AE1000W Series | Men’s Digital Watch | 100M WR | Multi Alarms | 100 SEC Stopwatch | Countdown Timer | World Map for World Time | LED Light | LC Analog Display | 10 Year Battery

I have been purchasing Casio watch products for over 25 years now. Their watches are low cost and nicely designed. I was not let down when I received this watch and all for 18 dollars. The watch is nice looking, has mostly usable features which fulfills its purpose. For a watch that costs under 20 dollars this is a great knock-around piece that can be worn in any setting. Whether hiking/climbing in the woods, fixing the car, swimming or just plain rough housing with my kids, having a low cost and functional watch that fits all my needs really makes this product a great buy. This Casio comes with several functions: 1) You can track up to 4 different time zones. Since I do a fair amount of business travel (about 1x a month), I am constantly in different time zones. Now I can set them easily. 2) The watch has a manual DST setting which I don't mind. It's literally a push of a button. 3) It is water resistant to 10 Bar. This means swimmers, surfers, etc... can use this watch with confidence. 4) It comes with a typical alarm. I always make sure I know how to turn this off, because you know somehow some 2 or 3 year old will get it and find a way to turn on the alarm so that it wakes you and 0200 in the morning. 5) Stop watch. Not much to say here. I use it for running/walking Cons: A couple of oddball design features that are difficult to see. 1) The upper right hand circle is actually a visual of an analogue watch, so that if you look at another time zone besides the one that you set for your home city, you can get a quick view of the time. Not so easy to see. 2) The time zone characterization is also difficult to see and not so sure it is necessary, since the back of the directions lists out the cities you can use to select the proper time zones. So this may not be a "smart" watch which seems to be very popular these days, but I will say the price makes it very worth while. If you need a knock-around that looks nice and has the core functions you need, I think you will be very satisfied with this product. You know... maybe some things don't need to be smart. Enjoy!

Bought for my 10 year old son. Great quality and durability. Easy functions, and easy to set.

I bought both watches (AE-1200 and AE-1000) at the same time. These watches have the same functionality, but they have slightly different form factors and slightly different face layouts. First, the differences. The AE-1200 is slightly more square and a little smaller. The AE-1000 seems to be a little more readable and more eye-pleasing to me. Second, things in common. These watches have a countdown timer (but no auto repeat function), a stopwatch, 4 local times, world time, and 5 alarms. For me personally, the countdown timer is my most used function. The auto repeat function would be really nice but is missing from these models. I seldom use the alarms, so 5 alarms is really overkill. 2 would be plenty. The small (semi-)analog display is a cool idea, but it is generally too small for me to read in most light conditions. My eyes aren't as good as they used to be, so this may not be an issue for younger people. The small world time map is pretty much the same thing - too small to be of much use. Which is too bad because these 2 things take up about 50% of the display area. All said they are nice watches, with good functionality, and are a good value for the price.

This is an amazing watch. I used the same watch for 15 years and in 2025 I bought it again after the older one was damaged due to some aggressive chemical. I live in the East Coast of the US and I have friends and family in different parts of Europe. I regularly check the time over there. I use the timer for when I am brushing my teeth. I use the stopwatch when I brew coffee. I use the alarms for my daily short walks and to wake up. I had to remove two sections of the strap to make it a good fit for my wrist. You may need to do that as well. All around it is just an excellent watch. Casio is of course amazing with quality. I would recommend it to anyone. I know smart watches are getting more and more common but trust me, one less device to charge regularly is a better improvement in your life than anything else.

Very nice watch and good deal. This watch was in excellent condition and looked great after I modified it.

