mine. No 24hr function! Cant believe it

[@Wanderings-1]

I bought two to replicate the Ripley watch from Alien and planned to have one 12 hour and the other 24. Pretty rubbish that it doesn’t do this.

[@MrJustinUSCM]

I’m going into the military soon and I’m a fan of Alien, so I thought it’d be cool to get this one if it had 24hr time. I guess I’ll just have to stick with the classic f91w, it’s much cheaper anyways. Thanks for this comment.

[@ibizajunkie]

Make it in metal and 20% bigger.

[@tyronealfonso]

Dig these watches but I swim a lot so no good for me.

[@Frantixj]

Weird that stores describe them as women's watches while they look pretty unisex...hmm

[@Hialeah1925]

Watch was released in 1977

[@3rdpig]

I think it's great that Casio is releasing things like this for collectors. And while they're cool because of the retro factor, any current Casio is a better watch with more features...and costs less too.

[@TimeToGoTravelAndTimepieces]

I'm liking these a whole lot but it's definitely a little light on functions compared to watches like the World time and others that are even more affordable. Thanks.

[@stavros_katsopr]

NO NO NO NO NO NO !!!!!! Took me years to forget loosing my precious coins just because a BLOODY button "didn't get pushed" (my @ss, i pushed it alright!). IF (i say if....) i just sense something like this happening again, i would take this watch off my wrist and "push" it down the floor till it goes "BEEEPH#$%^^&*(*^^*(@@#@$ "!!!!!!! And dead flat !!!!!! [good gosh mate, you woke up a child in me... 🤪🤣🤣🤣] Be well Bob, but that kid is gone, lost in time, so are the memories. Cheers mate, enjoy (the childhood flashback 😜)

[@yoinkhaha]

Awesome looking watch, but overpriced. Why pay as much as a G-Shock for this when you can get a beautiful and more versatile AW168 for 25 bucks any day of the week? We have to draw a line in the sand with Casio and all of their backcatalogue gouging aimed at trendy millennials.

[@spaceman022]

Just got one of these and it feels very cheap,thinking about returning it lol

[@lllllllllllllllllllll1lll1]

Picked one up, new for $45. Imo, worth it at the ~$50 price point. MSRP is a tad higher than I'd pay.

[@alexmasters6015]

Ugly as sin in the flesh! I've had dozens of Casio's over the years, & this is a Christmas cracker SKMEI quality wise. Bring back the Marlin digitals. Now they make a lot of sense. But I can't see the appeal to anyone other than a ten year old. Made in China. I'm sure SKMEI will come up with a $10 lookalike. Which is all this is worth!!! 😡😡😡👎👎👎

[@hearmenow909]

These are better suited for women, they're far too small on the wrist to be a man's watch.

[@_zigger_]

not every man has working peasant wrists like yours
