This watch has two hidden functions that can be unlocked using a soldering iron. A timer (one-shot and continuous!) and five alarms. To unlock them, it's necessary to disassemble the module and switch two jumpers on the PCB (their exact positions depend on the version, there are at least two versions).

@@Bear-1080 This problem has at least three different causes. 1. Broken piezo beeper (or detached from the case back): replace the case back. 2. Bad contacts between the module and the case back: check and align them. 3. Broken inductor coil in the sound circuit: replace it by a coil from any other similar watch. Typical parameters: 20..40 mH, 120..240 Ω. To check, take a multimeter in resistance mode and check the sound output contact against the module frame, you should see 120..240 Ω.

There's also a more complicated modification that i didn't do, which adds more alarms to the modes, I also bought a SKMEI 1335, with a Black stainless steel bracelet, because the bracelet fits and matches this Casio perfectly. When you modify a watch like this, it does make you quite attached to the watch.

Love my W800H, for me the most of the G-Shocks are a bit too big and I think this bridges the gap between a square and the F91. I opted to purchase the model with the yellow/gold striping and modified it by adding a nice 2-piece olive nylon band and played with the module to add countdown timer functionality. All in all the watch looks great (that band helps it a LOT), has lots of functionality, offers good water resistance, and has a 10 year battery life. SOLD.

Finally, it's easy to toss onto a cheap 18mm NATO strap. Looks a bit Big Head Todd intially but it grows on you.

Recently picked it up on a whim, as I was shopping for a first watch for my kid and this just appealed to me. I have one of the newer color ways with the gray case and quite enjoy the design and styling. I really love the layout of the watch face and display. It's just the right kinda busy and the spacing makes handy at a glance. My wrist size is ballpark 7" and I do think you'd have a hard time with a smaller wrist, as you'd likely see the band wrapping around almost to the lugs. That being said, it's very comfortable, the right mix of 80's retro and modern for me, and a solid set of features. 100% agree that the main improvement would be multiple alarms and the countdown timer built in. I paid $22 currently and would pay $30 for those extra features to be included, but that's definitely a want and not a need.

I find the display on this watch very easy to read and at my age that is a plus for a digital watch.

I buy screen protectors for those crystals. They work great.

Hi Jodi, I bought this a month ago based on your videos and I love it!! I think it's great looking and I am addicted to Casios now. I've bought another 10 of them!!

I'm waiting on a Casio F-201WA I've just ordered. Very similar to the W-800H but with 5 alarms and a countdown timer, and better looking imho. Only water resistant though.

F-201WA is my favourite. Much nicer font and great pushers.

Yep, spot on . Good spec, good back light and battery life... I was actually considering getting it. So thanks for the review. You've addressed my concerns. Its shape is 'awkward'. I still prefer my flat, sleek f91w.

The nice thing about these Casios is that they come in plenty of color schemes. Something for everybody form conservative all black to flashy orange if that's your thing! I've been eyeing the W800 and some of it's close cousins for some time now... I have an itch for an all digital display watch and I know for sure it's gonna be a Casio. Question is: which one? I'm torn between all these cheap ones and the G-Shock 7700 or 7710 (love the week display on the G-Shock, and it actually comes in very handy for me). Excellent video as always!

I think it looks quite nice, and great value! The snooze facility would be useful :) I wish Casio would add an option to change the date to the European way, day first then month. Cheers, Jodie!

Band wasnt long to me, didnt come close to fitting my 8.5" wrist - had to use metal Jays & Kays adapters that allowed me to use a black 22mm band that looks and feels WAY better than the cheap casio strap, last MUCH longer too. Far as the watch I love my 800H, lots of info at a glance and decent size digits.

Another great review Jody! I would like to ask, where in Scotland do you come from? I love your accent. I live on the Borders, and often pop up into Scotland whenever I'm tired of England (I'm English myself but cheer for Wales). I particularly like the "Muckle Toon", Langholm. I'm a Casio fan, too - my sports watch is an ancient Baby G that my Grandad bought for me years ago. It takes a kickin' and keeps on tickin'.

You really need to check out the f94w I fell in love with this watch as long as you can find it for 15 it less soon ebay

I like my Skmei 1894 with proper 22mm spring bar straps. Easy to change out. Great light. 50m water resistance.

I just bought w-800-1bvcf (blackout). Looks way better. I love it.

I found the included band kept unclasping on me when moving around such as mowing the lawn. The thin NATO band I ordered would not fit well since spring bars are too close to the case and I finally settled on a rubber strap on clearance for $1 at Wally World. Its been good since.

Mine arrived today. Like it. Another KZbin-r review has a mod. Random Rob revealed the hidden countdown timer - remove a bit of soldering.
@egliyoflo3 жыл бұрын
Out of the three watches that you showed the W800H looked the best imo, classic and timeless style for this proper watch.

As a police officer I need a rugged and reliable watch with a good back light. My Casio w800-h has been in multiple scraps and just keeps coming back for more. I’m also a watch nerd. I like all of the fancy, sparkly, mechanical watches. Love them in fact, but this little Casio is one I’ll never get rid of!