I would say this is a mini computer and I keep wondering how could they put these many functions inside this small watch and offering it for 15 dollars.I'm blown away by this wonderful product and this is my favorite watch all the time and I rarely wear my other watches. Isn't this amazing that it got the time for close to 50 cities and I can select 4 of them in T1(Home City), T2, T3 and T4 to easily flip through using the bottom right button. This functionality helped me a lot during my 2 international trips through multiple transits. Before the departure I select all the Cities that I'm transiting through so that I can easily flip to that time zone when I land in that airport and I do not need to rely on airport clock or internet to know the time and calculating the time left for catching my connecting flight. I love this watch especially for this functionality. While scrolling through the time zones for selection the tiny world map in the watch will blink the specific geographical area for that time zone. The capabilities of this watch does not end here, It has lot more to offer. We can program 5 daily or one time alarms into this tiny piece. Stopwatch, Counter, 12 or 24 hour time format, Day light saving ON or OFF which simplifies the time setting when the DST switches. We can set it to signal a beep for every hour. There is digitally displayed manual clock at the top right corner which will display your home country time stored in the T1 timezone. When I go on an international trip, I flip the digital display to local time(T2-T4) and will refer the home city time(T1) in the manual clock. The watch is really durable, light weight, stylish, sporty, water proof, 10 years battery life and comes with a detailed instruction for setting up each and every functionality of this watch.What more can I expect for a 15 dollar watch. My impression to buy this watch happened after seeing one my friends wearing it. I bought one for me and 3 more for giving it as gift. My friend lost it twice and bought the same watch 3rd time which proves how much he also likes it. The last thing that I want to say is, I don't like the fancy brands which charge their customers just for the sake of their brand name or fancy packaging and offer noting more than a normal brand offers. I always prefer quality over show off so I picked this Casio watch. I really appreciate that CASIO believed in quality and functionality and not on fancy packaging. I feel really bad that I'm writing this review after 1.5 years of my purchase and I should have done it long back. I highly recommend this watch for everyone and I'm sure you will never be disappointed.

Nice watch typical Casio quality for a excellent price

On the face of it (heh heh) this COULD be a really great watch for travel and day to day use. It has a timer, a stopwatch, alarms, built in world time, dual time, it's waterproof and made of plastic. I've had it nearly a year now with daily use and it's not even dinged up or scratches on the face. So, for $17 you might say (as I did) wow! What's the down side? There are actually three, one big and two small. The biggest issue is that the buttons are too easy to press accidentally, especially the time zone one, which changes the main display time. If you wear the watch on your left arm, it's pressed against your wrist if you flex your hand. If you reach into your pocket, the button is easily pressed. If your watch catches against anything, the time zone button gets pressed. More times than I can count, the time changes on me randomly, and you usually don't realize it unless you're looking very closely at the zone indicator. Sure it's easier to realize an hour difference when you're in your own time zone in your own routine, but when traveling in different time zones this is a huge problem. Second, the "home time" dial is extremely difficult to read. The hands are hair thin and look just like the refer marks on the face, making it very confusing without very close inspection in good light. I ignored this warning from other reviewers, dismissing them as old blind people or something. But, as with old blind people in movies, they were wise and should have been heeded! Third, the illuminator light is totally useless. Totally. Do not expect to know what time it is in the dark if you're relying on this watch (unless you also have a flashlight). All of these issues have been mentioned in other reviews and should be considered before buying. If you can live with these, then it's a great watch. But If you can't, you've been warned...

I ordered this watch without realising it's from US. And it arrived within a week. Super. The watch is worth it's price, light and easy to set.

super

I love this watch from its gold trim to its classic casio features like Backlight, Timer, Stopwatch, 5 Alarms and the World Time feature! This watch is awesome and a bargain for all the features you get.

Très bonne qualité

恥ずかしながら、8年以上前に購入した商品についての今更のレビューです。電池は一度も交換していませんが、しっかりと動作しています。ライトも明るく点きます。この品物の良さはコストパフォーマンスの高さに あると思います。細かな機能は商品紹介を見て頂くとして、まずは軽くて見やすいところが気に入っています。他の方のレビューを拝見しますと、ベルト交換で苦労された方が結構いらっしゃる様ですが、私は電気工事の傍ら時計の電池交換やベルト調整等の仕事をしていましたので、それほど苦はありませんでした。値段が安いので仕事中に使うのにピッタリでした。でも、キズがつくと惜しいと思う程気に入っていました。
